How Angelina Jolie Spoils Kids With Brad Pitt Amid Messy Divorce

Angelina Jolie is a hands-on mom to her six children with estranged husband Brad Pitt. And whenever she has time for a break amid her busy schedule as an actress and UN special envoy, the actress apparently loves spoiling her kids by taking them on trips and buying them whatever they want.

Amid her ongoing divorce with Pitt, Jolie reportedly took her six kids -- Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 10 -- with her to Albuquerque, New Mexico. The actress has been filming scenes for her upcoming movie, "Those Who Wish Me Dead," in the city, and her kids have apparently been staying with her over the last month.

An insider told E! News that while the kids had to temporarily move from Los Angeles to Albuquerque, this didn't change their lifestyle all that much. Jolie has reportedly been spending a lot of time with the children between work by taking them on shopping trips and dining out with them.

""They are doing the same stuff in New Mexico that they do in LA. They have taken multiple Target runs and love shopping and going out to eat," the eyewitness told the outlet.

Jolie and Pitt's six children apparently spend their weekends with their mom as the actress usually works "very long days on set." Jolie has reportedly been indulging her children by buying them loads of new things, including "carts full of toys and sporting goods."

"She loves to indulge them with new things as much as she can," the source said of Jolie and her children. "She has had to work a lot so she wanted them to have fun and stay busy. When they arrived, they set up their house with all kinds of new pets, stuff for their rooms and toys."

The source added that Jolie and her children haven't spent the whole month of May in New Mexico as they frequently fly back to Los Angeles "when they can."

In LA, the kids may spend some of their time with their dad, who has reportedly been granted at least partial custody of the children. The estranged couple finally reached a custody agreement late last year, and the children have reportedly started spending more time with their father since then.

Back in April, a source told Entertainment Tonight that Jolie and Pitt have been getting along better after setting aside their differences and setting up a custody schedule for their kids. Now, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne are reportedly "happy and thriving" as they can spend time with both of their parents.
