Angelina Jolie has been reeling since her Cambodian-born adopted son
Maddox demanded to live with with his
estranged father,
Brad Pitt, after Angie visited and prayed at the grave of
Pol Pot — the murderous dictator who killed 3 million of his people!
“Maddox must have been livid when he’d learned what his mother had done!” a source exclusively snitched to
The National ENQUIRER. In fact, a source close to Angie compared it to Angie having a Jewish child and praying at a memorial to
Adolf Hitler!
After learning his mother had visited the monster’s grave during a trip, sources said Maddox
immediately called Brad and begged to go
live with him, according to insiders! “Brad tried to soothe him, saying Angie is interested in the history of the country where she found Maddox,” our source revealed.
“He also explained that he needs to be careful while the pair’s lawyers work out
custody of all their kids — and to hold tight until he could speak with her about it," the source continued. "But Maddox had to be
furious!”In an ironic twist, it was Maddox (left, with Angie and brother
Pax) who allegedly got into a
physical confrontation with his dad during the infamous 2016 family flight that Angie claimed was evidence of Brad’s abusive behavior toward their children.
Pol Pot (shown here in 1998) and his Khmer Rouge party ruled over Cambodia with a bloody fist from 1975 to 1979, slaughtering as many as 3 million people through starvation, work camps and mass executions on notorious “killing fields.”
“It’s a shock that a
U.N. Goodwill Ambassador would be seen praying at the gravestone (left) of this monster,” said a source. And it was devastating for Maddox, whose birth family suffered through those murderous years.

Angie has visited the warlord’s resting place multiple times, locals said. Her first visit was in 1998, and she returned in 2001 on the trip where she found and adopted Maddox. “We know Angelina has come to visit a couple of times,” the keeper of the graveyard, Phoun Meng, told The ENQUIRER.
“It has to be galling to Maddox,” our source said. “She saved him from this evil place, and now she’s returned like it’s some kind of shrine!” Bizarrely, the site has become a twisted tourist attraction. Gamblers who visit the tyrant’s grave claim it brings them good luck — at the casino next door!

“It’s a horrific tradition,” admitted one local source. “People don’t care that he was a monster. They just want to win money.” For Angie though, her dates with the dead despot may bring a high price indeed.
“The visits will certainly become a
huge matter in their divorce talks,” the insider dished. “Whether Maddox winds up with Brad is still in question — but this certainly doesn’t help
Angie’s custody chances.”
