AKIPRESS.COM - One of Hollywood's highest profile marriages is over as Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from husband Brad Pitt, citing irreconcilable differences.
According to the court documents, the pair separated on September 15, two years and one month after they married in August 2014, CNN reports.
Jolie is seeking physical custody of their six children and asking the court to grant Pitt visitation.
She is also asking to keep "miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects" as well as any earnings from after the date of their separation and other separate assets to be determined later.
The pair have also been partners in giving and adopting children. In April 2005, Pitt and Jolie adopted son Maddox in Kenya, later daughter Zahara from Ethiopia, and in May 2006 Jolie gave birth to a baby girl Shiloh. Then, the couple adopted son Pax from Vietnam in March 2007. Jolie gave birth to twins Vivienne and Knox in July 2008.
Pitt has worked for years to help rebuild New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Jolie is a United Nations special envoy for refugee issues, a critical topic at the UN General Assembly meeting in New York this week.
