The couple, dubbed ‘Brangelina’, married in 2014, after more than a decade together and have six children.
It is rumoured that Angelina filed for physical custody of the children, stating that she does not want spousal support.
As cruel as users on the internet can be, the web exploded with memes of Jennifer Aniston, Brad’s first wife who he allegedly left for Angelina.

When George Clooney, Brad’s long-time friend and previous co-star, was informed of the divorce, he looked visibly shocked.
Springsites made their thoughts known on the Springs Advertiser’s WhatsApp line:
Sarie van Niekerk: “That’s bad news. They were a nice couple.”
Yusuf Asmal: “Don’t really care… But what will happen to the little children?”
Sonja du Plooy: “I don’t care. Just feeling sorry for the children. They are going to be broken.”
Lerine Pretorius: “It’s sad, they actually showed most of the ‘long-term’ marriages that it can work, hope they can sort it out.”
Gert Coetzer: “This is sad. I like them both very much as they both are good actors.”
What do you think about the power couple’s split?
