Not all fairy tales live forever, and Brangelina was no exception to this. Angelia Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt citing irreconcilable differences, thus effectively marking the end of the American power-couple.
According to the court documents, the pair separated on 15th September after being married for two years and one month. She is seeking full custody of all six of their children and also asking the court to grant Pitt visitation. The two plan to have a cordial break-up, keeping their children’s best interests in mind. She stated that this decision was made for the health of her family.
“Angelina will always do what’s in the best interest to protect her children,” Geyer Kosinski, Jolie’s manager, told E! News in statement on Tuesday. “She appreciates everyone’s understanding of their need for privacy at this time.”
Their fairy-tale romance started when the duo was shooting Mr and Mrs Smith back in 2004. At that time Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston, making them America’s sweethearts. But not much later, in 2005, the couple went their separate ways and he quickly started seeing Angelina Jolie and thus began the Team Angelina/Team Jennifer mini-war (Team Jen forever though, just saying).
The two went on the date for nearly 10 years before finally tying the knot and sealing their place as the Mr. and Mrs. Royalty of Hollywood in 2014. They are proud parents to Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Pax, Vivienne, and Knox.
The two always stood by one another, be it Jolie’s double mastectomy, their several humanitarian projects and well, being the best parents, because, why not?
But all great things must come to an end. For the last couple of months, several possible-divorce rumours made the rounds of gossip circles but people just couldn’t imagine any of these to be true. But here we are. The end of Brangelina is here now and is definitely happening this time.
