PITT'S PLAYGROUND

Brad Pitt installs a huge water slide, bouncy castle and a treehouse at LA home amid custody battle with Angelina Jolie

BRAD Pitt has turned the backyard of his LA home into the ultimate kids' playground after installing a water slide, bouncy castle and even a cool treehouse.

The Hollywood actor, who is currently embroiled in a custody battle with ex Angelina Jolie, has even splashed the cash on a skatepark and has filled his large swimming pool with all the fun inflatables a child could want.

The giant skate park circles his sprawling Los Feliz mansion, which is just half a mile away from the £19.5 million home Angelina purchased in April.

Brad isn't short of space for his extravagant installations, having splurged on the four properties surrounding the original mansion he bought way back in 1994 for £1.3 million.

Snapping up the neighbouring homes has enabled the Fury star to create one giant compound.

The Fight Club actor shares children six kids with ex Angelina;  Maddox, 17, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 12, and ten-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

The former couple will head to court next month, with the custody trial expected to take between two and three weeks.

According to , Angelina and Brad have filed legal documents asking a Los Angeles Superior Court Judge to give them until June 2019 to finalise their bitter divorce.

If their request is approved, Judge Ouderkirk will hear and determine all pretrial issues, requests and motions, as well as the trial itself.

However, the ex-couple will face one another in court from December 4 this year to try to make custody arrangements for their six kids.

It has been reported that Angelina wants sole physical custody, whereas Brad is fighting for joint custody at a 50/50 split - with the actor said to be accusing his ex-wife of trying to deny him the right to parent their children.

The stars have been embroiled in a bitter custody battle in recent months, with Angelina accusing Brad of not paying any "meaningful" child support since she filed for divorce.

Brad hit back, claiming that he "loaned" her $8million (£6.1m) to help her purchase her current home, as well as paying over $1.3million (£995,000) "in bills for the benefit of [Jolie] and the minor children."
