“Brad is heartbroken it has come to this. Those around him feel Angelina’s claims are to sway the court in her favor. Brad has never attacked her.”

“Troy” star Brad Pitt was saddened when his wife unexpectedly slammed him with divorce papers before their 2nd wedding anniversary.

Following their separation, the pair engaged in a messy custody battle for their six kids, and Pitt won joint custody last year.

Recently, Jolie revealed shocking details that led to their divorce.

The revelations hurt Pitt, but he remains committed to reuniting with their kids.

Once upon a time, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were a powerful couple, but their marriage did not last for more than two years.

During their more than ten years of romance, they welcomed six kids, who, following their divorce, may have a severed relationship with Pitt. A source close to the “The Lost City” star noted that his ex-wife has been on a revenge mission since their fallout.

Jolie recently made some accusations in a countersuit, confirming that her husband had abused her and their kids physically in 2016. Although the authorities refused to press charges, investigations revealed a lack of evidence about the attack on a plane.

But that was not enough to stop Jolie from putting out more claims. She visited a family court, labeling Pitt as an unfit parent, and requested that he should not be considered in the custody arrangement. Again, the judge did not buy her request. Instead, the ruling ordered joint custody of their kids.

The insider maintained that her strategies have somehow captured their kids as she has managed to poison their minds against their father. Sadly, they all now have a strained relationship with him.

The source mentioned that Pitt, who feels deeply wounded over the constant attacks, had never tried to throw his former wife under the bus. According to the informant, he has remained mute because of their kids.

Just last year, Pitt was ecstatic following the ruling from the family court, which gave them equal custody.

But these recent claims, which sprung up on Tuesday after he sued Jolie for breaching a property agreement, have initiated another hostility. Still, it has not deterred the father-of-six from being committed to reuniting with his kids.

Sources confirmed that Pitt has immeasurable love for his brood, and nothing can come between that.

Fatherhood with the Clan
Jolie and Pitt were Hollywood’s favorite couple. Their love blossomed after co-starring in the spy thriller “Mr. And Mrs. Smith.” But, long before they wedded, the couple welcomed their six kids, including adopted and biological.

Jolie has not slowed down in her accusations. Last year the actress shared that she would prove her story of having suffered abuse at the hands of her ex-husband.

Their large family includes Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and their youngest, twins named Knox and Vivienne. They were tremendously happy to parent their children during their time as a couple.

A close source admitted the couple was busy but did not despise caring for their fast-growing bunch. But, sadly, cracks began to emerge in this admirable family when in 2016, the actress filed for divorce.

They had only been married for two years and were a few weeks shy of marking their anniversary. The “Maleficent” star cited irreconcilable differences and requested physical custody of their kids, with Pitt having only visitation rights.

Although she never asked for spousal or child support, the duo have been neck-deep in an eternal child custody struggle. At the time, Jolie revealed that the decision was in the family’s interest.

This was an unbelievable announcement to fans who adored the duo’s long-term relationship. But the effect was even more shocking to her ex-husband, as it came unexpectedly.

Following the announcement, Pitt was distraught, but his statement proved that he also cared deeply for their kids. He said:

“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.”

At first, the actress refused to share the reason for the divorce, but later, she claimed that a 2016 incident during a private family flight spurred her to act.

Jolie revealed through her statement that Pitt had attacked her and their child, Maddox, as they flew from France to the US.

Although the authorities cleared Pitt as there was no evidence of abuse, Jolie persisted and claimed that she had proof. An insider disagreed, explaining that “nothing inappropriate happened” that day but that there was a “child-parent disagreement.”

Apart from maintaining his innocence, Pitt has devoted the past five to six years fighting for their kids. Even after he was granted joint custody, Jolie is still hellbent on pursuing a lawsuit to rid him of the custody right.

Jolie’s Recent Claims
Jolie has not slowed down in her accusations. Last year, the actress shared that she would prove her story of having suffered abuse at the hands of her ex-husband.

An insider revealed that the “Maleficent” star has been persistent in the accusations but continues to change her story. Another close source to Pitt said:

“Brad is heartbroken it has come to this. Those around him feel Angelina’s claims are to sway the court in her favor. Brad has never attacked her.”

The source added, “Brad is anxious to get custody worked out so the family can finally move on. He just wants to spend time with his children and move in a positive direction. His priority has always been his relationship with his children.”

Despite the tricky situation, Pitt tries to be with his kids no matter where they are in the world.

For example, the 58-year-old traveled to Italy for his twins’ birthday; when Shiloh turned 16, he went all out to celebrate the teenager.

However, Pitt’s parenting continues to be questioned as his ex-wife often shares more shocking revelations. In her Tuesday countersuit, Jolie explicitly recalled the details of the 2016 flight.

She claimed Pitt began arguing with one of their kids before arriving at the airport. This continued until they got on the plane, prompting the actress to ask the cause of the argument.

Rather than explain, Jolie stated that he launched at her with verbal abuse and later “pulled” her into the bathroom. This also caused the kids to cry, as they were frightened.

Again, Pitt’s spokesperson denied the claims, adding that Jolie’s story has evolved more than once and that the new details are “completely untrue.”
