New reports have just come in highlighting what all has been happening behind the scenes, for the past 10 years following that incident in the airplane where Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are said to have had an altercation.

For those unversed with what happened, its said to have happened in September of 2016, and turned ‘violent’ during the private jet flight from France to Los Angeles, promoting a divorce just days later, petitioned by Jolie herself.

Custody after the fact was a big issue, as was the case involving their shared winery and per redacted FBI documents Pitt is said to have grabbed Jolie by the head, shook her and shover her against a bathroom wall while their children were also watching. A child, unmentioned, is said to have verbally intervened thereafter, causing Pitt to ‘lunge’ at them.

Jolie’s statement then went on to detail how she chocked him from behind to stop him, but Pitt “threw himself back” and caused Jolie to injure her back and elbow, but he didn’t stop there, according to the report. It’s also said he later went on to choke out one of his children, and struck another in the face, not before pouring beer and red wine on them all.

What is pertinent to mention is that all of, is that it’s said to have happened after Pitt had been drinking.

Now ten years on a family insider has told Page Six, “the children, who are now adults who make their own decisions, were not only affected by what happened on that plane 10 years ago, but what has happened since — [Pitt] continuing to cover up and minimize his own behavior.”

“This has had the biggest impact on his relationships with the children. When will people start asking real questions about what happened to the kids? A judge actually looked at the facts. He had a 168-page decision that gave them 50/50 custody that was based on testimony from people who lived with them, dealt with them on a regular basis, therapists and all sorts of people, including the kids themselves and what they had said.”

Before concluding the insider also said, “it was a fair conclusion, it allowed both parents to be in a situation of raising the kids, which is best for the children.”
