Malibu No. 2. Angelina Jolie is renting a second luxury home in Malibu for her and her six kids amid her ongoing custody battle with estranged husband Brad Pitt, a source exclusively reveals to Us Weekly.The secluded new rental, which goes for $35,000 per month, is a mile away from her other Malibu rental. The 5,097-square-foot second home has six bedrooms and five bathrooms along with a pool, tennis court, guest house and private beach."The kids go back and forth between the two houses, and she also has nannies and staff that stay at both,” the insider tells Us. "The kids have been utilizing the pools at both houses when the weather is nice, and the second house has a tennis court where they can skateboard and play ball. Angelina spends most of her time at the first house, but she likes to have options and be able to move everyone around.” The Maleficent actress, 41 — who has been living with Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 10, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 8, since the split — set up the first rental house before she filed for divorce from Pitt, 53, in September. Some of the amenities in the five-bedroom, 4,400-square-foot estate include a media room, in-home theater and guest home with a gym.Prior to the shocking split, the globe-trotting family had stayed at a home owned by Pitt when they were in the L.A. area. The Allied actor has digs in Los Feliz that he purchased before he started dating Jolie.The former couple recently came to an agreement to deal with their messy divorce and custody battle privately, after Pitt’s emergency request to seal the case was rejected by a court. Jolie is seeking sole physical custody, and Pitt filed for joint physical custody of the kids in response. “The parties and their counsel have signed agreements to preserve the privacy rights of their children and family by keeping all court documents confidential and engaging a private judge to make any necessary legal decisions and to facilitate the expeditious resolution of any remaining issues,” their reps told Us in a joint statement on Monday, January 9. “The parents are committed to act as a united front to effectuate recovery and reunification.”

Angelina Jolie hits the slopes with her kids during Colorado ski trip... as she enjoys NYE getaway in wake of Brad Pitt split

She suffered a painful split from her husband Brad Pitt after over a decade as a couple. So Angelina Jolie was naturally keen to distance herself from the woes of 2016 as she indulged in a family ski trip to a luxury $4million home in Crested Butte, Colorado with her extensive family on New Year's Day - when she hit the slopes with her kids.The 41-year-old actress, who announced her divorce plans in September, was wrapped up against the blistering chill as she proved herself to be every inch the snow bunny while joined by three of her six children - who include Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Knox and Vivienne, eight.Angelina was seen bumping along the slopes alongside Zahara, Knox and Vivienne, as the group appeared to indulge in a ski lesson while swishing along in the frosty weather.The Girl, Interrupted star clad her slender physique in head-to-toe black with slimline salopettes sitting beneath a long-line coat with a stylish fur trim. Ensuring safety came first, she sported a helmet paired with huge goggles. For their luxury trip, she has rented a six bedroom mansion in which guests can ski from the slopes straight to the chalet. Despite her sporty frame, eyewitnesses claim Angelina struggled to maintain her composure at moments.A source on the slopes said: 'She seemed to be struggling on the mountain and was seen falling occasionally during the steep parts of the slopes and opted to take off the skis and walk the rest of the way back to the bottom. She was also seen wearing electric thermic foot warmers.'As the gang ventured up the slope, Angelina momentarily lost her balance when she took a tumble - in a rare moment for the ever-graceful and famously elegant beauty.After her fall she managed to climb back up like an expert, by snapping off her skis and holding onto her pole to best help herself back up. Not content with looking incredibly stylish herself, her two daughters and son were also well-heeled as they opted for luxurious winter-wear alongside their glamorous world-famous mum.
Following the ski session, Angelina and Vivienne took some time to explore the winter resort itself as they headed out for an ice-cream, where they looked the picture perfect duo in matching ski wear as they headed out hand-in-hand to indulge in the tasty treat.Despite pulling the hood over her head, the brunette's naturally striking features and stunning complexion was still clear to see as she took her youngest daughter for an afternoon treat.Clearly following in her mother's footsteps, Vivienne looked equally as chic despite her tender eight years of age in a similarly styled black ensemble. The young blonde, who looks strikingly alike to father Brad, kept cosy in a thick black padded jacket and matching trousers and boots to her mother. Embracing the winter weather more than her mother, the youngster happily left her hood down as she laughed and played in the gentle snowfall. The pair were seen stopping at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for a hot chocolate and an ice-cream to take away.While Vivienne happily indulged in the creamy dessert, Angelina opted for just a coffee as they proceeded to the toy store around the corner for a spot of shopping. Angelina's getaway comes shortly after sources told DailyMail.com that she is surprised by her estranged husband's recent legal move, which saw him seal the records of their six kids, as it is reported she believes it 'makes no sense.' Late last month, Brad's legal team requested an LA Superior Court judge to close the records of their children, claiming it violates their privacy, noting that information on the children's 'therapists and other mental health professionals' has already wound up in publication.It was stated that Angelina 'appears to be determined to ignore even agreed upon standards relating to the children's best interest.' But the actress has already signed a deal agreeing to have the documents sealed, a source tells DailyMail.com. It was added by the insider that because this was already cleared up, the Oscar winner thinks it's a 'press move.'And the Maleficent star also feels that if she really had no regard for his privacy 'she would have already revealed details about what happened on that flight in September.' The family allegedly got into an argument aboard a private plane in September, causing an anonymous source to call the DCFS. The FBI was then involved. Brad has since been cleared. 'The filing makes no sense legally,' the source told DailyMail, 'Everyone was surprised that he filed with the court because he already filed with the court before. Besides, Angelina had already signed an agreement to seal the court file. It protects the children and it also protects information about Brad.'It was added: 'All parties have already agreed and signed. The accusation that she is not protecting the privacy of her children is clearly false.'
The source then added that if Angelina really wanted to hurt Brad, she could have already done so months ago after the fight on the flight from France to the US.'If Angelina wanted to detail what happened on the plane, she could have. Nothing has been released and Angelina has kept silent.'In the documents, Brad's lawyer stated: '[Angelina] apparently has no self-regulating mechanism to preclude sensitive information from being placed in the public record, or she has other motives.'The actress 'exposed the children by making public the names of their therapists and other mental health professionals,' his lawyers added that Jolie released the information twice, adding, 'Although she had already made them public, she did it again.'It's the first time since Jolie's September 19 divorce filing in Los Angeles that Pitt has gone on the offensive against his estranged wife. At the time of the parting, the Allied actor said that 'what matters most now is the well-being of' the six children, adding, 'I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.'The Fight Club star was exonerated in November by officials with the FBI and Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services amid accusations he was physically abusive to Maddox during a Europe-bound flight in September.The ongoing strife has caused tension in the household in the holiday season, according to an In Touch Weekly report, as an insider said that the children were at odds because Maddox and Pax had 'no interest in seeing their dad' during the tough time.'Some of the girls are accusing their older brother of being responsible for their not seeing Brad either,' the source said. Another insider told the publication that some of the kids 'can't understand why they're being kept away' from Brad.The couple - whose romance began while filming 2005's Mr & Mrs. Smith, while he was still married to Jennifer Aniston - are due back in court next month for a hearing in the ongoing case. He is requesting to share joint physical and legal custody of the six kids with his estranged wife, who wants sole physical custody, with Brad receiving scheduled visits.Angelina - who currently retains temporary physical custody of the children - remains undaunted in her attempts to get sole custody of the kids in spite of her advisers have telling her it's an unlikely scenario, the source told the magazine.'There is just no reasoning with Angie,' the source said. 'She wants what she wants and nothing is going to stop her.'

Brad Pitt Is ‘Broken’ After ‘Worst’ Christmas As Angelina Jolie And Their Kids Visit Colorado

Brad Pitt had the “worst” Christmas ever following his September 2016 split from Angelina Jolie.According to a new report, the 53-year-old actor had a miserable holiday season after his request to have more time with his kids, Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 8, was allegedly denied at the end of last year.“[Brad Pitt] desperately misses having his kids with him for Christmas and New Year,” an insider explained to the Mail, according to a report by The Mirror on January 1. “He’s broken down in tears so many times – he’s not ashamed to cry anymore. Brad is like a broken man.” Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been separated since September of this year and in the months that followed Jolie’s divorce filing, which included a request for full physical custody, the children have been living with her full-time.According to the report, a hearing was held in regard to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s custody case last Wednesday and while neither attended, attorneys reportedly submitted information to their judge via email that shed more light on the ongoing situation with their children.In one email, the attorney of Brad Pitt, Lance Spiegel, said that although his client has complied with the child therapy process, “the therapy team has ignored or disregarded issues that [Brad] has raised.” Brad Pitt and his family have been in therapy since after his split from Jolie, which was followed by outrageous allegations of child abuse and two child abuse investigation, one by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services and another by the FBI.
Once the investigations against Brad Pitt were dropped with no charges being filed, the actor’s lawyers asked his estranged wife’s legal team if she would agree to allow him more time with their children during the month of December. As the outlet explained, Brad Pitt requested his visitation take place during 30 to 60 minute monitored sessions. A short while later, Jolie reportedly rejected his request and her attorney allegedly accused Pitt and his team of ignoring the best interests of their children, which was decided by their therapists on a prior date.At the end of last month, a therapist allegedly agreed to allow Brad Pitt to see his kids on Christmas, but Jolie wasn’t happy about it.“[She’s] furious about this. She’s having a meltdown,” a source revealed to In Touch Weekly magazine before the holiday. “After being told that the kids were cleared to visit [Brad Pitt] at his house she tried to change the terms and have the visit at her home. But she was firmly told no. And that made her furious.”Following Jolie’s divorce filing, in which the actress requested full physical custody, it was revealed that Brad Pitt had filed his response to the documents and requested joint custody of their kids.“[Brad Pitt] filed papers this week wanting everything sealed and attacking Angelina for making details of their battle public, claiming it would hurt the children. One of those details was Angelina naming the therapists who are treating the children. But this is a big victory for Brad as Angelina didn’t even want the kids to see him on Christmas,” the insider added.After Brad Pitt visited with his children on Christmas, Jolie and the kids traveled to Colorado for the New Year and on Sunday, they were seen grabbing an ice cream in Crested Butte. In photos shared by the Daily Mail on January 2, Angelina Jolie was seen holding the hand of Vivienne, her youngest biological daughter with Brad Pitt, as her other biological children, Knox and Shiloh, walked beside her.
