Angelina Jolie files for divorce from Brad Pitt


Los Angeles, Sep 20 (PTI) : Hollywood actress-filmmaker Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from actor husband Brad Pitt after two years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences.

The news comes as a heartbreak for their fans and shippers but definitely not a shock because the rumours of problems between the couple have been there
for past few months.

According to TMZ, the 41-year-old actress filed the legal documents on Monday and has asked for physical custody of the couple's six children.

She is asking the judge to give Pitt visitation and is in favour of a joint legal custody. Sources close to the couple say Jolie's decision has to do with the way Pitt was parenting the children and she was extremely upset with his methods.

Jolie is not asking for spousal support. She has listed the date of separation as Sept. 15, 2016.

One of the most celebrated Hollywood couples, Jolie-Pitt tied the knot in August 2014 after 10 years of togetherness.

    Let us think about Indians in India. Why to bother what Americans are doing. One great thing both of them done together is their charity work, which none of our listed rich men can do. Our rich men good only to be in list, and politicians together with them make middle class people to poor class.

    Rakesh,

    You are so correct. I read somewhere today that a woman in Raipur visited from hospital to hospital for three days with a dead fetus in her womb but all the hospitals asked for units of blood and cash advance before agreeing to admit them. The woman died after the infection ate her up because the couple could not afford the demands.

    Comparatively, Brad-Angeline are saints to have adopted children from poor nations whereas we intentionally kill !

    FOR THEM IT IS BUSINESS AS USUAL. THEY MARRY, RE-MARRY, DIVORCE AND RE-DIVORCE. FANS ARE WORRIED ABOUT THEM FOR NO REASON. WE HAVE BETTER THINGS TO TAKE CARE OF.

    About 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce. The divorce rate for subsequent marriages is even higher.
    Though it's very common in USA, they are practical i assume.

    Appreciate what they have done.
    Instead of being in the wedlock for the sake of society, it is better to get separated and find an alternative life.
    What is the point in having fights everyday, cheating, extramarital affairs etc etc and say ," we are married", as in India!

    Whats new ? In the world of celebrity and glamour the institution of marriage has no sanctity at all.
    Take the case of our BJPians Dharam and Hema. They misused Islam just to get around legal tangles, getting converted only on paper just to get married. What a shameful thing to do.
    What are the Nagpuri bhakts saying about that conversion ?

    Mr.D'Mello,

    You need to be more informed. Brad-Angelina have three biological children and the rest are adopted.

    They are great parents indeed.

    Come on Shankar.... you've read that they were together for ten years before getting married in 2014 ???

    Rather, that makes them childless, because no child born after they got married !!
