Brad Pitt's girlfriend hits back at trolls mocking romance with the actor
Nicole Poturalski is rumoured to have been dating actor, who is currently locked in a custody battle with Angelina Jolie, since August
Brad Pitt's new girlfriend Nicole Poturaski has hit back tat trolls who've criticised her relationship with the actor amid his divorce from Angelina Jolie.
Nicole took to her Instagram to speak about the abuse she's received since her romance with Brad became public.
Speaking in her native German, Nicole asked: "Hey guys I have been wondering since forever why people leave hateful comments?
"Why? What is the benefit? Just in general, I want to understand the train of thought."
27-year-old Nicole, who has been described as a mix of Brad's exes Angelina and Jennifer Aniston then said she found people commenting on her relationship 'sad.'
She hit out: "It’s just so rude and sad for those commenting. Just don’t follow people you don’t want to see or [if you] don’t like their content. Easy."
Nicole, who is said to be in an open marriage with restaurateur Roland Mary, 65, is rumoured to have been dating Brad, 56, since summer.
The German model's relationship with the Hollywood heartthrob was uncovered back in August when they were spotted jetting off on a romantic trip to France together.
The pair spent time at Chateau Miraval, the same estate where Brad married Angelina Jolie in 2014.
Sources at the time said Brad 'didn't care' about the awkward location choice.
Brad is currently locked in a custody battle with his second wife Angelina over their six children.
The Troy actor is said to be wanting 50/50 access to Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.
The Mr and Mrs Smith co-stars split in 2016 but are still finalising the details of their divorce with their custody hearing beginning this week.
Brad's legal team are planning to call up Angelina Jolie's Girl, Interrupted co-star Jillian Armenante to testify in the case.
According to US Weekly, a witness list filed from Brad includes Armenante, who starred with Jolie on the 1999 movie.
Psychological thriller Girl, Interrupted followed a young woman detained at a psychiatric hospital after a supposed suicide attempt.
Angelina and Armenante also worked together eight years later in the 2007 film A Mighty Heart.
Other names on Brad's witness list are said to include a therapist, security guard and numerous psychologists, reports the publication.
Back in June, Brad was spotted leaving his ex-wife's LA home on his motorbike back in June after visiting their kids.
The Troy actor is now said to be 'at odds' with Angelina over how much time he can spend with kids Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 12-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Last December, Angelina gave an interview with Harper's Bazaar where she claimed how she wanted to live anywhere in the United States but she can't because of Brad.
Sharing her plans with the magazine, the actress said she “would love to live abroad and will do so as soon as my children are 18.”
Angelina said that her travel ideas were currently on hold because of her ex-husband.
“Right now I’m having to base where their father chooses to live,” she explained.
