Angelina Jolie wants to be doubly sure that this point gets across: Family first, privacy please.

In case you've been away from the internet for awhile, Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt on Monday, and the news broke a day later, including statements from both sides. With all the gossip swirling around the couple, Jolie's camp saw fit to issue a second, eerily similar declaration Tuesday.

Over two statements, the word "family" appears three times. "Privacy" came in a close second with two appearances.

"Angelina will always do what's in the best interest of taking care of her family," Jolie's lawyer Geyer Kosinski told E! News on Tuesday. "She appreciates everyone's understanding of their need for privacy at this time."

Jolie released an original statement through her entertainment attorney, Robert Offer, earlier in the day.

"Angelina has filed for dissolution of the marriage," Offer said. "This decision was made for the health of the family. She will not be commenting, and asks that the family be given its privacy at this time."

Pitt also spoke about the divorce in a statement to People, saying, "I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time."

Give Brad credit -- at least he chose some different verbiage.
