'She's Unleashed Hell': Brad Pitt Is 'Furious' At Angelina Over Bitter Divorce Paper Claims That He's A 'Bad Dad With Anger And Alcohol issues'
Brad Pitt is 'furious' at Angelina Jolie for filing for divorce, a move he says could put their kids at risk.
Sources close to Pitt told TMZ that
the actor is angry at Jolie for allegedly spinning stories about him
being a potential risk to their kids because of anger issues and
substance abuse.
Pitt reportedly said Jolie 'unleashed hell' because the entire family has become targets for the paparazzi.
Over
the last few days, Pitt has had conversations with Jolie pleading for
her to handle the divorce 'like adults', sources told the site.
Pitt
said he wanted to keep the divorce under wraps for the benefit of their
children, but instead, he says, Jolie has painted him as a risky dad
and asked for sole physical custody.
The
Hollywood stars' home is now surrounded by photographers, while the Los
Angeles Police Department patrols regularly because of the media
frenzy.
Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt for 'the health of her family', two years after the couple wed at their French estate Chateau Miraval.
The
actress filed papers on Monday citing irreconcilable differences as the
reason for the split and asked for physical custody of the couple's six
children - Maddox, age 15; Pax, aged 12; Zahara, aged 11; Shiloh, aged
10; and twins Vivienne and Knox, aged eight.
A source close to the couple told TMZ that
Jolie, 41, made the decision to file because of the way 'Brad was
parenting the children,' adding that 'she was extremely upset with his
methods'.
That
same source claims Jolie became 'fed up' with Pitt's consumption of
'weed and possibly alcohol' mixed with his 'anger problem'.
It has also been revealed that Pitt was blindsided and was told that
Jolie was divorcing him just a day before she filed the legal papers, a
source told the Mirror.
Pitt allegedly visited his lawyer to discuss how to move forward in Los Angeles hours after Angelina met with her lawyer.
The source said the pair had been planning a trip to London but it was canceled Monday, the same day Jolie filed for divorce.
Pitt and Jolie began dating in early 2005 after they met on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith.
Page Six reported
that it was after Jolie learned through a private eye that Pitt was
cheating on her with Marion Cotillard on the set of their new film
Allied that she made the decision to split from the actor.
But a source close to the couple claims that the actress was so jealous of Cotillard that she refused to speak with the French star after meeting her on the set of the film Allied.
'Angelina completely ignored Marion on the set, and when Marion tried to
talk to her she just looked the other way,' said the source.
'Marion was devastated. Here she is thinking she is going to meet this
great UN ambassador and instead Angelina refuses to speak to the woman
because of her own jealousy.'
The source also said that rumors of an affair between Pitt and Cotillard are '100 per cent false', and that Pitt's main concern at this time is his children.
'He does not want them reading anything negative in the press about himself or their mother,' said the source.
'He's not going to get dirty.'
As for the reason for Jolie's jealousy the source said: 'Because of the
way women view her she projects her own stuff onto innocent women like
Marion'
Cotillard, 40, has been in a relationship with actor and writer
Guillaume Canet, 43, since 2007, and the couple have their five-year-old
son, Marcel.
Jolie, who is being represented by Laura Wasser, is not asking for
spousal support in the divorce. Wasser most recently represented Johnny
Depp in his divorce from Amber Heard.
Jolie listed the couple's separation date as September 15, 2016, just last Thursday.
The couple had not been seen together in months and were last
photographed on a red carpet together in November of last year while
promoting their film By The Sea.
But a source told the Mirror that Jolie 'still says Brad is the love of
her life, and the decision has weighed heavy on her heart'.
People spoke
with a source who claims that fighting between the two got so bad at
times over the past year that Pitt would flee to France.
As for the discipline issue, the source said: 'Brad has always been
stricter. He has wanted the kids to have more structure. Brad will get
frustrated sometimes and yell at the kids. Angelina always had a more
relaxed attitude when it came to the kids. She definitely never yells.'
An attorney for Jolie, Robert Offer, said Tuesday in a statement that
she has filed for the dissolution of the marriage 'for the health of the
family'.
He then added: 'She will not be commenting, and asks that the family be given its privacy at this time.'
Jolie's manager Geyer Kosinski also released a statement, saying:
'Angelina will always do what's in the best interest to protect her
children.
'She appreciates everyone's understanding of their need for privacy at this time.'
Pitt said in a statement to DailyMail.com: 'I am very saddened by this,
but what matters most now is the well being of our kids. I kindly ask
the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging
time.'
New
lady?: Another report claims that Jolie filed for divorce after hiring a
private eye who learned he had been having an affair with Marion
Cotillard on the set of their film Allied (above) |
Cotillard has yet to respond to a request for comment from
DailyMail.com, but a source close to the actress said: ‘Marion and
Guillaume are blissfully happy, and these kind of claims are not what
Marion wants to be hearing.
‘Claims that she’s cheating on Guillaume with Brad will leave her absolutely devastated.
This doesn’t sound like her at all.’
The source added: ‘She enjoys her family time, and wants to enjoy more of it. All this fuss will be a huge shock to her.’
A long-time friend of Pitt and Jolie told DailyMail.com: ‘I could say the divorce announcement is a shock, but it’s not.
‘This divorce deal has been brewing for a long time.’
The friend said it wasn’t long after the couple tied the knot in 2014 that cracks began to show in their 12-year relationship.
‘When Angelina underwent her mastectomy in 2013, her health and life in general became a priority for her,’ added the source.
‘Her views on life changed. Suddenly she saw herself walking in her late
mother’s shoes - and she was no longer that wild, fun-loving woman she
used to be, she was taking things a lot more seriously.'
Her mom, Marcheline Bertrand, who died of ovarian cancer in 2007, had always been Angelina’s biggest influence, friends say.
‘Brad was supportive, and wanted to be there for her, so they decided to
marry – more for the sake of their six children than themselves. They
wanted the kids to have the security of knowing their parents were
committed because they had been very affected by the their mom’s ill
health.’
But it was not long after the wedding, that things began to change for the couple.
‘Angelina wasn’t into wasting time on frivolous matters. Brad felt it
was important for them to live life to the fullest, but as the months
passed, Angelina seemed to withdraw, making the children and her work
with the UN a priority.
‘Angelina wasn’t really interested in doing any project that took her
away from the children and home, but Brad was still wanting the
wanderlust, adventure-filled life that first attracted him to her.’
