Biography
Bertrand married actor Jon Voight on December 12, 1971. Following a miscarriage in 1972, they had two children, James Haven (born May 11, 1973) and Angelina Jolie (born June 4, 1975). Both children became actors; Jolie has credited her mother with getting her involved in acting. Bertrand and Voight separated in 1976 as a result of Voight's adultery. She filed for divorce in 1978, which was finalized in 1980.
Following her legal separation from Voight, Bertrand began a relationship with documentary-filmmaker Bill Day. They lived together for eleven years, but never married. During her later life, Bertrand was in a relationship with activist and musician John Trudell.
At the time of her death, Bertrand had three grandchildren by her daughter. Another granddaughter, who was born the following year, was given the middle name Marcheline in her honor.
