Angelina Jolie Has Blocked Brad Pitt’s Phone Number Following Divorce
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been the hottest topic in the news over the past week, following their very public divorce. Many different rumors have come out as to why Jolie filed for her divorce from Pitt, but at this point in time it sounds like the most likely cause was Pitt’s anger issue couple with drug and alcohol use.
It hasn’t taken long for Jolie to completely cut ties with Pitt following their divorce. According to a report from Us Weekly, Jolie has blocked Pitt’s numbers and has cut off communication with him.
“Angelina has blocked all incoming text messages and also Brad’s numbers.”
Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt on September 19, and news has not stopped focusing on the reasoning behind the sudden move. We previously mentioned here at the Inquisitr that Pitt was allegedly caught on video yelling at Jolie and their children on a plane earlier in the week. Whether that report is true or not hasn’t been confirmed.

Pitt, 52, has reportedly been begging Jolie to see his children following the divorce filing. She has requested full custody of all six children.
Obviously, the well-being of the children has to be at the forefront of both Jolie and Pitt’s concerns. They have six kids together, Maddox, 15; Pax, 12; Zahara, 11; Shiloh, 10; and twins Vivienne and Knox, 8. All six of the children need to be the primary concern at this point, as divorces tend to have bad repercussions on children.
Prior to Jolie filing for divorce, it seems that the power couple was planning to adopt their seventh child.

Pitt was blindsided by Jolie’s sudden filing for divorce. He has reportedly been upset and beside himself emotionally.
“He is beside himself and has been crying. He was completely caught off-guard and blindsided and had no idea she would do this. Angelina filed the court papers a minute before the courts closed on Monday night. He didn’t have a lawyer or anything. She had threatened divorce in the past but he did not think she would file this time.”
Needless to say, this news took the entire world by surprise. Pitt and Jolie have been mentioned in divorce rumors for months, but it didn’t seem likely that the two would actually split so soon. They have been married for just two years and every time a divorce rumor came out it seemed to get shot down.
Immediately following the news of Jolie filing for divorce, many of the signs pointed to Pitt having an affair. Many believed that he had been cheating on Jolie with his Allied co-star Marion Cotillard. Cotillard has vehemently denied the accusations and her partner, Guillaume Canet, lashed out at the media for creating the false rumors.
No matter what the cause for the divorce actually is, this has been a very sad week in the entertainment world.

There have been reports that Pitt is being investigated for child abuse, although a source close to Pitt said that “the abuse suggestions are inaccurate.”
“Teenagers have fights with their parents, especially when you have teens who are strong-willed and confident,” the source mentioned. “You’re going to have back and forth.”
All of that being said, there doesn’t seem to be any reconciliation coming in the near future for Pitt and Jolie. Pitt’s close friend, George Clooney, was hopeful that the two could salvage their marriage, but that doesn’t seem very likely.
At this point in time, the next step will be the battle for custody of the children and sorting out property and finances due to the divorce. Hopefully, the couple will be able to resolve things relatively peacefully.
