After a brutal legal battle that happened in 2016, now things are heading towards a positive path for exes Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
The pair have found a way out with a pending court date looming with regards to the custody of their six children, according to media reports.
Jolie’s attorney Samantha Bley Dejean said the details of which remain confidential “to protect the best interest of their kids”.
Jolie has backed out of her earlier petition seeking sole physical custody of the children a middle ground between the two parties was recently agreed.
The agreement left Jolie “relieved with the progress for the health of the family,” shared an insider privy to the matter.
Pitt, on the other hand, did not approve of the agreement.
“While some progress has been made, this isn’t an ideal situation for Brad,” a second source told us at the time.
“There’s an arrangement in place but it’s not a permanent agreement, and there’s a long road ahead.”
As a result, Pitt is expected to spend more time with his kids.
“Brad is hoping the worst is behind them and that they can move on from the fighting and painful past. He knows in the long run the kids are best with both their mom and dad in the picture,” said a third source.
“He can now move forward and try be a stable and constant positive influence in their lives.”
Recently their adopted son Maddox Jolie-Pitt enrolled in a Korean university to pursue his studies.
The 18-year-old is studying biochemistry and he was dropped of by his mother for his first year earlier this summer.
His father was absent.
Maddox said he didn’t know “what’s happening,” when asked if Pitt will visit him at his university.
The father and son have a tense relationship after an alleged argument on a private jet in 2015 that resulted in a physical altercation.
According to TMZ, the fight was “verbally abusive and physical” and a source told US Weekly that Pitt, revealed that he was battling alcoholism and was “drunk” at the time.
