Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie are doing 'a lot of family therapy' to mend their co-parenting relationship: report
The couple filed for divorce in 2016
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have turned to family therapy years after their split in 2016 and subsequent child custody battle.
The former couple share six children together: Maddox, 18, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, Knox, 12, and Vivienne, 12.
"They definitely needed help figuring out all the child-custody issues and how Brad could be a dad again," a source recently told People. "Since the kids are older now, they are no longer dealing with separation issues from Angie."
