Cutthroat Fights & Abuse Claims! Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie's Custody Battle Explodes
Aug. 23 2017, Published 10:30 a.m. ET
Brad Pitt’s bitter custody battle with Angelina Jolie has ramped up to a whole new level of ugly — over fresh child abuse charges! Disturbing photos exclusively obtained by RadarOnline.com reveal frightening new images of one of the couple’s six kids sporting a vicious head wound which show the estranged couple's children may be at risk. Click through to see the troubling images.
The images clearly showed Vivienne Jolie-Pitt with a massive bandage covering a gash on her forehead on Aug. 10. The nine-year-old has been in her mother’s care, and was on an outing with Angelina to a Los Angeles–area pet store.
“Brad was livid when he saw these photos,” spilled a source close to Pitt, 53. “He’s convinced the kids aren’t being taken care of properly by Angie!”
The alarming incident is just the latest skirmish between the A-list couple, who have been at each other’s throats since their surprise split in September 2016. At the time, a vindictive Angie hurled allegations of child abuse against Brad that were later rejected by both the Los Angeles County Department of Children & Family Services and the FBI. “Angie was determined that she would destroy Brad by branding him as an abusive father, but that strategy completely blew up in her face,” the informant snitched.
“She battered Brad’s reputation as a dad, and now that he sees his kids may actually be at risk in her care, he’s ready to fight back with a vengeance!” Vivienne’s accident occurred while the youngster was in the care of Angie’s ever-present, strapping bodyguard, insiders told RadarOnline.com. “Brad’s attitude is: ‘They call them bodyguards for a reason,’” a source sniffed. “Clearly, they aren’t doing their job right.”

Adding to Pitt's anger, this was the second time Vivienne has been injured while being looked after by one of Angie’s “mannys.” Last April, RadarOnline.com exclusively revealed these shocking images that showed Vivienne being similarly battered when she was dropped over a spiked fence in London’s Hyde Park!
In yet another disturbing photo, a clueless bodyguard is seen peddling a rental bike while Vivienne’s twin brother, Knox, leans on the handlebars with a label clearly warning it’s not safe for children!
In both cases, “supermom” Angie was thousands of miles away on a speaking engagement for the United Nations! In fact, insiders told RadarOnline.com Brad believes Angie’s ceaseless globe-trotting on her humanitarian missions has put their children — Maddox, 16, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Knox and Vivienne — at risk!
Pitt is also livid she’s been dragging the kids to far-off destinations, making visitation extremely difficult. As readers know, Jolie, 42, has frequently traveled to England where she’s shopping for another home — far from Brad and Los Angeles. “Brad offered to leave his Los Feliz home near L.A., but Angie continues to uproot the kids instead,” a source snitched.
She even fled the country with the kids on Father’s Day! “Brad was devastated,” a source revealed. "Angie allowed him to spend just two hours with the kids the day before.”
Now, according to insiders, it’s payback time. “Brad’s going to use this situation with Vivienne as ammo,” the source dished. “Angie better be ready for the counterattack!” We pay for juicy info!
