Brad Pitt is Heartbroken over leaked abuse allegation from Angelina Jolie after Maddox gave a disparaging testimony amid contentious custody battle.
Brad Pitt is saddened it was leaked that Angelina Jolie is now ‘prepared to provide proof’ of domestic abuse in the couple’s contentious custody battle.
An alleged altercation between son Maddox, 19, and Brad, 57, in 2016 was said to have been the final straw for Jolie, 45, who filed paperwork indicating that both she and her children are willing to offer testimony and ‘proof and authority’ in support of her allegations, according to reports.
Now Pitt is ‘heartbroken that Angelina has gone that route. There’s a lot of emotion left after their marriage,’ a source close to the actor said.
The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood star has never been arrested or charged for any offense during the couple’s marriage, nor have any police reports been made.
Soon after the couple filed for divorce in 2016, it was revealed that Brad was being investigated by the FBI and social services in LA amid reports he got ‘verbally abusive and physical with his children’ on a private jet, yet he was cleared.
The pair share Maddox, Zahara, 16, Pax, 17, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12, and are hashing out custody and financial arrangements in the trial, which will see their youngest children provide testimony if they give permission.
