Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter Vivienne was hospitalised earlier this year for her eating disorder.
The 18-year-old shared her experience through a moving statement displayed at her Los Angeles art exhibition last week, The Tulip Field: A Gallery on Patience of Patients, which ran from November 2 to 8.
“Like many, I have struggled with mental health. I have also struggled with an eating disorder,” she wrote in a statement titled “The Tulip Field.”

“At the beginning of this year, I was hospitalized for my ED,” she revealed, admitting that she was “angry, sick, and very alone.”
However, Vivienne said the kindness of fellow patients and hospital staff “broke down the walls I had built so high.”
“I have never laughed or cried harder, never been more honest or more myself,” she added.
Vivienne also credited the other children with helping her find strength when she needed it most, calling the experience both the worst and best time of her life.
The revelation comes as Vivienne became the former couple’s fourth child to officially drop her dad’s last name.
