Us Weekly: Angelina Jolie Wants to Do What's Best for Her Kids Amid Custody Battle with Brad Pitt
Since the month started, Angelina Jolie and her estranged husband Brad Pitt have been feuding over their children. According to a source, the actress just wants what’s best for their six children.
Angelina Jolie, 45, and Brad Pitt, 56, have been embattled over the private judge who is handling their custody case. According to “Us Weekly’s” sources, the actress alleges that the judge is too close to Pitt’s lawyers.
On top of that, the pair is still working on their divorce. The two actors share Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, 12.

JOLIE’S FOCUS AMID CUSTODY BATTLE
One of the publication’s insiders revealed where Jolie’s head is at with the custody issue. The informant stated:
“Her interests are the same as they always have been, which is to protect the kids and the health of the family.”
DOING WHAT’S BEST FOR THE KIDS
The source also claimed: “In the end, she is going to do what’s best for the children as she has done all along.” Jolie allegedly only wants what is fair and some peace for the children’s sake, according to a different insider.
Brad Pitt intends on fighting back in court.
The star was described as very protective as a parent. Everything she’s done so far was said to be for the health and benefit of her family.

PITT FIGHTS BACK
However, Pitt is also not too pleased with his estranged wife’s accusations in court. He reportedly feels the actress has gone too far this time around.
The actor allegedly feels he has no choice but to fight back with all he’s got. On August 23, 2020, Jolie and Pitt would’ve celebrated six years of marriage.
THEIR SEPARATION
The former couple shocked the world when they suddenly separated in 2016. Instead, on the day of their wedding anniversary, the actress allegedly distracted the children by having a barbecue, playing games, and eating some treats.

QUARANTINING WITH THE KIDS
Last month, Jolie revealed how all her children were quarantining with her against the novel coronavirus disease. She credited Zahara for helping keep things organized in the full house.
STARRING IN A NEW FILM
Another positive thing that has happened in the Jolie household during the pandemic is that her daughter, Shiloh, inspired her mother to star in one particular movie. The actress noted how the teenager encouraged her to feature in the new film, “The One and Only Ivan.”
SHILOH INSPIRES HER MOM
Shiloh started off by reading the book about Ivan before she shared the story with her mother. Jolie got to see how special the character was and ended up signing on for the Disney movie.
