Jolie and Pitt, who got married in August 2014, are ending their marriage after several months of rumors surrounding their fights and the “World War Z” star’s alleged cheating.

In the divorce filing, Jolie is seeking the physical custody of their six children and has asked the court to grant Pitt visitation. She has also asked the court to grant her to keep “miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects” as well as any earnings from after the date of their separation.

“I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids,” Pitt said Tuesday in a statement to People magazine. “I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.”

Jolie also released a statement addressing the divorce. “This decision was made for the health of the family,” the actress’ attorney reportedly said. “She will not be commenting at this time, and asks that the family be given their privacy during this difficult time.”

Over the last few months, rumors surfaced that Jolie and Pitt’s marriage was going through a rough phase. Reports also claimed that the 41-year-old was suffering from some serious health issue as she had a drastic weight loss to about 79 pounds. Jolie’s health crisis was speculated to be an outcome of their troubled marriage.
