Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were one of the power couples in Hollywood.

Their relationship used to be regarded as the epitome of relationship goals.

Both of these actors were stars in their own right, and so it was bound to make noise every time they showed up together.

However, there were also cons to all the attention they were getting.

Even after years of their separation, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie continue to make headlines every time a new detail about their battle for the joint custody of their children surfaces on the internet or a passing comment that they might have made about their relationship.

According to reports, Pitt is having trouble gaining the custody of yet another one of his kids.

Brad Pitt Feels Threatened By Angelina Jolie Regarding Their Daughter

In August 2023, the Maleficent actress revealed to Life & Style that she had hired her 15-year-old daughter Vivienne Jokie-Pitt as her assistant while Jolie worked as the producer of the musical adaptation of The Outsiders. Speaking of her daughter, Jolie said:

“She isn’t focused on being the center of attention but in being a support to other creatives. She’s very thoughtful and serious about theater and working hard to best understand how to contribute.”

While this is an excellent opportunity for any kid to learn and grow in the Hollywood entertainment industry, Brad Pitt felt that this did not bode well for his relationship with his daughter. A source confirmed as much to the outlet, saying:

“He thinks this is just another attempt by Angie to drive a wedge between him and his daughter. It’s no secret that Angie’s always trying to make sure the kids are Team Mom. She’s a master manipulator when it comes to the children taking sides.”’

Whether Angelina Jolie truly interferes with their kids’ judgment of the whole custody battle situation or not is hard to tell.

However, Pitt’s point of view cannot be completely ignored since he is not only the father of the kids but also has a good read on his ex-wife given how much time they spent as a couple.

Brad Pitt’s Relationship With Angelina Jolie Has Never Not Been Controversial

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie met for the first time on the sets of the 2005 action comedy film Mr. and Mrs. Smith. 

At the time, Pitt was married to FRIENDS star Jennifer Aniston. Later, Pitt and Jolie claimed that despite falling in love on the sets of the movie, they never acted upon it.

However, one month after Aniston filed for divorce from the Bullet Train actor, he was seen hanging out with Jolie and her son, Maddox.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got engaged in 2012 and got married in a private ceremony in 2014. However, they were legally separated in 2019.

Since 2016 when Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt, the couple has been embroiled in a custody battle.

As of now, Pitt is only allowed to spend some time with his minor children while Jolie has primary physical custody.

The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star has also been trying to fix his strained relationship with Maddox Jolie-Pitt, his oldest child with Jolie.
