Angelina Jolie has recently been accused of sheltering her children from her ex Brad Pitt’s side of the family.
Following Brad Pitt‘s recent comments concerning their children’s relationship with his family, Angelina Jolie is attempting to clarify the situation.
In response to claims that her six children haven’t spent “extensive time” with Pitt’s parents since the couple divorced in 2016, a source close to Jolie told People magazine that the actress hasn’t been an obstacle.
“Angelina has not blocked any communications or relationships; rather she encourages them to be in touch with their grandparents,” according to a source.
“The kids send cards and gifts to their grandparents every year for their birthdays and Christmas,” they informed me.
The statement comes after a Daily Mail report accusing Jolie of keeping the children away from their grandparents. A source close to Pitt claimed that his parents “have not been able to see their beloved grandchildren for around eight years.”
“Prior to the separation, they were involved in the children’s lives and spent a lot of time together. It’s devastating to think that this is no longer the case; they’re in their 80s, and the thought of never being able to spend time with their children again is simply unfathomable,” according to a Pitt source.
The 60-year-old actor has six children with Jolie: Maddox (23), Pax (20), Zahara (19), Shiloh (18), and twins Knox and Vivienne (16). The former couple has been involved in a lengthy legal struggle over funds and custody arrangements.
