His sudden acceptance of an interview on a talk show broadcast on online platforms has attracted considerable attention from the media and the public. James Haven said he always feels happy and cherishes the time he spends with Jolie’s children. When he is with his grandchildren, James Haven always turns off his phone to ensure his focus on them.
The 50-year-old actor said: “The habit of turning off the phone when I really want to focus when I’m with my loved ones is something I learned from my late mother. In my mother’s time, cell phones weren’t as common as they are now, but whenever she needed to focus on spending time with her children, my mother always made sure that time was respected by turning off the phone.
It made us feel so good to know that during that time, we were the center of our mother’s attention.”
