If Angelina Jolie ignores common sense, as well as the advice of numerous health professionals, it is totally bizarre that anyone might question this -- after all, she's a mom-to-be and is automatically exempt from following the societal strictures of normaly sane behavior.
I cannot imagine why anyone would question this.
And if she decides to cross the street without checking for traffic, then of course that is totally fine -- hey, she's a mom-to-be.
Come on. Trust the mommy-to-be? This is Angelina Jolie we're talking about, the woman who soul kissed her brother on camera at the Oscars.
She may be beautiful and independent, but sensible she's not. And it is recklessly senseless to be flying in an airplane, much less a small twoseater ALONE, in the third trimester of pregnancy.
When she was not a mom-to-be, no one questioned whether she should fly. She continues to behave as she did before. For her, apparently being a mom-to-be changes nothing. That seems to really bug other people. Hm.
