Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt 2018: ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith” Heading Towards Custody Court Battle or Settlement?

There appear to be conflicting reports about the Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt custody case courtesy of legitimate news sources. On the one hand, reports about the pair finally going into a court battle have just come out. However, there have also been details published recently that the two are pushing to settle things out of court.

The report about an Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt custody court battle finally getting a date is courtesy of CNN, which notes that it will start on Dec. 4. It would seem that the publication has obtained documents pertaining to the situation that indicates the former couple’s willingness to finally fight this out. However, this has not been officially confirmed by either party, as of writing.

Many of those who have followed the Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt saga from start to finish are already aware of how messy the whole situation has become. It would appear that the “Maleficent” actress is still pushing for sole custody of the children that she shares with her estranged husband. On the other hand, the “Troy” star is pushing for joint custody, which is arguably the more reasonable stance.

Naturally, there have been those who have been taking sides in the Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt custody issue. There have even been criticisms thrown at the actress for her persistence in keeping the children to herself. On that note, there is also a recent report by People that reveals how the pair would rather not go to court over this issue.

This was based on the documents that the publication supposedly obtained, indicating how the Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt parties are working to settle the matter before the court date arrives. If a settlement can be reached, it would certainly be to everyone’s benefit. Dragging it out would only result in trauma for the children.
