She's just opened up about her messy divorce with Brad Pitt.
And Angelina Jolie seems to be doing just fine on her own as she munched on a hot pretzel in New York on Wednesday.
The 42-year-old actress looked fantastic as she stepped out in a monochrome ensemble while out and about.
She nearly wore entirely beige including duster coat, top, midi skirt, and patent leather heels.
The Oscar winner did a bit of contrast as she sported a pair of large black designer shades for the occasion.
Angelina's brunette tresses were worn down as she let her natural looks show by going make-up free.
She was definitely friendly to her fans as she even stopped to sign a few autographs before walking into a building for an event.
The outing comes just after revealing that her kids are the best friends she could ever ask for in a candid interview with the New York Times.
The talented actress reflected on the hardships she has faced over the course of her career, but explained that criticism and public perception had no bearing on her as she only cares about the opinion of her kids.
Angelina - who split from husband Brad in September - has children Maddox, 16, and Pax, 13, Shiloh, 11, Zahara, 12, as well as twins Knox and Vivienne, both nine.
Speaking about the strength she found in her children, she explained that they have 'helped' and 'stood by her' in times of crisis.
She reasoned: 'They’re the best friends I’ve ever had.'
The Oscar-winning actress admitted that they had been rallying around each other now more than ever in the wake of her separation.
She explained: 'None of it’s easy. It’s very, very difficult, a very painful situation, and I just want my family healthy.'
With her family on her mind, she has no time to entertain the thoughts of others, as she reasoned that she never expected to be popular.
Defiantly, she explained: 'I never expect to be the one that everybody understands or likes and that’s O.K., because I know who I am, and the kids know who I am.'
Angelina continued her honest discussion about her and Brad's children, telling PEOPLE that her focus is solely on the welfare of their six kids and even stopped work for a year to help them through the stress.
'Everything will be around the children,' she said. 'I haven’t worked for over a year now because they needed me home. Everything was just stopped.
'I’m really sitting and talking with them because everything affects them. Every location, every type of project, I’m going to have to adjust it to however much they can handle.'
Admitting she's a 'little bit stronger' following the split, Angelina added that her and the kids are 'itching' to travel after being on 'lockdown' following the break-up.
She added: 'I think they’re itching to get out in the world again. We’ve all been a bit in lockdown and going through some things. I think it would be good to get out there and play together.'
Her candid confession comes a month after she addressed the split in a in-depth interview for the September issue of Vanity Fair, on newsstands August 4.
