The couple who met on the set of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”, were together for over a decade, before they chose to marry in a private ceremony in 2014. It was also reported that the family was under investigation for the alleged incident by the Los Angeles Police Department, claims the department denied.
The FBI was informed about a “child welfare” incident involving “unruly behaviour” by Pitt with his child present, while on an global flight last week, the Los Angeles Times quoted an unnamed law enforcement source as saying. According to the site’s anonymous source, the allegation involved “unruly behaviour” by the actor with his child present.
“Extra” has tracked what is believed to be the plane and travel information for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s last flight together, where the couple allegedly had a fight that led her to file for divorce. That’s when Pitt allegedly lunged at the boy and made contact. The news outlet reported he got “verbally abusive” and “physical” with one of his children, the nature of which has not been verified.
Sources familiar with the allegations, but not authorized to speak publicly, say the child welfare investigation centers on Pitt’s treatment of his son Maddox, 15, during an argument during the September 14 flight. However, the LAPD denied any involvement. “We’re not handling any investigation into this incident.[with] Brad Pitt”.
In a statement, the agency said it is “continuing to gather facts and will evaluate whether an investigation at the federal level will be pursued”.
When Jolie fell in love with Pitt in 2004, while filming Mr.& Mrs. Smith, he was undoubtedly the hottest actor in Hollywood.
CNN confirmed that Pitt talked to Los Angeles law authorities following the alleged incident.
