The battle lines are now drawn as reports have it that Brad Pitt will fight for joint physical custody of his six children.
Sources who have been with Brad since his separation with Angelina Jolie last week, says he has made it clear he will engage in legal war to stop his estranged wife from getting what she wants, which is the sole physical custody, giving him only visitation rights.
It was further stated that when Brad answers Jolie’s divorce petition, the stage will be set for the central conflict.
Judges favour giving joint custody to parents unless there’s a showing one of them poses some sort of risk to the kids.
Already, Jolie maintains Pitt has an anger problem, which is exacerbated by weed and alcohol. And that the actor lunged at and struck 15-year-old Maddox on the plane, adding that it was intentional. However, he says it was not.
For now , they agreed Jolie would have the kids, while the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services investigate the airplane incident.
