According to Closer Online, Brad made the decision to spend more time in the company of Angelina for the sake of his children.
This has reportedly got in the way with Brad and Jennifer’s friendship, as the former couple were said to be getting closer again.
A sourced told the publication: “Jen feels as though she and Brad were really getting somewhere and now their friendship might be put on the back burner as he turns his focus to Ange and the kids.”
