Jolie previously asked for sole physical custody of the kids -- ages 8 to 15 -- with visitation rights for Pitt.

"Brad and Angie haven't had any contact, and it's all being worked out via their teams," a family source told the magazine. "It's just a sad situation."

Us Weekly said Jolie first filed for divorce from Pitt on Sept. 19, just days after she and Pitt separated.

The couple split up after more than a decade together reportedly because of a heated confrontation between Pitt and their oldest child Maddox, 15.
