- Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have reportedly relied on "a lot of family therapy" in recent years to get to a comfortable place within their co-parenting.
- Pitt was recently seen leaving Jolie's Los Angeles home—one of the first public sightings of the actor on his former wife's property since their 2016 split.
- "It's taken them a long time, with a lot of family therapy, to get to this point," a source told People.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are in a better place as co-parents of their six children—thanks to "a lot of family therapy" reported People.
Last month, Pitt was seen leaving his ex-wife's Los Angeles mansion via motorcycle, making it one of the first public sightings of the actor on Jolie's property since the former pair's 2016 split. According to Entertainment Tonight, Pitt and Jolie "chose to live close to one another so they could easily go back and forth with the kids. [That] wasn't the first time Brad and Angelina have spent time together at her home," a source told ET, alluding to a much more amicable relationship between the two Hollywood stars.
Following the announcement of their plans to divorce, which both actors have spoken about from time to time, the two engaged in a highly publicized custody battle over their children.
"They definitely needed help figuring out all the child-custody issues and how Brad could be a dad again," a source told People. "Since the kids are older now, they are no longer dealing with separation issues from Angie."
The source added that the family is finally at a point where there's less tension between Pitt and Jolie, and their kids easily and happily spend time with each of their parents.
"It's taken them a long time, with a lot of family therapy, to get to this point," the source said. "The younger kids go back and forth between their houses, and Brad loves spending as much time with them as possible. He seems much happier."
