Devastated, this is Brad Pitt, after learning that Angelina Jolie will make a legal offensive for abuse
The famous actress would be thinking of taking her children to testify against the actor in the custody trial.
Heartbroken, devastated, dejected. This is how they describe the emotions that invade the actor Brad Pitt these days, after learning that his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, would lead three of the couple's minor children to testify, to the trial that is being advanced to obtain custody.
A rumor reached Pitt that Jolie had probative material for what she has been arguing: physical abuse on her part.
The Hollywood couple separated in 2016, but the battle for custody of the children (three biological and three adopted) is still ongoing.
On March 12, before a private judge handling the case, the 45-year-old woman presented court documents indicating that both she and her children were willing to present their testimonies to prove that the accusations against Pitt, 57 years, they are true.
Although the judicial documents that are presented in these cases are private, and are duly sealed before the judge, they would have been leaked to the blog 'The Blast'.
After the spread of this situation, a source close to Pitt said that the actor was heartbroken, unable to understand why Angelina had taken that path.
According to the statements delivered by the source to the international media, the actor has made the effort to change the conditions that led the couple to have difficulties and, finally, to make the decision to separate. “He has taken responsibility for his actions and has taken on his past problems, he has stopped drinking. The marriage was very passionate, without it not having toxic moments, "said the source.
He added that couple conflicts are not episodes from another world. Rather, “they happen in all relationships. They had fights, but they also shared a lot of good times together.
Pitt Defenders
But if Angelina brings her witnesses, there are also Pitt's defenders and they maintain that the actor was never arrested or charged with any crime during his marriage to Jolie, nor were there any police reports of allegations of spousal abuse.
There was a widely publicized incident aboard a private jet with his family, but he was never charged, Pitt's court team has said.
For that reason, the circle of support for Pitt believes that the leak of what Jolie intends to do, would be a premeditated action to try to influence the decision that the judge of the case must make.
"Brad feels like he's increasingly isolated from his children, and he's devastated by it." The trial is expected to end next month and the judge will rule on custody.
Pitt is fighting for joint physical and legal custody of at least half of his six children with Angelina Jolie.
12 years of love and a juicy fortune
The famous couple's family is made up of 19-year-old Maddox, who recently spoke of removing his last name. There is also Zahara, 16; Pax, 17 years old; Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, who are 12 years old.
They lasted 12 years together and were one of the most beloved couples in Hollywood, having met in the filming of the movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."
In 2016, their separation came to light. Later, in 2017, the couple agreed to take their divorce private, in a joint statement. However, in 2018 the situation went from brown to dark. Pitt's struggle to spend more time with his children brought them to court. A judge ordered Jolie to fix Pitt's relationship for the good of the children. Thus began the cross accusations.
Later, they uncovered intimacies, such as Angelina's accusation of not paying enough alimony. In 2019 they were declared legally separated. Hence, until now, the battle for custody of children has become increasingly fierce.
