THE KIDS ARE SPENDING THE SUMMER WITH BRAD
Angelina has called her kids her “best friends” — but she’s had to spend more time apart from Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Viv than ever. A Los Angeles Superior Court judge granted ex Brad large blocks of time with their brood this summer, including days in London (where Angie’s filming), an eight-day stay in LA in late July plus a three-day block leading up to the next hearing in their custody battle on Aug. 13, public records recently revealed. The move came after the court determined that it was “harmful” for the children to “not hav[e] a relationship with their father” and “critical that each of them have a healthy and strong relationship” with both Mom and Dad. And the blame for the family’s current state was put squarely on Angelina: She was scolded and ordered to allow the kids unrestricted phone and text access to Brad without monitoring or interference. A rep for Angelina branded the information “an inaccurate and unfair picture of what is really happening.”
