Angelina Jolie’s ‘stance is that Brad Pitt needs to get off his high horse’

Angelina Jolie oozes glamour as she emerges from BFI Waterloo in London

Note: this story actually came out several hours before we learned of Brad Pitt’s new girlfriend. I mostly think US Weekly is just talking out of their ass, but for what it’s worth, this is solely about the Jolie-Pitt divorce.

Several weeks ago, Angelina Jolie’s lawyer Samantha DeJean filed a motion to remove the private judge on Angelina and Brad Pitt’s divorce case. Judge Ouderkirk was getting near-constant work from Brad Pitt’s lawyers, and not only that, but the judge did not properly inform DeJean about the other cases. It seemed like a clear-cut situation where the judge should simply recuse himself and both sides could sit down and agree on a replacement. But instead of that, Brad and his team grew hysterical and accused Angelina of everything under the sun. The judge has refused to recuse himself and there will be some kind of hearing about it. DeJean ended up filing a reaction to Brad’s legal filing in which she simply underlined the f–king point that the judge was not impartial and Brad needs to calm down. I have no idea if sources close to Angelina would actually speak to Us Weekly, but I enjoyed this:

Angelina Jolie has had enough of Brad Pitt as they continue to battle it out in their ongoing divorce and custody proceedings, a source exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.

“Her stance is that he needs to get off his high horse and be reasonable in return,” says the source.

Most recently, the former pair — who called it quits in 2016 after a total of 12 years together — have been at war over the private judge handling their case, whom the actress claims is too close to Pitt’s legal team.

“She only wants peace and what’s fair,” even when the actor is allegedly adversarial, says the source, especially when it comes to seeing their children: Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 12-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. Jolie, 45, is “a very protective parent,” adds a second source. “Everything she’s done is for the health of the family.”

While Pitt, 56, is on the same page regarding their kids, he’s not giving into their disagreement so easily, as Us previously reported in early August. “Brad says Angelina has gone way too far this time,” said a source. “He’s left with no other option but to dig in and fight back — hard.”

Is “get off his high horse” code for something? She thinks Brad is being arrogant and high-handed and that’s what’s bugging her? What’s bugging me is that Brad has spent four years smearing Angelina simply because she chose the kids over him. Simply because he was an out-of-control drunk who scared the kids so badly, they’re all still in therapy. And nothing is ever Golden Boy’s fault. So yeah, maybe it is a high horse.

    Does anyone have an id on those sunglasses?? I want them.

  2. Ariel says:

    The striped dress she has on in the bottom picture is great.
    I enjoyed the Tarantino movie, but i would like to see less of Brad in pop culture.
    The attacking of the ex once control is lost is a little too depp for me.

  3. Germanski says:

    Regarding that he is fooling around now with another mans wife (Nicoles husband in Berlin; the owner of the Borchardt restaurant) who has got a child with her, but whatever he is Brad dumbass Pitt. I hope Nicole gets her shit together and leaves this old Ass.

  4. crogirl says:

    LOL I like that you are using fantastic photos of Jolie, even more so to emphasise that “what’s her lips” could never come close. Petty but true

  5. Marigold says:

    I used to like Brad Pitt. Now he seems so nasty and arrogant.

    • CL says:

      He really does. And idiotic, too! His beloved image would be so much better if he’d quit trying to slam her publicly.

    • minx says:

      I only liked him when he got together with AJ, I thought it showed he had great taste. Loved them as a couple. Now he’s back to being a sh*thead.

    • Sharnee says:

      She needs friends… good friends would have told her to settle this ages ago, instead of dragging it the way she has.

      Feels likes she’s trying to hold on to him any way she can, in my humble opinion. Get joint custody, and everyone keep their own money. Isn’t that what rich people usually do?

      • crogirl says:

        @SHARNEE
        No, he’s the one who needs real friends.

        She is fine, and she definitely should not settle and allow her children to be abused.

      • ennie says:

        I though he was the one stalling it, only that her lawyers at first were acting in a shady way along with TMZ. Once she changed lawyers, the TMZ leaks stopped, and also she was the one to file for bifurcation of their marital status.
        They are single, but are working on all the parenting aspects, I understand that almost everything property related was finalized.
        I think all their children will be able to tell who they prefer to be with by the time these proceedings are over, tho. I really think that he could have done better for his children, but he is too much of a jet setter to do so. She was blamed for wanting to travel all the time instead of staying put for the children (double eye roll), it was actually BOTH of them who were “pata de perro” (were globetrotters).
        The proof is, he is traveling here and there and she has stayed in LA, and still has a long way to win over his family, to arrange opportunities for his parents to be with his kids, etc.

      • Myra says:

        I think the situation here is different because the kids do not feel comfortable with dad. I believe this is why the judge felt that it was necessary to tell them that they are safe now. In these circumstances, it is not easy to just say 50-50, you really have to consider the health of everyone. Over the years that Brad worked, Angelina reduced her workload and she seemed to be with the kids more than he was (*they were practically in different countries for some of his shoots*). It’s really not easy to say everyone keeps their money, if he earned substantially more than her while she raised his kids and took care of the household.

  6. Sierra says:

    Angelina is being way to nice on Brad in my opinion.

    I would have destroyed him in public years ago but then again, Angelina is a much better human being than I am.

    • Myra says:

      Right? She has never spoken about what happened on the plane that day. I am yet to hear her directly reference him in an interview. I mean, the minute the smear campaign was launched, I would have gone all scorched earth.

    • lucy2 says:

      I said the same thing in the other AJ post – she could have totally destroyed him and spilled ALL the dirt, and she didn’t. She’s hinted at some stuff, but never told details, and I’m sure she has a LOT to tell. The plane thing was likely the final straw.
      He should be thankful, not vindictive.

  7. melrose says:

    I love her in that dress and those sunglasses.

  8. whatWHAT? says:

    Brad: she’s gone way too far this time!

    but did he run crying from the room?

    sigh…I miss those days.

    • Fa says:

      He runs to Miraval this time.

    • GreenTurtle says:

      Yes, he ran crying from the room to call Jen, who comforted him. Meanwhile, Angie cackled, drank the blood of virgins, and did more of her disingenuous charity work that she does solely for PR and not because she’s a humanitarian, even though she’s been doing it for literally decades.

  9. Kinsley says:

    And his fans really thought that Brad was better than Leo and he was not going to date a much younger woman!! 😂 They were so sure that Brad was above all of this and look… He was NOT!! And Brad is much worse than Leo, because at least Leo, don’t have children’s he is hurting with his PR antics!! Even Ben Affleck is a better father than Brad!! Yeah, Brad is the worse!! 😐

  10. Pix says:

    What a terrible time for his to go public with dating a model almost half his age. The optics are terrible. He seems to “missing a sensitivity chip”.

  11. Deanne says:

    Despite Brad’s rabid fans denials, I think that what happened on that plane could actually ruin him. His behaviour during this divorce has been pathetic. He and his team and all of the crap that they’ve tried to sling at AJ has shown his desperation to cling to his nice guy image. She’s put the children first by leaving him and by keeping silent as to why. He needs to grow the hell up.

  12. Truth hurts says:

    Don’t forget the sleaziness of all his lawyers on every lawsuits. His pathetic shade at her during his Oscar run. Him using Aniston for his petty antics. I say he is a depressive mania at this point and Angie clearly gets under his skin for whatever reasons . Bet he is somewhere ranting a his lawyers or PR people after she came out with all those kids yesterday and people calling him a cradle robber! Lol
    These two fighting for 4 years and publicly throwing shade is a trip tho.

  13. Hmmm says:

    What a waste of time the publicity stunt dating story was. The daily mail is reporting she’s married and in an open relationship- her husband let’s her sleep around. Obviously using Pitt for some fame. LoL

    I’m sorry this is too funny and might be funnier than the Neri Oxman debacle.

    Team Pitt already calling her his girlfriend lol

    PATHETIC. 😂😂

    • Sierra says:

      Hahahahaha I am literally laughing so hard here.

      Brad being an alcoholic abuser, vindictive pervert or evil man smearing his ex wife and children didn’t make him lose his golden boy image, a dirty affair with a married with child 27 year old has done the trick.

      • SaraR. says:

        Brad Pitt is a white, male movie star. He is Teflon. He’ll be fine, his image in tact. It might even add to his allure… No worries. His people will spin that into the most incredible love story: she saved him after four years of suffering from evil Angelina. And, she is pretty, so…No problem whatsoever.

      • Genessee says:

        Are you kidding? She’s still a 20-something hot chick.

        I agree with @SaraR. This just upped his standing in Hollywood.

      • Originalcarol says:

        He will set a trend in HW for sure. Open marriages among triad friends lol. Really fashionable for rich famous aging movie stars/directors with young and upcoming beautiful models. Totally can see it.

      • bluebell_ says:

        This is just sleazy as hell. They disgust me, the old man, Brad and the instawhatsherlips.

    • Germanski says:

      Yep, how can a grown up beautiful woman leave her well-situated husband and life in Berlin to be a bedtime candy for a 50 something movie star?? Is she going to divorce her husband now because of this? And she met Brad at her husbands place, this is just tacky.

      • Genessee says:

        Impotence? Hot sex? Isn’t her husband in his late 60s? LOL

      • Hmm says:

        Gen , you think pitt with all the drug abuse is any better and he’s not that much younger. LoL

        There’s a reason she was up watching Alia shawkat fans stories and liking comments on Instagram. LoL

        We are talking about two old ass men. It would be different if it was 98 and brad was at his best. he is obviously not or he wouldn’t be in this situation. LoL

    • MJM says:

      Ha ha! Neri Oxman 2.0. Loser. 😆

  14. Mina_Esq says:

    I’ve always wondered whether Brad had said something along the lines of “you’re not even my real kid” to Maddox on that airplane. The bio kids visit him more than the adopted kids, but maybe that’s just due to age. It strikes me as the type of attack that would traumatized all the kids, have a lasting impact on the relationships, and be a red line for Angelina.

    • MJM says:

      Seeing your Dad in an alcoholic rage is terrifying. I think he got violent.

      • Originalcarol says:

        Oh he got violent for sure and that’s why their oldest son had to step in. And he put his hands on the kid. Nah, that’s the last straw for Jolie and rightly so. And yet she’s raked for not standing by her man during his terrible times. Who is to stand up for the traumatized children, not him for sure. Karma will get him sooner or later. Maybe COVID will.

    • Genessee says:

      @Mina_Esq Yeah, I think this was it.

  15. Hope says:

    He is racist. Thats why he match alia.too bad she said the N word publicity. So she cancelled.

    • OriginalCarol says:

      Can you imagine the frustration she must feel after months of giving him all the freebies and then she got cancelled cause she’s not good enough to help with the rehabilitation of a tarnished imagine. This new one will get cancelled too once she is done doing her job in providing a good distraction for his legal problems with the cheating judge. He cares too much what people think of him and what they think about his girlfriends. He won’t keep her long. Pitt probably will give her a check at the end of next week. He is a user and a psycho.

  16. Jelly says:

    You mean Brad has to get off of his 27 y o girl friend…
