Brad Pitt gets joint custody of his children with Angelina Jolie in an interim ruling
Pitt was granted a request to adjust the current custody agreement to allow him more time with his children, sources confirmed.
Brad Pitt was granted joint custody of his five minor children with ex-wife Angelina Jolie in a tentative ruling, sources confirmed to NBC News on Wednesday.
Pitt, who separated from Jolie in 2016, received a request to adjust the current custody agreement to allow him more time with his children.
The new agreement tentatively splits Pitt’s legal custody 50-50 with his ex-wife.
Pitt’s attorneys filed a motion Monday in support of a sealed custody order, requesting that the court be notified that Judge John W.
Odenkirk.
The motion was filed to “correct” the record in the face of “factual and legal inaccuracies” that Jolie’s legal team had presented in its opposition.
The former couple share six children together – adopted children Maddox, Pax and Zahara, plus biological children Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne.
Jolie said last year in an interview with Vogue that she split from Pitt for the well-being of their family.
“It was the right decision,” Jolie said. “I’m still focused on his healing. Some have taken advantage of my silence, and children see lies about them in the media, but I remind them that they know their own truth and their own mind.”
Pitt opened up shortly after his split about the decision to quit drinking and smoking pot in a 2017 interview with GQ, telling the magazine that he simply “didn’t want to live that way anymore.”
