The Kids' cry for Help: We want to live with dad!

THE JOLIE-PITT CHILDREN ARE BEGGING BRAD TO RESCUE THEM FROM THE CHAOS AT HOME WITH ANGELINA .

- 

WHILE stocking up on groceries at​ Lassens in LosAngeles on March 14 with daughter Vivienne at her side, Angelina Jolie looked as relaxed and chic as ever, decked out in her weekend-casual look: a flowy white dress under a stylish camel trench coat, accessorized with nude flats, a sleek black bag and glamorous oversize sunglasses. Also on hand? Her trademark megawatt smile — a pretty odd sight, given the current state of affairs.

Amid the panic over the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic, Angelina seemed downright unaffected by the crisis. And as Star can exclusively reveal, her strange behavior has her kids on edge — and desperate to seek shelter at the home of their father, actor Brad Pitt, 56. “They’d love to be spending this lockdown time with him,” says an insider of the couple’s five younger children, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 13, and 11-year- old twins Vivienne and Knox (Maddox, 18, has been attending Yonsei University in South Korea). “At the moment, they find their dad to be a really calming influence.”

But convincing Angelina, 44, to let them go is another matter. “Brad’s more than happy to have his kids stay anytime they want, but of course this will beAngie’s decision as much as his,” explains the insider. “And that’s always the issue that causes drama.”
