Angelina Jolie has spoken to the BBC about the difficult time that has passed since star Brad Pitt’s divorce.
Asked about the divorce, the actress took a deep breath and was touched by her strangled voice, indicating what her priority was amid the painful separation process:
“A lot of people are also in this situation. My whole family went through this difficult time. I focus on my children, our children. We are and always will be a family. I’m trying to find a way to make us stronger and closer ”.
Divorced
Alleging irreconcilable differences, Jolie filed for divorce from Brad after three years of marriage. According to court documents, the date of separation was September 15, 2016. The couple fell in love while filming “Mr. & Mrs Smith ‘in 2004, when Pitt was still married to actress Jennifer Aniston.
One of the reasons the separation has been so tumultuous is the actress’ claim that the ex-husband presents a “danger” to the children. The situation is even more delicate, since Angelina asked for full custody of the children, granting only the visits of the father, without his involvement in the creation.
Shortly after the divorce was announced, Brad Pitt was embroiled in an incident in which he allegedly lost his temper explosively in front of at least one of his children. In November, the actor was cleared of the abusive conduct allegations and sought joint custody of the children.
