ANGELINA JOLIE has finally sold her late mother's California home - more than a year after her death.
Marcheline Bertrand's condominium in Simi Valley was sold for $330,000 (GBP165,000) last month (Apr08), shortly before pregnant Jolie left for France with her family for an extended vacation.
Friends claim Jolie struggled to let go of the pad, which was full of memories of her mother, who lost her battle with ovarian cancer in January 2007, aged 56.
An insider tells the National Enquirer, "They were incredibly close. Marcheline was an actress as well, and responsible for getting Angelina involved in film.
"She had been urged to sell the place by family and friends, but wanted to hold on to one of the last things she could touch or feel of her mother's spirit.
They add, "Finally, after more than a year, she tearfully let it go."
