Voight 'Hopes' To Meet Jolie's Twins Soon

Angelina Jolie's estranged father Jon Voight is hoping to meet his grandchildren over the festive period - after revealing he still hasn't met his daughter's twins since they were born in July.

The Deliverance star and his Oscar-winning daughter were estranged for years following Voight's decision to go public with his concerns for the actress' mental health.

And although the pair allegedly reconciled recently after six years of not speaking, Voight confesses he still hasn't been able to see the latest additions to Jolie's family with actor Brad Pitt: Knox and Vivienne.

When asked by America's Ok! Magazine if he plans to see the twins at Christmas, "The twins! Holy smokes... I'm hoping, so we'll see."

But despite their strained relationship, Voight is proud of his daughter's maternal achievements - because she is happier than ever with her bustling brood of six kids.

He adds, "I saw her here before the twins came, and she was so happy. I've never seen her that happy. And she's got this beautiful film with Clint (Eastwood) out, so there's going to be a lot of energy around that one as well."
