Here are some photos of Angelina Jolie trying to wrangle her kids at LAX on Friday. Angie and the kids spent a week in London and Geneva, where Jolie got a lot of business done. She made a phenomenal speech in Geneva, she guest-lectured at the LSE, she took a private tour of Buckingham Palace with Maddox, she took the kids to a bookstore, she met with William Hague, and she possibly went braless to meet the Archbishop of Canterbury (for the record, I don’t think she was braless, I think she’s just at “full salute” ever since her double-mastectomy and reconstructive surgery). As for the kids… God, they’re getting so big. I can’t even look at Knox and Vivienne without saying to myself, “I remember when they were babies!!”
Ever since Brad Pitt and Angelina reached an uneasy peace in their kids’ custodial situation, I’ve been wondering if there’s a chance that Jolie and Pitt will get back together. I feel guilty for thinking that, but… Angelina still seems to care about Brad, either that or she was just “performing” sadness for the BBC and Good Morning America cameras. But damn, you guys. They were together for 12 years. They have six kids together. Is it possible they could get back together after being apart for a year or so? Who knows? That being said, one thing I don’t worry about is that Brad will “go back” to Jennifer Aniston. That was the story going around last week. It’s not happening. Let it go.
Another piece of the “is reconciliation possible?” theory is that they are absolutely not selling their Chateau Miraval. They are keeping it for now because it’s sort of profitable – they’ve launched a successful wine line, and this year they’re launching a line of olive oil. It’s, like, small-batch olive oil and there will be limited quantities. There’s some gossip that they want to keep Miraval as a “family home” too. How would that work?
PS… I love Jolie’s cardigan-coat thing. It’s gorgeous.

“That being said, one thing I don’t worry about is that Brad will “go back” to Jennifer Aniston. That was the story going around last week. It’s not happening. Let it go.” This rumor has been going on for 12 years. It’s not going to stop now. The funny thing is both Brad and Jennifer said they do occasional phone calls/texts over the years. It’s amusing that now her fans and the media are claiming they are getting back together when it barely made a ripple before.
I don’t think they’ll get back together. People don’t file for divorce on a whim. Whatever happened on the plane was probably the last straw. Especially since Brad was doing things around the kids that left Angelina so angry.
I think it’s hilarious that Aniston’s fans want her to go back to Pitt. What’s Justin supposed to do in the meantime, fade away quietly and disappear?
…like they expected Heidi to.
Couples get mad and say things they don’t mean all the time and then they make up. I’m surprised so many people are buying into the narrative that Brad and Angie went after each other when all accounts of this were based on sources. Over the years many stories about the Jolie-Pitts were based on stories from reported sources that later proved not to be true. These stories sold lots of magazines.
I still believe the break up was more to do with different parenting styles than them falling out of love and suddenly hating each other. I just have a feeling that Angie and Brad were having an argument on the plane and Maddox stepped in and challenged Brad and things got ugly from there. No father will stand for a son challenging him/his authority. I feel this way because of the apparent disagreement between Angie and Brad’s mother during the very last outing they all attended. I think it was Shiloh and Zahara’s soccer match.
I like Brad and Angie but I always thought they would have this problem because of the way they were raised. Brad was raised with boundaries, discipline, and Sunday Church services. Angie was allowed to do whatever she wanted without set boundaries and I’m sure she wants her children raised the same way.
I’m curious. What disagreement with Jane Pitt? Did I miss something?
Brad always said that he felt unhappy with the way he was raised as a child. That he did not believe in God, that he wanted to travel and know the world ….. he sought a life completely different from the one he was raised by his parents. Brad loves to travel, and one of his best friends says that he always thought Brad wanted to enjoy life to the fullest and that it was in Angelina that he found this opportunity, someone who was hugged life to the fullest.
Brad was drunk and maybe drugged on the plane, certainly he was not in a position to argue with anyone, especially if Maddox saw that he was getting out of control ….. Brad has to do several tests weekly to prove that he is not consuming anything ….. Brad always said that he was the playful father and that Angelina was the one who always organized everything and disciplined the children more. And that with Angelina’s surgeries he had to spend more on his children and be the bad cop more than usual ….
Surely the fall-out from the separation showed things were very toxic for a long time. They both went in on each other straight away, hacking away at the others image. I don’t think a healthy relationship can be be restored after that kind of mud-slinging. An unhealthy one, sure, but who would ever want that for people with children?
I am holding out hope of them getting back together. Like she said, they coming out stronger after this.
I don’t think they’ve even struck a custody deal personally. I think she still has those kids for over 90% of the time. Also I expect that if a deal had been reached then Brad would be sure to let the world know by way of one public appearance with the kids. It’s not in his interests to hide something like that. As for the vineyard, it is possible that one of them wants to keep it and so a purchase deal is being worked out. Or that the business is run by a trust and thats therefore not an entanglement they have to end. I hope to God we are not entering a gossip era of “will they; won’t they”. They won’t. It’s over. The most you can hope for is thawing into friends. (Cue Friends theme song)
I feel the same way.
Brad doesn’t travel as much as she does, and pictures would be harder to come by. For all we know, he could’ve had the kids before they left on this trip. Remember, when B&A were together they got photo’d when they wanted to get photo’d, especially in Los Angeles.
Talie, we really don’t know that about Brad. Besides her short UNCHR related engagements, and traveling to their properties, Angelina pretty much just went to work on her movies, and she took all or most of the family, including Brad with her, whereas Brad was traveling solo. He goes to Germany, trips to the France property, work engagements like that racing trip, et all.
He was actually away from the rest of the family a lot. It is unfair to pile all on Angelina. I think they are even in that aspect.
He might stay put now precisely to give an appearance of more stability trying to get part of the custody now, and being that his executive producing work is not so direct with the movies.
I wish them the best and I hope they can get to agree and coparent in peace.
@Ennie Correct. Brad travels a lot, probably as much as Angie. She travels with a few kids and he takes solo trips. Even when they moved the family for one of their films Angie took all the kids to the location and Brad traveled alone. To be honest I think Angie is better at handling all the kids. I know they have nannies but Brad and Angie hsve said she was the organized one and planner in the family.
LOL From Jully 2016 Brad travel more tham Angelina
Is it suspicious that Brad Pitt has been traveling solo all summer?
I think Brad was coming back to LA after spending much of last week in New York? Brad has actually been traveling a lot this summer. He wrapped on Allied, the film with Marion Cotillard, back in May. Since then, he’s been going back and forth from France to New York to LA in a seemingly endless loop.
http://www.celebitchy.com/496625/is_it_suspicious_that_brad_pitt_has_been_traveling_solo_all_summer/
Brad stayed away from the family filming Allied, when he came back he continued traveling alone even Celebitchy realized, Brad was not having a common behavior …….. and the strangest is the little we saw of the brad alone with the children. …. I think that this is the most serious … I think the main problem was between Brad and the children.
I don’t think they are getting back together in a romantic sense, but they do have 6 children and I can see in the future when Pitt has healed his relationship with all his children where they can do things together with their children while living separate lives.
If Brad only had substance issues and his behaviour changed because of that then I think there is a chance they might get together.
If Brad has been to rehab and finally realised he damaged the family then yes possible reconciliation.
Whatever happened on that plane was traumatising enough that the children needed therapy. And apparently they also went through couple therapy as well.
Either way good luck to them and their 6 children – lots of families have been torn apart because substance abuse and some have even managed to heal and live a happy life together.
Agreed, Maya!
That’s the only way I can see any chance of a reconciliation.
She looks stunning!…Brangelina getting back together?..who knows…in Video Brads Bodyguard is with them here & we haven’t seen him since the divorce announcement so who knows so maybe things are “healthier”..who knows…
Actually he has been seen with them on several occasions. I remember reading in some of the docs that they still both use their security teams. Brad Personal assistant was at the airport when they left. and his Head security guy was with them when they were seen moving to another home. So you see the same security people around them
It was only seen when Angelina and the kids moved to Hidden Hills. He has always been with Brad, and the other one that is Brad’s PA Yes from the beginning appears with the family, taking Pizza in Malibu, looking for them at the airport and going out with Pax and Maddox …. another detail that shows that Brad was aware of everything that was happening
Am I the only one who sees lightness in these photos? Kids seem as normal as they could be – she looks happy. I love that cardigan coat – perfect for long flights!
The nipple thing – post reconstruction that’s how nipples are, end of story.
@Jb..Yes, she and the kids seem very happy. I believe that they are possibly working on their relationship as well.
I think they should divorce. Brad needs to get his s**t together maybe down the road they could date ala Goldie& Kurt.
Her style is the antithesis of the Kardashians – comfortable and classic. Also, bravo on the Geneva speech, which reminded me of Samantha Power’s “Chasing the Flame,” a beautiful account of Sergio Vieira de Mello’s work and life.
Her style is classic, but I think it’s quite boring, and I’m a fan. It’s just whites, creams, beiges and blacks. I wish she’d mix it up some more. Wear colors here and there.
Even though she is stunning woman she doesn’t like to stand out from the crowd, she loves to wear plain clothes.
I agree that her style is plain, but what I love about it is that–at least for me–it implies that one has to make a choice. It’s impossible to be equally invested in everything. As a professional woman, mother–etc, the whole shebang–it really pleases me to see someone who has chosen to foreground other issues. Like, one doesn’t have to be a UN ambassador, seasonal lecturer, mother, actress, screenwriter, director, AND fashionista.
I wouldn’t really be surprised if they got back together. Brad and Angie… Not Brad and Jen.
I could see Brad and Jen reuniting. Huvane can spin a story about Justin and Jennifer’s relationship not working because of distance or something to get Justin out of the picture. If Brad snapped his fingers, I think Jennifer would sprint back to him with quickness. Brad has a lot of charm.
Brad and Angelina, I can’t seem them reuniting. I don’t believe she would have divorced him the way she did if there was still love between them. And, I still believe Brad wanted out for awhile but didn’t want to be the one to file.
So instead he hurt his son to get Angelina to divorce him. Mmk.
this coming from one of brangelina biggest fan:
hell no angelina, no brad pitt please!!
do the parents thing but after all the bus throwing he did to your family in the past 7 months , i have no respect for this tool.
I’ve wondered if they’ll get back together but dont think now it willhappen. There seems to be a deep difference in values between them, in addition to whatever happened on the plane. Not surprised about miraval tho. It took years after the aniston divorce to unwind their involvement in plan b.
LOL.. it didn’t take “years regarding” Plan B. Jennifer was an Equity Owner. Brad Pitt and Brad Grey were the main owners. Jennifer got a few movies that didn’t amount to much. Brad kept the majority of the products. Brad and Jennifer had a Production Company that was basically eaten by Plan B (2 Brads). When Brad and Aniston got divorced she tired to get more of the company and found that it was not going to happen. She as I said got a few movies. Nothing more. Brad kept the Production Company going. Paying the employees out of his pocket. And if you look at each of their Productions Companies all these years later.. Plan B and Echo. it is clear to see who actually had vision and who was able to build something of importance.
These photos are adorable. I’m sure she’s very image conscious, and she looks like she is being dragged along by Zahara and but she doesn’t look like she minds at all.
Even when they were together the kids most of times traveled with her all of them or the small ones. Brad rarely seen traveling with the twins, never seen him took the 6 kids as he always said the one who organise the family travel is Angie. If we see Brad with the kids around LA or traveling is going to be with some of the kids not the whole lots of the 6 kids.
Brad was much more devoted to his children, he tried harder to help Angelina, and yet he said that she always did more, that he was sometimes on the couch (he must live there … kkkk … with Jennifer Was the same thing) and that he thought he needed to get up and help more …..
In 2016 we saw a Brad away from the family, traveling alone, making another film very close to the other, without giving him time to reconnect with the family ….
Even more after all the surgeries that Angelina has undergone, she must have become more overwhelmed, tired … if we look Angelina is 12 years younger than Brad, but Brad does not seem to have a concern in the world …. yet More now that he was obliged to take care …….. he is with an appearance of rested, much younger … could not see nor traces of sadness in him …. not to the end of Marriage, but because 2 of your children did not even want to talk to you …. or he can undo it well … or he has serious relationship problems ….
I want them to have shared custody. And that Brad really sees what it’s really like to take care of the 6 children, to organize everything … he always said that it was Angelina who took care of everything …. sometimes we have to feel the skin, to know how to give value …. And I think it will be good for Angelina also not having to be responsible for the children always ….
I mean, who knows…judging by what she said about it, it is likely that they’re working on rebuilding their relationship (idk if in the romantic sense). The kids’ well being is obviously the most important thing at the moment…we’ll see. Also, I always love me some AJ’s street style appreciation. I would absolutely wear many of the things she wears (Shoes! Handbags! Coats!! Pantsuits!!!)
She doesn’t get credit for her style. She is not the most fashionable celebrity; but I love the pieces she wears. Everything it timeless. The boats, coats, sweaters, her dresses. Everything will stand the passage of time. And she has the best handbags. I would love to raid her closet on those alone
She has nice individual pieces (sunglasses, bags and coats) but her complete style is lacking.
Brad seems like he can’t be single for long and will hook up with another woman soon. He may continue just hooking up and breaking up. He just strikes me like a Kate or ScarJo. Long term commitment (with a spouse) is just not for them. After a while, they need some other simulation or prefer being free. Angie seems like she can handle being by herself. I feel they’re better off separating and co-parenting. I think people like Gwyneth, Kate, Brad and ScarJo are better off this way.
I don’t think it is fair to characterized Brad as some kind of man going from relationship to relationship. All of his relationships have been long termed. He has never been some Hollywood Male ho. And since when is a man wanted to be in a committed relationship all of a sudden a bad thing. Women complain about men not committing. He commits. Don’t see that as a negative thing. If he wanted to just sleep around he is and has been for many years a man that could do that. That was never his reputation. Angie has been married and divorced 3 times. Brad 2. They both obviously have some issue to fix.
Regardless of what has happened with he and Angie. Brad has always been a good man. A mistake regardless of how big it was shouldn’t erase that. Any relationship is about 2 people. It takes 2 people. Brad is the one that is the focus of this mess. But he was not in a marriage alone. And if it broke then they both have some part of that. Not just him. I just hope this all works out for the best. The worse thing is to look back and regret the loss of something. And know that you didn’t do all that could be done to save it before you let it go.
Hi Nemera, I don’t know what went wrong entirely in this relationship. Sure Brad was under investigation and counselled but that’s all we know. Before the incident, I agree Brad had a good image. Something changed and all I wish is that both and the kids emerge better off.
I totally agree Brad is not a man hoe and actually I think this term hoe is weird for consensual sex between single folks. What I meant is that Brad and his like (for lack of a better word, I apologise) don’t seem to like to be alone and single for long. They jump into relationships fast. Like you, I would also term them as committed and no it’s not a bad thing. It is just their style. I just think they can’t be single for long because they like the idea of being in love and of settling down because it is expected. Some of us have friends like that in real life haha. And then when they get attached, they like to be what their partner wants them to be. Notice the weird image mirroring that Brad underwent going from Juliette to Gwyneth to Jennifer to Angie. All of these is my speculation of course and these relationships could have broken down due to many reasons. That was also a good point about Angie. She did have two divorces herself. I just think that was a phase in her youth and saying that now, she seems more contented to be her own person. Thus, if Brad is looking for another relationship again but Angie is not, then they’re not on the same page anymore and shouldn’t reconcile. Perhaps there is still love which would not pass; it was 10 years after all. Just not looking for the same things anymore.
its odd to me to bring her troop with her for one week in London. I love her so I’m not judging her but if it was me, I would have either had them stay with Brad or left them with someone I trust they trust and gone and had a break for myself. It’s a lot on the children to go back and forth like that and it just seems a little bit weird to me. Again I’m not critical of her. Maybe she can’t due to the divorce custody situation but if you had to travel foe a week would you bring all your children?
No,absolutely not. Two way jetlag US-UE and then UE-US is devastating even for adults. For me it would be better to leave kids at home (with their uncle or even grandparents),meet and greet with whoever I need to, have some speech or two and then go back home and have family time.
Maybe all of the children wanted to go with their Mom.
If you follow the family she always bring all the kids with her even Brad when they’re traveling. Is not right to judge her now that they’re in the middle of divorce, but she usually takes the kids with her, look back all the pictures for the last 12 years they’re been together nothing has change her traveling habit.
Fa, looking back at how she used to do things it is odd that she took the entire crew with her. I don’t ever remember seeing her travel with all 6 for humanitarian/work trips.
i think it says something about where their custody issues are – still not over and the judge appointed a new therapist because I guess Pitt had an issue with the last 6. Seems the new guy came to the same conclusion.
The only time she left kids is when she is visiting refugees camps this trip wasn’t, it was a trip to Europe.
Even when she had to go to London for a speech she took 2 kids and left the other kids in LA … And Pitt was off filming in Spain or wherever. So I do think it is odd how she took all 6 this time when their dad is actually in LA. Or maybe he wasn’t – who knows either way it’s odd and I think it means he gave up custody or the therapist still thinks the kids should be with Angelina and should not be left alone with Pitt 🤔
Maybe they have friends in London? I think they do have people they cultivate relationships with there. Maddox even had a girlfriend there, so…
I think they love each other and if they can get past the media tabloid stories they just might make it. 12 years, 6 kids, Angelina’s health scares, Brad’s I don’t know what to call it (midlife crisis, alcohol, ??)whatever. Like them as a family.
If Maddox and Pax aren’t cool with it I doubt they’ll get back together.
And they’ve never let media tabloid spin interfere before with them, before.
Well, she already removed the Pitt from her name. I think it all depends on her children- if Maddox and Pax can’t stand Pitt she won’t go back to him.
I think it is very telling that she took all 6 of her kids with her on that trip. She usually only takes 2 with her on trips like that. So, I don’t think things are going as well as some fans hoped for things between Pitt and the kids.
She’s taken 4 or 5 at a time before. So it isn’t a big stretch that she’d take 6. I have to say I cannot remember her ever using Pitt on her name anyway, either. Except on the occasional movie credit.
The kids are getting older. Maybe she took all six because it’s getting easier to travel with all six…?
I can’t imagine Brad would go back to Aniston, not after learning she cheated on him with Matt LeBlanc and then smeared him and Angelina and their kids while then going between Theroux and Bivens. I think Aniston has shown her true colors and how evil and cruel and manipulative she can be.
The same could be said for Brad using his Pr team and tabloids to smear Angelina. He let his lawyer go hard against her knowing damn well he did something really bad on that plane that made Maddox and pax hate him. Instead of taking responsibility he lashed out on Angelina. Could she forgive that?
I remember his good friend once laughed at a cartoon drawing of her her shooting Angelina – the mother of Brad Pitt’s 6 kids but I guess he doesn’t care. 🤔 I would not be surprised if we see a paparazzi photos of Pitt with Aniston and Theroux or just Aniston because he’s all about his image. That’s all he seems to care about.
What I find amusing about this triangle that just won’t die is that Justin seems to have no bearing in anyone’s mind. Its like he’s so inconsequential that when they manage to remember him, its like “Oh, her publicist can just spin it around somehow. Justin, just beat it. And here’s your obligatorily mention and a pacifier” . lol
I never thought Brad & Angie were a good fit, I mean, aesthetically they were perfect but otherwise I think they were essential opposites. I don’t think he belongs with Jen either. I think Brad needs to be with a lesser known…someone not associated with Hollywood like Matt Damon did. On a side note I can’t believe how much those kids have grown, Z is almost as tall as Angie. A really beautiful family
She didn’t part with BBT on good terms but they rekindled their friendship. She’s also on good terms with JLM. She might have been seriously mad at BP for a while, but I think if he does clean up for the kids somewhat she’ll be back on good terms as a friend to him as an ex-hubby. I think them managing that French estate as co-owners wouldn’t be a problem. But if they’re keen on selling, there wouldn’t be many buyers anyway since it’s tens of millions of dollars. They’d probably build up the revenue streams and product range before listing it.
And years later Billy Bob admitted that he disappointed and messed up the relationship.
Angelina grew up and he could not bear the responsibility
He said that Angelina was one of the only people who never abandoned him, and that she was one of the first friends he actually had after his brother died …. Billy Bob is full of complexes and certainly felt inferior to Angelina. … I think Angelina is very calm, and we see from these other cases when these Hollywood actors at a certain age are so needy, needy, they go into crisis
When her mother died she said Billy Bob told her she would never get over but would learn to live with it. They seem to have an awesome friendship
,
I think it would only come back if Brad really left Hollywood ……. Brad even with a successful producer Plan B, he knows he has to play the game …. you would trust a guy who still has the Same talent agent. Bryan Lourd who along with Jennifer Aniston agent Stephen Huvane thought that Brad and Jennifer would be a perfect couple and propose a meeting of the two … and there are still people who find Brad and Jennifer relationship romantic , it’s more than In the face that was a bargain for both. And I think a lot of people inside the CAA must have gotten pissed off with Angelina …….. Now it was Brad’s turn to take responsibility, to take all the blame and do the right from the start …. But what we saw was a strange Brad, wanting to protect his image at any cost and the worst throwing Angelina and their children to the sharks ……. Angelina alone having to defend and protect the children ……
What difference would it make if Brad and Brad’s people had really cared about the family and issued a better statement, and after the investigation had closed, he would had apologized to the family and would do his best to have the relationship between him And the children recovered … even the incident having brought all the trauma to the children, Angelina from the beginning only spoke in family, healed, that she was following the recommendations of DCFS and that she hoped that recovery and healing would happen.
I think Angelina deserves a better man for her. I just hope that Brad as a father does not disappoint his children and at least get well, really look to take care of therapy that helps him have a good relationship with his children.
What Angelina spent in those 12 years, so many attacks of, websites, magazines, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer aniston friends, Brad Pitt friends …… and spend what she spent during one of the most difficult times, the fear of being in An investigation with the DCFS with 6 children 3 of them adopted ….. could have happened at all …. even having the children taken out of her…
Hmph. I highly doubt there will be any reconciliation – she burned that bridge! Actually, blew it up, not just burnt it. I still don’t believe he’s a monster.
Same here. I’m astonished that a mother who drags the kids with her all over the globe on a weekly basis is considered a great mom. They should have some stability in their lives, especially during divorce.
Traveling on a weekly basis? Really???
You should up your gossip game.
So many Angelina bashers like if the children were hers alone. They have always traveled a lot, I guess like ke many jet setter children. They actually have stayed put longer for the last two years, especially after the divorce announcement. They’ve only been seen lately at the skiing resort, Cambodia for the premiere and now to the London lectures.
Brad HAD to give permission for them to go. He agrees with this lifestyle. He has shared and encouraged this lifestyle since they git together, they take the children because they believed that families stay together, and they have said that they believe that children benefit from meeting all kind of people and having all kind of multicultural experiences. All of the children are binational, even Angelina has Cambodian honorary nationality. Funny that is Angelina’s fault everytime.
PS I love how Zahara is a young lady now. She was such a tiny cute baby, their first little girl. They are a beautiful family, I hope they really get to work out their differences and Brad demonstrates that he wants and deserves sharing time with the children. Some fathers are just happy with being short time parents, I really hope he wants it badly enough to get to agree with true shared custody. I loved to spend time with my imperfect father, so I am projecting a little, I hope he improves himself enough.
Yeah but you’re opinion doesn’t mean anything, the SEVEN therapists seem to be on her side. So…
Also she said nothing against him . People want to forget that he himself and his Or team made him look like an abuser. “Nose to nose. Put hand on him” all came from Brad’s team. Angelina and her team were very quiet and only said it was about their family health. He went crazy defending himself before it was needed.
She obliterated that damn bridge.😁
What bridge? Im confused because all she said from the beginning was it was about her kids. He came out and said he went nose to nose with his son and put hands on him. Angelina never put that info out there. So really what bridges ? he burnt the bridge when he hurt her kids.
Please do come back and explain.
Wow, I am out of breath just trying to skim through the comments and all the detailed accounts of their lives, specific travel plans, individuals on their security detail, shared investments and so on. Either some serious mega mega Jolie/Pitt fan/stalker is trolling the comments, or people just know way way more details about this (former) couple than I ever have – and I love my gossip 🙂
I used to be Team Aniston years ago, but for a long time I’ve very much respected and admired Angelina.
Her children aren’t going to be damaged just from experiencing some jet lag. They’re pros now. They’ve been travelling all over the world for years, and they’ve always been known to be very polite and well behaved children. She’s doing something right.
