Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie take 'massive step' in post-divorce relationship as she offers ex chance to spend summer with their kids
It looks like tensions might be easing between exes Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood actor, 55, will be spending summer with his six offspring while his actress/activist ex films in New Mexico, according to a source who spoke to The Sun.
Though the pair's split has been contentious, Jolie is actually said to have reached out to Pitt and offer him the chance to take care of the kids, in what is a 'massive step' for the former couple and their offspring.

'Angelina is going to be spending a lot of the summer filming Those Who Wish Me Dead, so she reached out to Brad and offered him the chance to look after the children,' the insider divulged.
Together the couple share six children Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 10
The arrangement seems to be a turning point for the couple, who have famously been at odds since parting ways in 2017.
'This is a massive step for them and the children, who have only had limited time with Brad since the break-up.'

And Brad couldn't be more thrilled.
'It feels like a really positive move all round and Brad is over the moon.'
Not only will the kids get time with their dad, but they'll also get to be with their grandparentts.'
'[Brad's] invited his parents, Jane and William, to stay with them at his mansion in LA so they can have some proper family time together.'

The couple's summer arrangement comes after Brad reportedly gave Angelina an ultimatum to sign divorce papers, accusing her of dragging her feet in order to prolong the whole process.
The actor allegedly encouraged his lawyers to ask the judge to finalise a deadline for Angelina to sign the papers, and put in place a hefty fine if she fails to do so.
In April, it was reported that Judge John Ouderkirk extended Brad and Angelina's court case until December 31, 2019.
