Brad Reportedly Wants 50-50 Custody of Kids with Angelina and They’re Having a Court Hearing…Like, Today

From Cosmopolitan


Looks like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are heading to court to figure out their custody agreement. Sources tell Entertainment Tonight that while Brad hoped not to get courts involved, he wants 50-50 custody and was “left with no other choice.”

“Brad is asking for 50-50 custody to be put in place and stay in place,” a source says of the hearing (which is scheduled for today, October 5). “Angelina wants to be fair when it comes to custody. She is very structured with the children. Brad has high hopes [they can] try to make it work because of the importance of co-parenting.”

The source adds that “Brad, for the most part, has been respectful of Angelina’s parenting. While he doesn’t agree with everything, he knows she loves the kids and wants the best for them. He also knows his love and presence are needed.”

Apparently, the former couple originally came to a custody agreement in November 2018, but it didn’t work out—and while Brad has “done everything he can to avoid a court situation,” he feels he has been “left with no other choice.”

“It’s important to Brad that the kids don’t worry about their parents’ current situation and that they don’t feel stuck in the middle in any way,” the source explains. “This is a challenge because of their age, but he’s doing what he can. Brad has avoided this court scenario for years, and the last thing he would ever want is for this to have a negative outcome for everyone. This is about getting his time with the children.”

An additional source tells ET that “no one wants this case over more than Angelina,” so here’s to hoping everything is resolved amicably!
