Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie set for longest ever Hollywood divorce a

Awkwardly, her former husband Brad Pitt will be there, too – for his new hitman-caper movie Wolfs, with George Clooney.

Sources indicate that the schedules have been arranged so that the warring couple – who continue to be embroiled in legal action eight years after they split – will not be at the film festival at the same time.

Like those German weather house clocks where one figure comes out as the other goes in, they are going to attend the festival and stay at the same hotel, the Cipriani – but not come face to face.

The estranged pair have managed never to be at the same event in Hollywood since splitting, with Jolie largely skipping red-carpet events in LA, even though she lives there with their six children.

It comes after it was revealed Brad is ‘distraught’ and upset he has been unable to speak to his estranged son Pax who is in hospital after crashing his bike into the back of a car in Los Angeles.

Pax was not wearing a helmet when his electric dirt bike ran up the back of a car stopped at a red light on Sunday at 5.12pm on Los Feliz Boulevard, Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to Dailymail.com.

Witnesses at the scene said Pax immediately complained about pain in his head and hip after the crash.

Responding police and paramedics were worried he’d suffered bleeding on his brain so rushed him to the hospital.

The car’s driver reportedly did their duty by getting out and checking on the injured Pax before police and paramedics arrived.
