After a lengthy², public custody³ battle following their shocking breakup nearly four years ago, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are in a better place.

近四年前，布拉德·皮特和安吉丽娜·朱莉的分手震惊了所有人，经历了一场漫长的公共监护权之争后，他们现在的状态有所好转。

“They definitely needed help figuring out all the child-custody issues and how Brad could be a dad again,” a source says of the A-list exes

“他们确实需要帮助来解决所有的孩子监护权问题，以及布拉德如何才能再次当上爸爸，”知情人说到这对一流前夫妇，

“It’s taken them a long time,with a lot of family therapy,to get to this point,” says the source.
