Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in conflict over custody agreement

Cape Town – It’s been almost two years since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, but the couple have still not reached a custody agreement.

The former couple, who shocked the world with the news of their split in September 2016, are still “at odds” over custody of their six children - Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne – E! News reports.

According to a source Brad and Angie are in disagreement about the kids travelling with the actress while she works.

The source told E!: “The latest issue is that Angelina wants to film in Europe for months and take all six kids with her for the duration of the shoot.

“Brad is opposed to that and is blocking it from happening. He will be filming in LA for the summer and wants to see the kids on his regular custody schedule.”

While Brad and Angie’s relationship has remained strained, they have maintained that their children are their first priority.

In a statement, released shortly after their separation, Brad said: “I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.”

While the former couple are deep in their custody battle, this hasn’t stopped Angie from travelling with her kids, but only for short periods of time.

In July 2017, Angelina travelled to Namibia with her daughters, Zahara and Shiloh for the opening of a wildlife sanctuary named after Shiloh – who was born in the African country.

Angelina was most recently photographed travelling with her kids to London.

An update of the ongoing custody battles comes after it has been reported that both Brad and Angelina have moved on.

A source close to the 54-year-old actor recently told US Weekly that Brad is dating Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor Neri Oxman.

Meanwhile, an insider recently revealed to Entertainment Tonight that the 42-year-old actress is now “seeing” someone for the first time since the split.
