Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's divorce rumors have been around the Internet's corners for quite some time now. With their final decision to separate, Brangelina fans are now worried about the future of their six children that they had initially hoped to raise together.
Amid all the speculations, the final verdict on Jolie-Pitt separation surfaced on Sept. 20, Tuesday. The Mirror reports that the actress has decided to end her 10 years of relationship and two years of marriage with the "World War Z" actor over concerns surrounding the "health of her family."
The 41-year-old "Salt" star is overly concerned about Pitt's "strict" parenting skills. For the same reason, Jolie has demanded the custody for all her six children, with Pitt being given just the visitation rights.
Pitt has been accused of being a bad parent as Jolie continues to remain upset with his parenting methods. In addition, the "Maleficent" actress blames Pitt's use of alcohol and weed behind his furious and overly aggressive nature.
Brangelina has stayed together as a couple for more than 10 years now. During their relationship, they have had six children - Maddox (15), Zahara (11), Pax (13), Shiloh (10), Knox Leon (8) and Vivienne (8). According to CNN, Maddox, Zahara and Pax are Brangelina's children adopted from Combodia, Ethiopia and Vietnam, respectively.
While the future of the kids is still uncertain, Jolie has requested privacy to be given to the family at this time. The actress has refused to comment, but Pitt confessed being shattered by her decision to get divorced and is firm to do anything for the welfare of the kids.
The well-being of the six kids has always been the center of a marital association between Jolie and Pitt. A source close to the couple revealed that Jolie has been particularly affected by the decision.
The Jolie-Pitt relationship had essentially become dominated by arguments and they both started to spend much less time together as a couple. Disappointed, Jolie has not asked anything from Pitt, other than the custody of her children.
