Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's frosty relationship has allegedly begun to thaw.The exes, who endured a shock split in 2016 and an ugly custody battle in the years since, are in a better place now in regards to co-parenting than ever, according to PEOPLE on Wednesday.'It’s taken them a long time, with a lot of family therapy, to get to this point,' said the magazine's source. Part of the reason for the therapy is to help work out how Pitt, 56, 'could be a dad again'.Making things easier is the fact that the couple's children, Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, and Knox, 11, and daughters Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and Vivienne, 11 'are no longer dealing with separation issues from Angie,' continued the source.And since Brad and Angelina live close to one another in Los Angeles, 'the younger kids go back and forth between their houses.' Last last month in a DailyMail.com exclusive, Brad was photographed leaving Angelina's mansion in Los Feliz, an early sign that their equation with each other was improving. Although they got together in 2005 they waited until 2014 to get married, only for Angelina to file for divorce in September 2016.Since then they have battled legally over custody and finances, with Angelina reportedly demanding more money than Brad wanted to give.Living arrangements also became a sticking point as Brad was allegedly preventing Angelina from moving out of the country with their children.'I would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18,' she told Harper's Bazaar late last year for their December/January issue. 'Right now I’m having to base where their father chooses to live.' Brad has confessed to having been an alcoholic before Angelina left him but he has since gotten sober, and last year a judge granted him more time with the children.The Maleficent star gave birth to Vivienne and Knox in Nice, less than 200km from her and Brad's Chateau Miraval in the South Of France.Angelina and Brad went to Namibia for Shiloh's birth and had the government enforce a no-fly zone over the area they were in.An official at Namibia's Washington embassy dished at that time: 'The government has decided that it will issue visas to journalists to go to Namibia and cover Angelina and Brad if they have consent from the parties.' Near the start of this year's coronavirus lockdowns Angelina donated $1 million to No Kid Hungry, a organization to feed underprivileged children and their families.She has worked extensively with the United Nations and co-wrote a Time essay published in March plugging UNESCO's new Global Education Coalition, which was started to facilitate remote education as schools closed around the world.Angelina has jetted around the world in service of various causes and in 2012 got special envoy status from the United Nations High Commissioner For Refugees.

Angelina Jolie was seen out and about for the first time in months on Thursday.The 45-year-old actress was spotted with Vivienne, the 11-year-old daughter she shares with ex Brad Pitt, as the duo went shopping in the Los Angeles suburb of Los Feliz.The Tomb Raider star and her child each wore a face mask as Coronavirus cases begin to soar in California. Mother and daughter also took the extra precaution of donning latex gloves as they stepped out of their SUV.Jolie looked angelic in a white summer dress, worn with pink flat-soled shoes.She wore her wavy brunette tresses loose and cascading across her shoulders as the pair grabbed some pet supplies. The pair naturally had security in tow for the shopping trip. Vivienne, meanwhile, kept things simple in jeans and a gray T-shirt.Her blonde tresses were pulled back in a high pony tail as she grabbed some quarantine essentials with her movie star mom close by her side.Doting mother Angelina at one point draped her arm across her little girl's shoulder. Jolie was last seen early last month, when she was interviewed by HarpersBazaarUK, during which she discussed life in lockdown, but did not touch on the issue of her acrimonious split from Pitt. The pair famously fell in love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, while Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston. After years of dating, they got married in 2014 before their shock split in 2016.The pair share children Maddox, 18; Pax, 16; Zahara, 15; Shiloh, 14; and twins Vivienne and Knox, 11.n the period that followed their initial separation in 2016, the pair duked it out in court over custody and financial arrangements, with Pitt arguing he'd provided more than adequate funding but Angie demanding a greater share of his $300 million fortune. The bitter custody battle is also known to have stemmed in no small part from the actress' desire to move the children abroad.Brad vehemently opposed taking the kids abroad via his legal team.Back in November last year she admitted: 'I would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18,' she said. 'Right now, I'm having to base where their father chooses to live.'In June last year, Brad – who admitted being an alcoholic at the time of their split but is now fully sober – secured a legal breakthrough when a judge ruled he would be permitted more time with the children. He is now believed to see them every few days.And things seem to have thawed between Jolie and Pitt recently, with the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star snapped leaving Jolie's $24 million Los Feliz home on a motorcycle last Tuesday. It marked the first time he'd been spotted on her turf since their split.

Angelina Jolie opened up about the importance of honoring her three adopted children's roots in an interview with Vogue on Friday.When asked about navigating raising adopted and biological siblings together, the 45-year-old Maleficent actresses spoke of respecting all of her children's cultural heritages. 'Each is a beautiful way of becoming family. What is important is to speak with openness about all of it and to share. ‘Adoption’ and ‘orphanage’ are positive words in our home,' the Oscar winner explained. She added: 'With my adopted children, I can’t speak of pregnancy, but I speak with much detail and love about the journey to find them and what it was like to look in their eyes for the first time.' Additionally, she noted that 'adopted children come with a beautiful mystery of a world that is meeting yours.' 'When they are from another race and foreign land, that mystery, that gift, is so full,' she said of her experience. Before giving birth to her three youngest children Shiloh, 12, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 11, Jolie became a mom to Maddox, 18, Pax, 16 and Zahara, 15, through adoption. She also stressed her belief that non-biological children should never 'lose touch with where they came from.' 'They have roots that you do not. Honor them. Learn from them. It's the most amazing journey to share,' the humanitarian urged. In the same interview, the movie star spoke of ending her marriage to Brad Pitt, who she met in 2004 on the set of Mr. And Mrs. Smith, for the 'well-being' of kids.'It was the right decision. I continue to focus on their healing. Some have taken advantage of my silence, and the children see lies about themselves in the media, but I remind them that they know their own truth and their own minds,' she told the outlet.She went on to describe her children as 'six very brave, very strong young people.'They former power couple married in August 2014 after 10 years together; Angelina filed for divorce in September 2016.In 2016, Brad and Maddox allegedly got into an argument on a private jet while on the way to Los Angeles, which led to Angelina filing for divorce that year. Brad was later cleared of any wrongdoing in November 2016.Soon after, the judge granted Angelina physical custody of all six kids with Brad continue to have agreed-upon therapeutic visitations with the kids. However, Brad wanted more time with the kids and continued to request it; by December 2016, he requested an emergency hearing to seal all documents surrounding the case, which was denied.By January 2017, they agreed to keep their court documents private in a joint statement but by June 2018, they headed back to court after Angelina was ordered by a judge to help repair Brad's relationship with the kids.He was given more time with the kids, according to Entertainment Tonight.
By August, Angelina accused him of not paying 'meaningful' child support in 1.5 years, which he denied and claimed he paid over $9 million to her since their split, reported the outlet.By September, Angelina reportedly reached out to him to improve their co-parenting relationship. A judge granted them both legal single status on April 12, 2019 while finalizing their divorce.The former lovebirds have agreed on a custody agreement for their kids and are sorting out property and finances, specifically who gets Miraval, their French winery and the place they tied the knot.According to The Blast, Brad filed documents to the court asking to appoint a private judge to enable their discussions to continue, a request the star agreed with.The LA County Court agreed, as long as the pair paid for the judge's time themselves, and a stipulation order was put in place to 'Extend Appointment of Privately Compensated Temporary Judge.'It was revealed in April 2020 that Brad filed paperwork for a stipulation and order about their 'education and transitional support' for their kids on March 16, according to Entertainment Tonight. The Blast revealed that the stipulation said that the former couple agreed on a 'traditional' approach for their children's education. Brad's children have been spending the majority of their time during the pandemic with their mom Angelina, 44, whose $25million home is mere minutes from Brad's mansion. Last month, he threw a party for Shiloh, attended by all of her siblings, even Maddox, who had up until recently been estranged from his father. Pitt has been working hard at mending the rifts in his family, ever since his very public divorce proceedings against Angelina began in 2016. But more recently, sources claim the exes have been 'getting on better' since agreeing on a custody schedule for their children.'Brad's kids are the most important thing to him. He tells his friends he learns so much about life from his own children,' a source told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday.'He and Angie have been getting along so much better since the custody rules have been worked out. They have come so far.'

What Happened To Angelina Jolie Getting Keanu Reeves A Part In ‘The Eternals?

About a year ago, a tabloid claimed Angelina Jolie was trying to get Keanu Reeves a role in the upcoming Marvel film The Eternals for her own personal reasons. This was inaccurate. Gossip Cop busted the phony tale when it came out. As we look back on the bogus story, it’s apparent the tabloid had no idea what it was talking about with this ridiculous article.On June 17, 2019, the tabloid Woman’s Day claimed that Angelina Jolie was campaigning for Keanu Reeves to be a part of the Marvel movie just so she could date him. At the time, rumors were swirling that Reeves was in talks to join the highly anticipated movie, but they were never confirmed by Reeves or the studio. There was also no confirmation from any major publications.Still, Woman’s Day alleged that Jolie was pushing for Reeves to join the cast so a romance could bloom between them. The publication further contended that the actress would have been more than happy to mix “business with pleasure” when it came to Reeves. “She's pushing to have him join the cast and playing an integral part in bringing him on board. She thinks they'd be perfect together,” a supposed insider told the outlet. The idea that Jolie would be advocating for Reeves to join the film just so she can date him is ludicrous and insulting.The magazine tried to depict Jolie as a desperate woman looking to find any reason to have Reeves a part of the film to fulfill her own selfish needs. Gossip Cop’s suspicions were validated when we reached out to our source in Jolie’s camp and were told the story was laughable. They also told us that Jolie was not even interested in dating anyone at the time. Additionally, a week before this story came out, Gossip Cop busted a similar tale from Star that claimed that Angelina Jolie asked Keanu Reeves out on a date.It was clear that Woman’s Day was just taking an already debunked story and trying to recycle it — it didn’t work. Also, the publication’s reliability has been more than questionable. Almost two months ago, the unreliable outlet alleged that Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant were already married. There was no real evidence to support this claim, and Gossip Cop found the story to be misleading given the "sources" the outlet used were unnamed and vague.Last May, the sketchy magazine asserted that Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves were in love. The story was fabricated, especially given that Bullock has been in a long-term relationship with Bryan Randall. Gossip Cop wasted no time in exposing the fictitious story, just as we did with this latest tale.
