Angelina Jolie has revealed her son Maddox’s study plans amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Her eldest son started university last year at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, but now, with the global health crisis wreaking havoc, the college has been forced to close and courses will continue online.
‘He had to stay back from Korea,’ the 45-year-old actress said of her 19-year-old son.

‘He’s going online, and so I think he starts at 6 p.m. at night.’ she revealed to Extra.
The Maleficent star added that she feels blessed to have all her children at home during the pandemic.
‘They’re all together and it’s a nice big bunch, so everybody’s helping each other out. We’re lucky.’
The Oscar-winning actress adopted Maddox in his native Cambodia when he was just seven months old in 2002.
She is also mom to Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 15, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.
Maddox returned to the US in March with a source telling Us Weekly at the time that the teen planned to focus on his Korean and Russian studies until school reopened.

‘Angelina has the other children on a routine by waking them up early every day and getting them started on their school tasks shortly afterwards.’ the insider added.
Angelina shares her kids with ex-husband Brad Pitt who she was in a relationship with for a decade before they got married in 2014.
They were declared legally divorced in April 2019, but parts of their case remain unresolved.
Angelina filed a request to remove Judge John W. Ouderkirk from their almost four-year-long divorce battle last week, claiming that Ouderkirk – who married the former couple at their French estate Château Miraval in 2014 – failed to disclose other ‘business relationships’ he had with Pitt’s lawyers, suggesting that he would be ‘biased’ in their divorce case.

Pitt, 56, responded in papers filed on August 13, calling Jolie’s filing a ‘Hail Mary’ – an American Football reference to deliberately delay a game – according to legal documents obtained by PEOPLE.
Pitt’s legal team accuses the actress of making a ‘transparently tactical gambit’ to delay matters, adding that it will be their own children who are ‘hurt most’ by the hold up.
Jolie and Pitt, like other high-profile couples, are paying for a private judge in their divorce case to keep many of its filings and the personal and financial details within them sealed, though some legal moves must be made within standard court procedure.
Their custody trial is currently set for October, though it remains to be seen how long proceedings will now be delayed following Jolie’s latest filing.
