Angelina Jolie Reportedly Feels 'Betrayed' By Hollywood And 'Livid' That Brad Pitt Is Being 'Portrayed As The Victim' After Split

Brad Pitt, 60, may have moved on with his new girlfriend Ines De Ramon, but it seems like Angelina Jolie is still hurt by their 2016 divorce. According to the latest reports, the 48-year-old Maleficent actress apparently feels “betrayed” by Hollywood – which may be why she told WSJ. Magazine that she wants to leave ASAP! – and is “livid” that her ex-husband is being portrayed as the victim in their divorce.

If you’ll recall, the Oscar-winning actress accused the Ad Astra actor of abuse – with a 2016 in-flight fight between an allegedly drunk Brad and their son Maddox, now 22, constantly being referenced – which is partly what led to her filing for divorce all those years ago.

Angelina Jolie Feels 'Betrayed' By Hollywood

"Angie's livid over being painted the bad guy while Brad is portrayed as a victim," an insider said, according to Ok! magazine. "Even with all the facts, their peers are siding with him. It makes her sick that people in Hollywood can be such hypocrites."

The source went on to confirm what the Eternals actress said in her candid WSJ. Magazine interview at the end of last year, where she also admitted to having no social life, and said: "She doesn't want to be in L.A. and plans to take off for Cambodia as soon as all the kids are of legal age." They added: "Angie has no close ties to Hollywood. She'd rather be at her home in Cambodia, working with refugees."

As there are always two sides to every story, it makes sense that the internet is divided with their thoughts. Many people side with the Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood actor, while others are definitely team Angelina!

Fans Are Divided On Social Media

Commenting on a January 2nd Ok! Instagram post about Angelina feeling betrayed by Hollywood, one person said: "People can't get past Brad the beloved movie star that can do no wrong! I'm definitely siding with Angelina and her kids." Another declared: "I'm on Angelina's side."

"You do realize Brad hit one of the kids so there's that," wrote another IG user, in response to someone who defended the Bullet Train actor. "It's always brad getting away with hurting women and even his own kids. Brad is the problem and women like you who let him," concurred another.

Many others seemed to think that Jolie "is the problem." "Brad Pitt said in an interview that Angie was a nightmare to live with and should have never divorced Jennifer Aniston," wrote one fan, as another said: "No way do I believe that their situation was as bad as she put on. Plus she tried to turn their kids against him. Now that he is seemingly happy she can't stand it." "She needs to stop dragging him, she's a bitter person," said another.

"Brad is sober and doing great, she needs to go away and leave him alone," another wrote, in reference to the Fight Club alum's sobriety. "She is the bad person, turned her own children against their father," wrote another, as someone else agreed, writing: "She's the bad guy." "Angelina looks like a very difficult person to be around or have to deal with for any reason," speculated another.
