Report: Angelina Jolie files for divorce from Brad Pitt

WASHINGTON — Hollywood’s biggest power couple appears to be finished.

A lawyer tells the Associated Press that Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt.

Jolie reportedly filed legal documents on Monday citing irreconcilable differences.

She is reportedly asking for custody of their six children but is requesting visitation rights for Pitt.

The couple began dating in 2004, after Pitt ended his high-profile romance with Jennifer Aniston, creating a new Hollywood power couple known in the press as “Brangelina.”

They were married in August of 2014, instantly becoming Hollywood royalty.

Jolie reportedly lists their date of separation as Sept. 15, 2016.
