Finally, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt agree to respectfully settle their divorce

It finally looks like a smooth separation for warring ex-couple Angelina Jolie-Brad Pitt. They had announced their separation in September 2016 but got embroiled in a lengthy court battle. Jolie had originally filed for sole custody of their six children but has now decided to allow Brad to have access to them. The former couple has also been in discussions regarding the logistics of childcare while they are working and travelling.

This is a positive note for the two who are now in agreement regarding the other terms of their divorce as well. Apparently, the terms are being finalised by both legal teams but will be filed within weeks. The estranged couple is determined to now maintain a respectful relationship for the sake of their children, Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 11, and 9-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

Angelina had filed for divorce in September 2016, amid accusations that Brad was involved in a physical altercation on a plane with their son Maddox. Brad went on to be cleared of wrongdoing by the Los Angeles County Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS). Later, he was also granted visitation rights to their children.

Angelina had taken a year off from work to focus on the needs of her children, who had clearly taken the split of their parents badly. “I’m really sitting and talking with them because everything affects them. Every location, every type of project, I’m going to have to adjust it to however much they can handle,” she had shared.

Brad had also started therapy every week following his bitter breakup from Angelina. He was said to be keen on learning and bettering himself as a man and father. He had opened up about his drinking, which he claimed became a "problem" after the breakdown of his marriage.

Meanwhile, Brad’s ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston and her husband of two years, Justin Theroux, announced their split in February 2018.
