Amid Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's heated custody battle over their six children together, the two recently reached an interim custody arrangement, a source close to the situation tells ET. According to the source, Jolie and Pitt had a planned custody hearing, though it was no longer necessary after reaching the agreement. At this time, there are not details on the specifics of the agreement.The source says, “The interim arrangement was agreed upon by both parties after it was recommended by their custody evaluator.” “There was no longer a need for the hearing,” the source adds. Additionally, the source tells ET that “Angelina is enjoying the last few days of summer before school starts,” adding, “she is helping the children heal with their father.” A second source tells ET that an interim agreement has been in place for a while, and a more permanent custody deal has yet to be decided. “Nothing has changed,” says the source, adding that the estranged couple is trying to be “amicable for the children.” ET has reached out to reps for both Jolie and Pitt. Jolie and Pitt's custody battle made headlines again earlier this month, after the 43-year-old actress accused Pitt of not paying any "meaningful" child support for a year and a half in a court filing, and said she is planning to get a court order mandating that he pay it. Pitt's lawyers filed their response one day later, and in court papers obtained by ET, Pitt denied that he hasn't paid any significant child support and claimed that he'd paid Jolie over $9 million since their September 2016 split. "Respondent has previously loaned Petitioner $8.0 million to assist her in purchasing her current residence and has paid over $1.3 million in bills for the benefit of Petitioner and the minor children," the documents read.Pitt's lawyers also took shots at Jolie and her lawyers, writing that Jolie's lawyers previously made no mention of any child support issues and that the sudden effort to schedule a hearing on the subject is "calculated to increase the conflict." "Petitioner's Request is unnecessary, omits material information and is a thinly-veiled effort to manipulate media coverage," the court filing reads. But in a statement to ET, one of Jolie's lawyers, Samantha Bley DeJean of the Law Offices of Bley and Bley, said that Jolie's request for child support "was both legally appropriate and factually accurate in all respects." Jolie's spokesperson, Mindy Nyby, also told ET in a statement at the time that the actress actually just wanted to move the divorce process forward with her new court filing. “The aim of Angelina’s routine court filing is to provide closure to the marriage in a way that clears a path toward the next stage of their lives and allows her and Brad to recommit as devoted co-parents to their children," the statement read. The recent court drama came after Jolie was ordered by a judge in June to help repair her children's relationship with 54-year-old Pitt. According to the court documents obtained by ET at the time, the actor will now get more time with five of his children -- 14-year-old Pax, 13-year-old Zahara, 12-year-old Shiloh and 10-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne -- over the summer, while 16-year-old Maddox, "because of his age and maturity," can determine how much time he wants to spend with his father. A separate source recently told ET that Jolie and Pitt are “far from the finish line” when it comes to their ongoing divorce. "Angelina loves her children and wants the best for them," the source said. "The trouble is she feels the best scenario for the kids is for her to have sole custody. She is prepared to do what it takes to get what she wants. .... Everyone involved has tried to explain to Angelina that having two parents in their children's lives is healthier in the long run, but she does not see it that way." "Brad and Angelina have been encouraged repeatedly to settle this divorce amicably for the children's sake, but Angelina's expectations have actually slowed the process and have affected everyone involved," the source continued.
Angelina Jolie NOT Marrying English Billionaire, Despite Report

Angelina Jolie is not marrying an English billionaire, despite a completely false tabloid cover story. Gossip Cop can debunk the bogus report. The actress isn’t preparing to walk down the aisle again anytime soon.According to In Touch, Jolie is eager to finalize her divorce from Brad Pitt because she wants to be free to wed a “British philanthropist” who she’s supposedly dating. An alleged insider tells the magazine, “She thinks she’s found a real winner in husband No. 4. Angelina really feels she hit the jackpot with her Englishman.”The supposed source goes on to say that Jolie is very impressed by the philanthropist’s dedication to helping others, as well as his massive fortune. “With this billionaire, money will never be an issue,” adds the alleged tipster. “Who knows – maybe she’s doing Maleficent 2 because she has to do it.”The questionable insider further contends that Jolie was introduced to the Englishman “by a mutual friend in the human rights community,” but the two have “done their best to keep their relationship discreet.” Tellingly, the outlet doesn’t mention exactly when and where the actress met her supposed suitor. Nor does it furnish any details about him, including his name, physical attributes or age.Meanwhile, it’s alleged that Pitt isn’t happy about the situation because “he’s dead set against her new man being involved in the kids’ lives.” The “source” adds, “Brad feels strongly that he is the kids’ one and only father. He’s trying to repair his relationship with them. The last thing he needs is a billionaire who wants a trophy wife swooping in.”
“Even as [Angelina] continues to fight Brad, she’s excited to marry someone who can provide for her and her children,” continues the seemingly nonexistent insider. “She didn’t expect to fall for someone so soon after splitting up with Brad. But she did. The fact that he’s a billionaire is icing on the cake.” Only, Jolie has never been spotted with any mystery men and spends almost all of her time with her six children, so the tabloid’s article lacks all logic. People magazine, a much more reliable celebrity news outlet than In Touch, reported a few months ago that Jolie “is absolutely not seeing anyone and will not be.” The outlet further noted, “She has no interest in dating at all.” E! News backed up the report by also confirming that Jolie is “not dating” and is “very focused on her kids.”Additionally, the tabloid has recycled this phony narrative several times. Last November, Gossip Cop busted the magazine for falsely claiming that Jolie was planning a “secret wedding” with a “British philanthropist and businessman.” In May of last year, the outlet made up a story about Jolie having a wedding in Cambodia with the alleged mystery man.And just one month prior, Gossip Cop debunked the magazine’s article claiming Jolie was getting married to her “wealthy British boyfriend.” It’s becoming very clear that this man doesn’t exist and there’s no wedding on the horizon. The tabloid’s latest take on the ongoing narrative is more nonsense.

Angelina Jolie is “insanely jealous” of Amal Clooney, friends say, “because she believes Amal has stolen her identity” as the world’s most prominent, glamorous humanitarian.One source tells Page Six: “Angelina hates all the attention that Amal is getting — she’s beautiful, she’s smart, she’s stylish, she has a beautiful family and she’s doing important human rights work.” Jolie is also fuming that former close friends George Clooney and Amal have publicly taken her soon-to-be ex-husband Brad Pitt’s side in their increasingly messy split — while the fallout from their divorce battle is making Jolie appear “crazy and manipulative.” The source adds, “Angelina lives in such a bubble, she believes that Amal is doing a ‘single white female’ on her, and Angie can’t understand why she herself has become so unpopular in Hollywood. But the truth is, Amal isn’t concerned at all about Angelina — she is fully focused on her family and her work.” While Jolie has six children, runs two charitable foundations — the Jolie-Pitt Foundation and the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation — and holds a role as UN special envoy, Amal is a mother to 1-year-old twins Ella and Alexander, and is an esteemed international human rights lawyer.Not only has Amal made it her mission to help refugees all around the world, but in 2016, she and her Oscar-winning husband started the Clooney Foundation for Justice as a way to fight “for the rights of individuals unfairly targeted by oppressive governments through the courts.”And, just like Jolie, she has spoken at the UN, giving an impressive speech in March about the perils of ISIS.The willowy brunette has also been fêted in Vogue and is close friends with editor Anna Wintour, who attended her lavish September 2014 nuptials in Venice to George. Amal also joined Wintour to co-host this year’s swanky Met Ball.Reps for Amal and Angelina didn’t get back to us.

It was poised to be the most bitter of Hollywood break-ups, as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt traded blows over custody and finances. However, it seems actress and humanitarian Jolie, 43, is now offering an olive branch to her estranged husband. A source close to the star told MailOnline that Jolie's 'anger is dissolving' and far from an emotional war being on the cards, she now wants to reach 'a peaceful truce' with Brad - but only 'if his side are keen.' The couple, who share six children, Maddox, 17, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 12; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 10 and wed in 2014, have watched their love affair unravel and turn increasingly acrimonious in recent months, as their respective legal teams prepare to go to battle over money and access to their children. However, the actress and humanitarian has revealed that a new, healthier lifestyle is helping her take a more zen approach to the break-up.The single mother is embarking on a well-being overhaul, to ensure she's 'divorce-ready' when lawyers get to the more brutal parts of splitting the couple's assets.Jolie made the shock announcement in September 2016 that she was filing for divorce from Pitt, and the superstar couple's separation has since descended into a media circus, something which has left her at her lowest ebb, both mentally and physically.While there are millions of pounds at stake - legal costs already stand at £4 million between them - Angelina has had time to reflect on how important money really is when it comes to happiness.The source said: 'If there's one thing the past couple of years has taught Angie, it's that money does not buy you happiness, it's your health that counts.'After rediscovering her love for martial arts, first fostered during her role as Lara Croft in the blockbuster Tomb Raider films, the actress has been taking daily boxing classes with a personal trainer in a bid to gain the energy she needs to ensure she stays fit and calm during negotiations.
The source told MailOnline: 'She looks great and it's lovely to see her putting her own health and that of the children before all the mess that's going on with Brad. 'She says her anger is dissolving and she wants to reach a peaceful truce with Brad - if his side are keen.'Angie loves martial arts, she has done since her Tomb Raider days and right now she really wants to train her body so she feels mentally clear too. ' In addition to getting in the ring, the star is also eating a healthy diet, taking part in daily New Age yoga sound baths to help her mentally prepare for divorce and also taking a vitamin supplement called Lumity to help her sleep.It isn't just Angelina who's feeling stronger and healthier, the actress has been passing on her positive vibes to her children too, with them enjoying karate and football classes. Said the source: 'Angie started showing them some of her old moves at home and realised how out of shape she was and decided there and then to get into prime physical fitness again.'She and the kids have been taking classes together to cook nutritious, organic meals.' 'Plus, they're all cutting back on soda and making their own probiotic-packed fizzy kombucha at home which they love and is so good for your immune system.' As well as building up her strength and agility and has focused heavily on her mental health too; including bathing in Tibetan sound baths every evening, which are said to help stave off depression and stress and even help to heal pain.
The source said that recent weeks have seen the star rejuvenated: 'It's tough as she's really not done any exercise in so long because she simply hasn't had the energy.'But Angie's gradually building up strength and agility and is slowly putting on weight. She wants to feel happy and healthy this is not at all about getting a new man or how she looks during awards season.' A special vitamin blend too is also helping the actress feel ready for the courtroom, and the ensuing media glare.The source said: 'Angie is also taking a natural vitamin mix before bed called Lumity which she says is helping her to sleep and in the morning she's drinking seaweed shakes.'It seems Brad is focusing on his health too as he prepares to battle for his millions; the Fight Club star is now teetotal and has kicked tobacco. The 54-year-old A-lister is also said to have been consulting a therapist to help keep him calm during the emotionally difficult time.
