What is going on with Brad Pitt?

Brad Pitt might not be getting investigated for child abuse after all. TMZ reported that the actor was being investigated by the L.A.  County Department of Children and Family Services for allegedly verbally abusing his kids. However, the LAPD is reportedly shutting down those rumors.

Us Weekly reveals that the L.A. police are not currently investigating Pitt for any form of child abuse. “LAPD is not handling any report or allegations into child abuse for Mr. Brad Pitt,” the department announced in a statement.

A Public Information Officer went on to say, “We don’t have anything on Brad Pitt right now. We have confirmed with the detectives, and according to our detectives there are no active investigations regarding Brad Pitt.”

Meanwhile, rumors are still running wild that Pitt may have exhibited some sort of inappropriate behavior towards the six children he shares with Angelina Jolie. Angelina’s decision to file for divorce was allegedly made in part because of the actor’s parenting. Speculation of drug and alcohol abuse and anger issues have all been swirling.  However, the rumors have not been confirmed.

Angelina has not spoken out about ending her marriage to Brad. The actress’ rep did release a statement revealing that Jolie’s decision “was made for the health of the family.”
