Angelina Jolie accuses Brad Pitt of not paying enough child support as divorce and custody battle rages on
Angelina Jolie has accused Brad Pitt of failing to support their kids financially amid the couple's long-running divorce.
Attorneys for the 43-year-old actress alleged on Tuesday that the 54-year-old actor hasn't paid 'meaningful' child support for 18 months, according to court documents obtained by DailyMail.com.
'As of present, [Pitt] has paid no meaningful child support since separation,' Jolie's attorney, Samantha Bley DeJean wrote.
The actress-turned-director alleged her third husband has not been meeting his financial obligations and has demanded the court force him to pay up.
'Given the informal arrangements around the payment of the children's expenses have not been regularly sustained by [Pitt] for over a year and a half, [Jolie] intends to file an RFO for the establishment of a retroactive child support order,' the filing says.
She has asked the judge to arrange a meeting to discuss the issue.
'Meaningful' support was not defined in the filing and Pitt's team are yet to formally respond.
A Pitt source familiar with the situation hinted to Dailymail that the actor would likely fight the allegations, commenting: 'Brad always fulfills his commitments'.
The documents also demand that the divorce be finalized this year, with Jolie seemingly in a hurry to bring the battle to an end.
Jolie’s net worth has been estimated at $160 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth and in 2014, she was ranked 74th highest-earning celebrity by Forbes. The same site puts Pitt's net worth at $240million.
It's been nearly two years since their shocking split was announced. Jolie filed for divorce in September 2016 citing irreconcilable differences.
