Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, TMZ reports.
According to the news outlet, she filed legal documents on Monday morning, requesting legal custody of their six children. She does not want Pitt to have joint custody, according to TMZ.
According to an attorney for Jolie Pitt, Robert Offer, the decision to divorce was made "for the health of the family."
The couple has six children together: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne.
Jolie and Pitt recently co-starred in the film "By the Sea," which opened the AFI Film Festival in 2015. Jolie wrote and directed the film about a couple trying to repair their marriage.
This is the second marriage for Pitt, who previously wed Jennifer Aniston. It's the third for Jolie Pitt, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.
Though together since 2004, the couple wed in August, 2014, in the French hamlet of Correns in Provence with their children serving as ring bearers and throwing flower petals.
In a swift reaction however, sources claim Brad Pitt is now 'furious' at Angelina Jolie for filing for divorce, a move he says could put their kids at risk.
Sources close to Pitt told TMZ that the actor is angry at Jolie for allegedly spinning stories about him being a potential risk to their kids because of anger issues and substance abuse.
Pitt reportedly said Jolie 'unleashed hell' because the entire family has become targets for the paparazzi.
Pitt said he wanted to keep the divorce under wraps for the benefit of their children, but instead, he says, Jolie has painted him as a risky dad and asked for sole physical custody.
TMZ reports the date of separation as September 15.
