A former bodyguard for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has disclosed that the couple was deeply concerned about the potential kidnapping of their six children for ransom. Mark Billingham, a former British Army soldier, shared details about the extensive security measures taken by the stars to ensure their family’s safety.
According to Billingham, the couple, particularly Jolie, was focused on protecting their children from potential threats. He emphasized that the fear of kidnapping was primarily driven by concerns about money.
The couple trusted Billingham with their children and restricted access even to additional security personnel. The added guards could observe the children from a distance but were not allowed physical contact. Billingham spent a significant amount of time around the children and felt like he had a paternal role in their lives.
He mentioned that Pitt and Jolie were constantly vigilant about who had access to their children, to the extent that they were cautious even about additional security professionals. The couple’s dedication to safeguarding their family was evident in the measures they took, and Billingham highlighted that the biggest concern for them was the potential kidnapping of their kids.
Representatives for both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have not commented on these disclosures.
