13-01-2025 15:00
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are now officially divorced.
Jolie’s lawyer says that the actors sign the deal. We do not know any details of the deal. Jolie and Pitt are married for two years but split up in 2016. Jolie wants full custody of their six kids. This leads to a long fight. Police check Pitt for child abuse but find nothing. Later, the two agree to share custody.
Before Jolie, Pitt’s wife is actress Jennifer Aniston. Jolie is married twice before. They meet while making the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Some people think they have an affair, but Jolie says they are just friends. Later, they are together.
Difficult words: custody (taking care of children), child abuse (behaving badly towards children), affair (romantic relationship).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
