    Following the news that Angelina Jolie Pitt and Brad Pitt are getting a divorce, Brad has issued a statement via People:

    "I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the wellbeing of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time."

    The statement follows Angelina's own, via her lawyer, and echoes her own sentiments: "This decision was made for the health of the family. She will not be commenting, and asks that the family be given its privacy at this time," attorney Robert Offer said.
