Angeline Jolie cut a low-key figure as she stepped out with her beloved daughter Vivienne, after it was revealed she and ex-husband Brad Pitt are ‘legally single’.
The 43-year-old Maleficent star opted for a simple ensemble comprising of a camel coloured crew-neck jumper paired with flood length black trousers, while her stylish daughter, 10, was clad in funky denim dungarees.
Emerging at a Los Angeles mall, the mum and daughter looked chilled out just a fortnight after a judge issued a bifurcated judgment, which means the actress and Moneyball star, 55, are legally single.

Angelina looked typically stylish in her elegant ensemble as she headed out in the black cigarette pants with velvet slip-on shoes with a bow detail.
She kept out any chill with a light black coat while clutching a no-doubt designer handbag and rocking a pair of over-sized black sunglasses.
Her brunette tresses were worn in loose straight lengths while she showed off her make-up free complexion from under her specs.
Vivienne proved she has inherited her mum’s stylish streak as she rocked the retro-inspired ensemble with a pair of lace-free plimsolls.

Angelina and Brad continue to hash out the details of their divorce, which Angelina filed for in September of 2016 – much to the surprise of fans.
Jolie’s lawyer Samantha Bley DeJean told Entertainment Tonight that ‘a custody arrangement was agreed to weeks ago, and has been signed by both parties.
‘The agreement, which is based on the recommendations of the child custody evaluator, eliminates the need for a trial. The filing and details of the agreement are confidential to protect the best interests of the children.’
Pitt and Jolie share six children: Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 12 and 10-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

Jolie was ‘pleased to be entering the next stage and relieved at the progress for the health of their family,’ a source told the outlet.
In related news, Jolie has dropped Pitt from her last name, according to court docs, The Blast reported. Their kids will continue to use the hyphenated name Jolie-Pitt.
The latest development came amid a report earlier this month from The Sun that Jolie was hoping to rekindle the romance – which began in the mid-2000s during Pitt’s marriage to Jennifer Aniston – and dragging out the divorce in hopes of buying time.
‘Angelina has made it clear to Brad that she wants to be back in a relationship with him,’ a source told the outlet. ‘She would like them to be a family again and doesn’t seem capable of moving on. That’s why she is making it so difficult for Brad with every detail of their divorce.’

The source said that Pitt ‘has consistently kept his mouth shut because all he cares about is his kids’ and ‘just wants it all settled,’ but Jolie ‘won’t let go.
‘Angelina is making it horrendous for him and drawing out the process, but it’s not going to make him consider going back,’ the insider said, adding that ‘this could have been over a year ago’ without Jolie’s stalling.
A source speaking to Entertainment Tonight said that the pair ‘have come a long way’ as ‘their communication has improved tremendously and they’re both dedicated to co-parenting.

‘Their kids have a custody schedule and that’s made a huge difference for the whole family. The schedule has alleviated any of the planning pressures Brad and Angelina have faced in the past. Now the kids spend time with both their parents and are happy and thriving.’
The former couple in January were seen on two occasions meeting over the divorce at a Beverly Hills lawyer’s office.
Previously, Pitt was married to Aniston from 2000 to 2005, while Jolie was wed to Johnny Lee Miller from 1996 to 1999, and to Billy Bob Thornton from 2000 to 2003.
