TIL Desk Hollywood/ Hollywood star Brad Pitt has opened up for the first time about his much publicised split with actress wife Angelina Jolie, saying that the end of the marriage had a “jarring” affect on their kids.
Jolie, 41, filed for divorce last September after a reported altercation involving the couple’s 15-year-old son, Maddox, which led to an investigation by the FBI and the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services. Pitt was ultimately given a clean chit by the agencies. In a recent interview with GQ magazine, the 53-year-old actor said he and Jolie are now primarily focused on co- parenting their six children.
“I was really on my back and chained to a system when Child Services was called. And you know, after that, we’ve been able to work together to sort this out. We’re both doing our best. I heard one lawyer say, ‘No one wins in court it’s just a matter of who gets hurt worse.’ And it seems to be true,” he said.
