Angelina is divorcing her husband of two years because she disagreed with Brad's parenting style, reveals TMZ. She is asking for custody of their six children and is not seeking spousal support.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt started dating after meeting on the sets of Mr & Mrs Smith in 2004. They married in 2014 and are parents to three adopted and three biological children, who use the last name Jolie-Pitt.
For several months now, Angelina and Brad have been rumoured to be on the brink of divorce. Now that they really are divorcing, social media is heartbroken.
#Brangelina is the top trend on Twitter at the time of writing this.
