Brad Pitt is looking to create some magical moments with his children on Father’s Day on 18 June. The War Machine star has planned some special sessions to bond with his brood amid the bitter divorce and custody battle with Angelina Jolie.

According to HollywoodLife, the 53-year-old Oscar-winning producer wants to spoil his children — Shiloh, Maddox, Knox, Vivienne, Zahara and Pax — on the occasion so they can cherish the moment forever. “Brad wants to spend Father’s Day just laughing and playing with his kids,” a source close to the actor told the gossip news website. “Brad loves getting his hands dirty with the kids and their best times together have been playing outside.”

Most of all he just wants to be surrounded by them this weekend after what was his most challenging year as a father and a man.”
