Laura Wasser, an attorney for Angelina Jolie, who filed for divorce this week from Pitt, declined to comment.
Citing anonymous sources, the site writes, “Brad, Angelina and their kids were on a flight last Wednesday when he allegedly got wasted on the private jet”.
The Los Angeles Police Department is not investigating any reports or allegations of child abuse against Pitt, a spokesperson previously told PEOPLE.
Following their denials, TMZ was the first to report that since the alleged incident occurred during a flight, the charges were out of the departments’ jurisdiction and referred to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
An FBI statement late Thursday confirmed that an investigation “regarding allegations within the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States – specifically, an aircraft carrying Mr. Brad Pitt and his children” has been opened.
E! Online’s sources said the “Fury” actor is “very upset” by everything going on and never wanted his children to become a part of the drama.
The insider continued, “It’s unfortunate that people involved are continuing to present him in the worst possible light”. She listed the date of separation as September 15, a day after Pitt’s alleged blow-up.
Officials for the Los Angeles Police Department said the department is not investigating Pitt. She is reportedly requesting that a judge grant Pitt visitation rights as opposed to joint custody.
The Hollywood heavy hitters have six children.
Family members told TMZ that on September 16 there was a fight between Pitt, Jolie and his children during which the actor, allegedly drunk, shouted and was violent towards his children.
Jolie has filed for divorce.

“I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids”, he said. “I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time”.
