Brad Pitt not paying 'meaningful' child support, says Angelina Jolie in court documents

A source close to Pitt, however, said that he "has fulfilled his commitments", according to The Los Angeles Times.

Entertainment News: Actor Angelina Jolie has claimed that former husband Brad Pitt is not paying enough child support for their six children.

In the court documents filed by Jolie, the actor claimed that Pitt has not paid any "meaningful" child support for their six children -- Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne -- in a year and a half and has asked the court to make him pay.

"(Pitt) has a statutory duty to pay child support. As of present, [Pitt] has paid no meaningful child support since separation," Jolie's attorney, Samantha Bley DeJean, writes in the legal documents.

"Given that the informal arrangements around the payment of the children's expenses have not been regularly sustained by (Pitt) for over a year and a half, (Jolie) intends to file an RFO (request for a court order) for the establishment of a retroactive child support order," the documents state.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt file for divorce

Actor Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from actor Brad Pitt, her attorney said in a statement on Tuesday, signalling the end of one of Hollywood's most glamorous and powerful couples.

Entertainment website TMZ, citing a legal filing, said Jolie "was extremely upset" with Pitt's parenting methods.

Jolie and Pitt, known collectively as "Brangelina," were one of the entertainment world's most visible couples, due to their good looks, successful films and activism. They married in 2014 after 10 years together.
