Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's divorce battle is turning nastier as both seem to be hell-bent on getting the custody of their children.

Now it has come out that Jolie wants to cut Pitt out of the lives of their children forever, reports Hollywood Life. The 41-year-old actress is said to be really upset with the way things have turned up as she had not thought Pitt would press so hard for the custody of the children. She was under the impression that she would get her way.

However, the 'Allied' actor is stated to be willing to do all that he can to meet the children. Insiders say that Jolie is perhaps not buying the theory that he is their dad and he has all the rights to see them. This is why she has been very ruthless from the very beginning and even when Pitt came up with a visitation rights plan midway, she did not relent.

Her attorney Laura Wesser said no and as of now, Jolie is keeping a very low profile. She has been hiding in a Bel Air hotel in Los Angeles with her children for weeks and comes in and out through a back entrance. She is really relieved to be there and appreciates the privacy the hotel has offered her. After all, she can keep the kids away from the media glare as well as from the eyes of Pitt.

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that Jolie has also removed her wedding ring, reports Radar Online. She was spotted sans the ring when she was arriving at the said hotel with her six kids. Notably, this is only the second time when the 'Tomb Raider' actress has been spotted in public after she filed for divorce in September.

Coming back to the custody battle, the court has rejected the plea of Brad Pitt to seal their divorce battle from the public. Judge Richard Burdge has denied his request citing it to be too 'broad.'

It may be remembered here that Pitt had asked for sealing of the documents as he believed that any leakage would lead to irreparable damage to the privacy right of their children.
