This news comes after a frenzied few weeks ever since news broke about the Hollywood glamour couples’ split. With allegations aplenty, Brad, 52, has been at the centre. Amongst the claims, it is believed Angelina told the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family services that Brad had become violent with adopted son, Maddox, 15, whilst drunk on a private jet.

Angelina has been granted full custody of Maddox, Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Knox and Vivienne, eight, in a 3 week temporary custody deal. In the meantime, Brad will be permitted visitation rights when accompanied by a therapist.
