Say what?!

Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt and the trigger was a conflict over the kids... TMZ has learned.

Jolie filed legal docs Monday citing irreconcilable differences.

She's asking for physical custody of the couple's 6 children. She is asking the judge to give Pitt visitation. It's significant ...she does not want Brad to have joint physical custody ... only joint legal custody.

Sources connected with the couple tell us ... Angelina's decision to file has to do with the way Brad was parenting the children ... she was extremely upset with his methods.

Jolie, who's being repped by disso queen Laura Wasser, is not asking for spousal support.

Jolie lists the date of separation as Sept. 15, 2016.

They married in August, 2014. They've been together since 2004.

TMZ is usually pretty accurate so I'm inclined to think this is true. ?

? I thought they'd be together forever

Sad. They have built quite a large family together. I hope for the best for them.

I liked him better with Jen anyways ?

Is he abusing the kids or what?!?! Maybe I don't get it but the reason seems strange.

I think him and Jennifer made such a cute couple ?

I loved them together. They were beautiful couple that truly loved one another.

Until the other girl came into the picture ?

I'm not shocked. I can't put faith in marriage where the two people "fell in love" while one was married to someone else.

Shut the front door!!

Say it ain't so.

Not really surprised. Though I do want to know what parenting style he was using that warrants divorce.

I think she got bored of him..

I can imagine they might have different parenting styles. Who knows. But what could have happened that was so bad with ones parenting style that you'd leave him and not want him to have any physical custody. ?

I feel sad for them though. Everyone was really rooting for them.

Pretty sure I'm the only person who really doesn't give a hoot about these 2 ?

Nope, I don't give a rats arse either!!

Those poor kids. I imagine they have had little to no stability.

She hired a PI to snoop, he's been messing around with his costar for months. Karma's a batch.

I just read he's been sleeping with actress Marion Cotillard as they are filming their new movie. Who knows...?
