Co-parenting at its finest! HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVE details on how exes Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are working together to give their six adorable children ‘structure and stability.’ Brad Pitt, 53, and Angelina Jolie, 42, will always put the kids first. Keeping the family together in the middle of a divorce can’t be smooth sailing at all times, but these two power parents are making the necessary sacrifices. “They’re both cutting back on acting commitments,” a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Brad is more concentrated on producing while Angie is more focused on directing. They will still act in the occasional project if it catches their interest, but they’re more interested in being behind the camera these days. Above all, they want to be able to spend more time with the children even if it means leaving the spotlight for a bit.” Don’t worry guys, the Mr. & Mrs. Smith stars will always be the epitome of Hollywood. They’re not going anywhere far. “The kids are growing up so fast, and given the traumatic events of the past year, Brad and Angie want to provide them with as much stability and structure as possible,” the source continues. “Brad misses his old home life so much, it breaks his heart not being able to see the kids every day. But, he’s making the most of the time he does get with them, and he’s working on slowly building bridges with Angie.” In the meantime though, while old wounds are still healing, the Fight Club hunk is reliving one of his favorite hobbies — art! “He’s gotten into sculpture because he finds it incredibly therapeutic, and he’s getting pretty good at it,” our source adds. As for Angie, she’s been laying low in LA, shopping with daughter Vivienne and checking out some local organic stories to keep up that healthy lifestyle. Eat good, feel good.

The oldest Jolie-Pitt child turns the sweet 16 on Aug. 5 and mom Angelina Jolie is throwing a big celebration. We’ve got EXCLUSIVE details on how papa Brad Pitt is NOT on the guest list for Maddox’s bash.Where has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday that Angelina Jolie, 42, adopted son Maddox from a Cambodian orphanage and already he’s turning 16 on Aug. 5. His proud mother is throwing a birthday bash for him, and adopted dad Brad Pitt, 53, is personna non grata at the event. “Angelina is planning a big sweet sixteen party for Maddox this weekend and Brad is disappointed he is not invited to attend. Brad is upset that he will miss out on this first big milestone event since the divorce. He is doing his best to work around Angelina’s wishes for the children, but this is one instance where Brad is really hurt,” a source close to the family tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Despite his pleading, Angie simply will not set aside her differences, put the past behind her and get together with Brad for the kids. Maddox is going to have a few friends together and Angelina is arranging everything to make his 16th birthday special and Brad wants to apart of the big day. But is not going to happen, so this birthday will be another reminder to Brad that his family will never be the same,” our insider continues.Father and son have had strained relations ever since an incident between the two aboard a private plane prompted Angelina to file for divorce from the actor in Sept. 2016. But he still wants to celebrate his son’s milestone birthday. “Brad has made it clear to Maddox that he too can throw a party for him and they can do whatever Maddox wants…but they both know it won’t be the same,” our source adds.So far Brad hasn’t been part of his other children’s birthday celebrations, as Angelina took daughter Shiloh to Disneyland when she turned 11 back in May and returned to the Happiest Place on Earth for the former couple’s twins Knox and Vivienne‘s ninth birthday party in July. Her entire brood was present as she also brought along the rest of their siblings including Maddox, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, and Shiloh making it a full family affair…except for Brad. Even though Madd is hitting a milestone age, Angie’s sticking to her guns and keeping birthday celebrations with her kids a solo project.

Sticks and stones aren't going to break Brad Pitt's bones! One week after Angelina Jolie opened up about her "difficult" marriage to the actor, the father-of-six is refusing to respond to her remarks — but he's not pretending they didn't have an affect him.Brad, 53, felt Angie was “saying that the kids are trying to heal from him. He was really wounded by the way she phrased that," a source tells Life & Style exclusively. The 42-year-old actress' exact words were: "[Our children have been] very brave... in times they needed to be. We're all just healing from the events that led to the filing... They're not healing from the divorce. They're healing from some… from life, from things in life." Despite feeling as though his ex is "making him out to be the villain," the source says "he's rising above it... Although Angie took some strong shots at him in the interview, he knows he’s finally in a good place with the kids and that one day, he’ll have the custody arrangement that he wants." As Life & Style previously reported, Brad recently told his estranged wife that he'd like to raise their kids — Maddox, 16, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 9 — full-time instead of seeing them just once a week. The proposal did not sit well with Angelina. As they approach the one-year anniversary of the divorce filing in September, the duo has still not finalized a custody agreement.Brad spoke out about the split for the first time in May, telling GQ Style, "It was too sad to be [home] at first, so I went and stayed on a friend's floor, a little bungalow in Santa Monica... This house was always chaotic and crazy, voices and bangs coming from everywhere, and then, as you see, there are days like this: very…very solemn."

Poor Angelina Jolie! Ever since splitting from Brad Pitt and losing her best friend, HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned that the actress has become ‘a loner’ in her daily life.For twelve amazing years, Angelina Jolie, 42, and Brad Pitt, 53, were joined at the hip. They did everything together, even the most basic activities like grocery shopping and coordinating school pick-up for the kids. Post-divorce, the Tomb Raider alum truly feels like she’s “lost her best friend and has become somewhat of a loner,” a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “She doesn’t have a huge circle of friends, so when she ditched Brad it left a huge gap in her life. She really misses their evenings together, when the kids have been put to bed, and they used to sit and talk. Angie is definitely a lot lonelier without Brad, they shared everything.” We know what you’re thinking — why does the brunette bombshell get out there and make some friends? Well, when you’re a mother-of-six, a working actress, and a devoted humanitarian all at the same time, finding free time to meet some friendly faces is nearly impossible. Angie is still “sure she did the right thing” by leaving Brad, but will “always miss their friendship,” the source continues. “It really sinks in after she’s had a tough day and she’s craving some adult company to talk things through with.” Don’t worry Angie — WE’LL BE YOUR FRIENDS! WE LOVE YOU.But seriously, the First They Killed My Father director is going to have to start dating again sometime. No rush or anything, but what’s the harm in a little flirting over a candle-lit dinner? Her ex-husband has reportedly wined and dined Australian model Elle Macpherson at least once. Our sources are confident that Angie isn’t looking to meet Mr. Right…but what about Mr. Right Now? Maybe that’s more likely.
