Son ‘will quit Brad & Ange’

BRAD Pitt and Angelina Jolie are heading for a court showdown on December 4 – the deadline imposed by a divorce judge for them to reach a deal over custody of their six children.

But the Hollywood couple have been rocked by eldest adopted son Maddox who says he is ready to leave them both to attend college in Seoul, South Korea.

The 17-year-old, who was born in Cambodia, has been learning Korean and hit on the idea of becoming a student there after touring the country with his mum this year.

A family friend said: “Mad is a gifted teenager and both Brad and Angelina are anxious for him to follow an academic path.

“But they’re devastated by his decision to move so far away.

“It means that neither of them will see him anywhere near as much as they want.

“If anything it has only added to the tension between them.”

Their other kids are Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 12, and 10-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
