According to a report by The New York Post, Angelina Jolie, still has faces trouble letting go her ex-husband despite her previous reputation of walking away from relationships and not looking back.
An acquaintance explained the tactics being used by Jolie to prolong the entire divorce process: “The longer she does this, the more damage she does to the kids. This is a game she’s playing. She still has the kids for more of the time than he does and she’s trying to maintain that as long as possible.”
Other sources close to the family were also quoted by The Post saying the Maleficent actor seems to still be having ‘love-hate’ feelings for her ex-husband.
“On some level she doesn’t want this [the divorce] to end. She is trying to hold on,” said one insider.
The report also claimed that the maneuvering done by Jolie has been escalating a good image of Pitt as she takes the burden of being negative one in the equation.
“Brad does spend time with the kids but there are still limits and that’s the frustrating part. In California, custody is [typically] 50-50. But in reality, Brad doesn’t have 50 percent custody,” said a source.
Another insider, who worked with the two when they were together, also reiterated that Jolie is tarnishing her own repute by making Pitt look like the victim: “I’m not saying she’s perfect, or the sanest person around. But he wore the pants in that relationship. He’s much tougher than he lets on. That boyish, good guy image is just an image.”
