Celebrities don’t always have it super easy. Once they’ve achieved a certain level of fame, people want to know more and more about them, which can be disastrous when the people they are closest to decide to sell them out for a quick paycheck. The same goes for celebrities who find themselves in the middle of a big scandal – magazines will do anything for information, which means trouble for some stars who have disloyal family members or friends. Check out our list of celebrities who have been sold out by the people closest to them – their family members. While some have gone to the press for a check, others have written scathing tell-all books. Who can you trust if you can’t trust your family?
9. Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie and her father Jon Voight were estranged for nearly a decade after he told Access Hollywood that she needed help for her “serious mental problems.” This caused a major rift between the two. The Academy Award-winning actress had been in the process of adopting Maddox and, according to her, his accusations could have adversely affected the adoption process. Although Jolie and Voight have made strides in recent years to get past the feud, they are still anything but close.
