Angelina and Brad are fighting over their kids' custody
Angelina filed for divorce and applied for sole custody of children
Brad Pitt's lawyers have contested the claim
"She doesn't have the heart to refuse to let him see the children over the holidays and they would probably never forgive her if she did. But Brad is going to have to use every ounce of his acting skill when he arrives with their presents and put on a brave face to mask the torment he's going through over spending so little time with them," said a source close to the former couple told Daily Star.
Angeline filed for divorce on the grounds of "irreconcilable differences" and is demanding sole physical custody of the kids with visitation rights only for Brad, whose lawyers have filed a counter-claim. As part of the Family Services probe, Brad was ordered to undergo anger management counselling and submit drug tests prior to agreed visits with the children.
"He bit his tongue and suffered through all of that in the hope Angelina would allow him more time with their kids. But he was really choked when he didn't get to spend a single moment with them at Thanksgiving last month. And although he can't wait to see them at Christmas, he's dreading how hard it will be for him to leave them again after four hours," the source told Daily Star.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt met on the sets of 2005 film Mr And Mrs Smith, when Brad was married to actress Jennifer Aniston. Brad and Angelina got married in 2014 after living together for almost a decade. They last co-starred in By the Sea, which was also directed by Angelina.
