After eight years as editor of Woman’s Day, I’m used to a certain level of phone-buzzing in the middle of the night. But at dawn on Wednesday morning last week my mobile was jumping off the bedside table as news of Brad and Ange’s shock divorce filtered through. “Oh my goodness,” was all my colleague Claire had to say. “Poor Brad,” came the next text. Fast-forward just 48 hours, and as I write this letter and send the final pages of this issue to print, none of us could’ve imagined the horrifying details behind the end of Brangelina – a relationship millions of fans around the world believed to be one of Hollywood’s most enduring love stories. Exactly what happened during what was clearly a flight from hell for the…
What made Brad snap? How on earth did Hollywood’s most celebrated romance end so suddenly and viciously last week, leaving the famous couple in tatters and six children facing heartbreak? Brad is seeking help for his problems as police launch an investigation into allegations he got “verbally abusive and physical with his children” after getting “wasted” on a private jet. Within hours of Angelina Jolie filing for divorce and full custody of her and Brad’s children, the finger was firmly pointed towards the star who has been repeatedly voted the world’s sexiest man alive, with shocking allegations of cheating, substance abuse, consorting with prostitutes, and even a claim he had an affair with his married Allied co-star Marion Cotillard, who has confirmed she is pregnant. But the most shocking revelation…
Divorce is never easy on kids, but with the shocking allegations about Brad’s outburst on the plane, friends worry the pair’s kids will struggle with the speculation surrounding them. Friends of the Jolie-Pitts say each of their children will react differently as they come to realise their family will never be the same again. MADDOX, 15 As Ange s , s likely Maddox is more in tune with the truths behind their split than his siblings. The Cambodian-born teen, who Ange adopted in 2002 when he was just seven months old – Brad signed joint papers in 2006 – has always offered a shoulder for Ange to cry on. “It’s like he’s raised me a bit,” Ange once said of Maddox, adding that he can always tell when something is…
With moving trucks spotted outside the couple’s LA mansion just one day after Ange filed for divorce, it’s clear she and Brad will be having little to do with each other as they prepare their respective cases. While police are allegedly investigating Brad’s behaviour, both stars have lawyers working around the clock. While the couple’s $530 million fortune will need to be divided up, the primary concern for both parties will be the custody battle. According to Californian law, Brad has 30 days to file a response to Ange’s petition, but there’s good odds his team will contact her lawyers and ask for an extension, to take the matter out of the limelight. “Courthouses in California are public, so unless they proceed privately, every detail will be part of the…
Within minutes of Brad and Angelina’s split being made public, fans of Brad’s first wife Jennifer Aniston were quick to claim retribution for the actress, taking to social media to post smug memes and images of the star apparently celebrating her “victory”. While sources say Jen, 47, who married actor Justin Theroux, 45, last year, reacted to the news by calling it “karma”, Woman’s Day has learned the former Friends star has decided to uphold a dignified silence. “Jen would only want the best for Brad and his family,” a source tells Woman’s Day. “She knows everyone is going to be desperate for her reaction, but she would never gloat. She wouldn’t do anything that would hurt Brad’s kids at this time.” Although Brad denies ever having cheated on Jen,…
