It’s sometimes hard to know if Jon Voight is completely aware of the things he says from one interview to the next. He’s always so over-the-top sensational in his delivery, whether he’s sullying or praising his high-profile daughter, and this time is no different. Jon Voight hasn’t had the chance to meet his twin grandchildren yet. He’s heaping on the adoration with such gusto you can’t help but question his complete sincerity.

“The twins! Holy smokes…I’m hoping, so we’ll see,” he tells OK!. Voight and daughter, Angelina Jolie, have had an infamously estranged relationship in recent years. And while the two are reportedly trying to mend their broken bond, the actor has yet to meet his twin grandchildren.

“I think she’s very happy,” Voight tells OK!. “I saw her here before the twins came, and she was so happy. I’ve never seen her that happy. And she’s got this beautiful film with Clint [Eastwood] out, so there’s going to be a lot of energy around that one as well.”

The adulation didn’t stop there. With his usual dramatics, Voight talked about Angelina’s idea of family. According to her father, Jolie has always had a different view of family and he has no idea who to attribute that to. He might not know where she gets her feelings about family, but he knows how much she loves hers and how much she and Brad try to protect their kids.

The Oscar winner tells OK! he sympathizes with his daughter and Brad trying to protect their kids amid a daily barrage of paparazzi.

“They are handling it, but it’s a stress on them because they can’t do things, they can’t easily go out and do stuff. They always have to consider the barrage of some kind happening. It’s difficult. They’re just kids after all, they’re just young people.”

Grandpa really wants to see those babies. I wonder if he remembers their names?
