Brad Pitt Birthday: Did Actor Get To See His Kids When He Turned 53? [VIDEO]
Brad Pitt seemed to make the most of it by celebrating his birthday with some friends, but unfortunately, there are six people the actor had hoped to spend the day with that he didn't get to see-his children with Angelina Jolie.
According to Hollywood Life, the actor was not able to see Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne on his 53rd birthday over the weekend, though he did try to make the most of his situation by celebrating in a low-key venue with some old friends.
"Brad spent his birthday enjoying a mellow dinner in with a few close, old friends," a source told the website. "Brad has been working hard on maintaining a low-profile and his plan is to stay out of the spotlight until his divorce and custody issues are finalized. He was not interested in celebrating his birthday out at any hot restaurants. Brad will not be doing anything that will interfere with his custody battle and does not want it to look like he is busy dating or partying. His primary focus right now is working on himself and working on rebuilding his relationship with his kids."
Pitt was also unable to see his children on Thanksgiving, and is allegedly only allowed to see them on Christmas for just a few hours, according to a report in OK! Magazine.
"She doesn't have the heart to refuse to let him see the children over the holidays and they would probably never forgive her if she did," a source said. "But Brad is going to have to use every ounce of his acting skill when he arrives with their presents and put on a brave face to mask the torment he's going through over spending so little time with them."
As of now, the couple's custody arrangement has Pitt only able to see the kids when a therapist gives permission.
