Angelina Jolie has revealed that she fears for her safety and that of her children during her marriage to Brad Pitt.
In a new interview with The Guardian, the new Marvel star opened up about her fear for her children’s rights amid her custody battle over her ex-husband.
“I am still in my own legal situation,” she said stammering. “I can’t talk about it.”
When asked directly if she feared for the safety of her children when she was married to Pitt, she replied, “Yes, for my family. All of my family.”
She later added: “I’m not the type of person who makes decisions like decisions that I should take lightly. It took a long time for me to be in a position where I felt I had to take myself. separate from the father of my children. “
Jolie expressed disbelief that the United States was the only country not fully ratifying the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. This had an impact on his custody record, as their son Maddox was “denied a voice in court.” You will recall Jolie filed a court document accusing Pitt of previously assaulting Maddox during a robbery.
According to OK Magazine, on August 31, Pitt filed a motion to challenge an earlier ruling that barred Judge John W. Ouderkirk from presiding over their custody case. Originally, Ouderkirk granted Pitt joint custody of their children (the couple share Maddox, 20, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 15, and 13-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.)
He was later disqualified after a California appeals judge ruled he had not disclosed his previous business relationship with Pitt’s legal team. The judge also married the couple in 2014.
