Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt on September 15 after two years of marriage and 14 years together, citing irreconcilable differences.

Though together for 12 years, Pitt and Jolie Pitt – known as “Brangelina” – only Wednesday in August 2014.

“Mr. and Mrs. Smith” wrapped in 2004 and it wasn’t until January 2005 that Pitt and Aniston announced their separation.

Their children are: 15-year-old Maddox, 12-year-old Pax, 11-year-old Zahara, 10-year-old Shiloh, and 8-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

Angelina has requested sole physical custody of their children but is seeking joint legal custody and is allowing Brad to have visitation rights.

Jolie Pitt has spent much of the past year making “First They Killed My Father”, her fourth feature as director. It’s the third for Jolie Pitt, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.

Following their split, Aniston’s every move was cruelly scrutinized on how she was handling their breakup and the rumors surrounding his new romance with Jolie. They formed the Jolie-Pitt Foundation in 2016.

“The news that they are divorcing will do nothing to stop global interest in the couple with rumours about the real reasons surrounding the split already dominating social media”. At first, Pitt and Jolie refused to comment on their relationship, instead doing things like posing as a happy family in a W magazine photoshoot in July 2005. She made the announcement in the form of an op-ed she authored for The New York Times. So here are five people Jolie should date now she’s breaking up with Brad. Jolie’s son Maddox, adopted from Cambodia, has also been involved in the production, which takes the perspective of war from a 5-year-old child.

While Jolie Pitt has been largely focused on directing, Pitt has a string of movies lined up that he either produced or stars in.

Though together for 12 years, Pitt and Jolie only Wednesday in August 2014. Last year, the couple starred together in her “By the Sea”, playing a glamorous couple vacationing together in France while their marriage was on the rocks.

According to TMZ.com, Angelina made the shock decision after growing “extremely upset” with how Brad was parenting their children, with a source adding that “she was extremely upset with his methods”, and “fed up” with his alleged use of “weed and possibly alcohol” mixed with his ‘anger problem’. “You do a film about bad marriage and you witness that behavior”.

“You heard Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are getting divorced right,” asked my husband when I walked in the door
