Angelina Jolie-Brad Pitt Divorce Update: Actor Confident He Will Win Joint Custody Of 6 Children

Brad Pitt is positive that he will win the custody battle against his estranged wife, Angelina Jolie, for their children.

According to the Daily Mail, the 53-year-old “Ocean’s Eleven” actor said that he is confident he will get joint custody of their six children. Jolie, on the other hand, filed for sole custody of Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 10, and 8-year-old twins, Vivienne and Knox.

At present, Pitt is allowed to visit his children as long as it is under the supervision of the family’s therapist.

While speaking with The Sun, an insider said that Pitt is already in high spirits because he is certain he will score a big win in court. “This is a massive victory for Brad because all he ever wanted was joint custody. At no point did he ever want to take the kids away from Angelina, which she initially tried to do to him. Brad Pitt’s lawyers believe the court will look badly on Angelina’s negative PR campaign against him,” the source said.

Last week, People reported that Pitt is looking happier and healthier when he was spotted walking around Santa Monica. The publication noted that the actor looked more relaxed and at peace because things are starting to look good for him again. Another source also told the publication that Pitt is open to working with Jolie to make their divorce easier for their children.

“Brad is willing to work with Angie so they can have peace for the kids. What is ultimately comes down to is that he just wants to be with the kids,” the insider said.

Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt on Sept. 15, 2016. Rumors previously surfaced that Pitt physically abused their eldest son, Maddox. Investigators later on confirmed that no such thing happened.
