Brad’s Breakdown As Angelina Plots To Be ‘The New Di’

Angelina Jolie made the first move in divorcing Brad Pitt — because the superstar actor wasn't able to live up to her high humanitarian standards! As reported by The National ENQUIRER, Angelina was already fed up over her husband's secret life as a druggie hung up on pot and prostitutes! But sources also tell The ENQUIRER that Brad is neglecting his own charities and even his own grandmother. Meanwhile, her biographer, Ian Halperin, says Angelina is aspiring to become the next Princess Diana!

Halperin, the author of "'Brangelina, the Untold Story," says that Angelina had offered to take the children to live in Britain — "increasingly, the base for her charitable and political work as a United Nations Special Envoy for Refugees" — while leaving Brad in L.A. to enjoy an open marriage. Halperin added that Angelina planned to "pursue her ambition to continue the work of the late Princess Diana, whose life and role of champion of the landmine victims and AIDS sufferers she has studied in minute detail."

But her dreams of being a global humanitarian were held back by Brad's own scandals — including The ENQUIRER catching him running a pitiful charity while neglecting his own grandmother! “She misses him,” said Mary Ann Lanier, the sister of 94-year-old Betty Russell. “I’m sure he’s busy, but I don’t know why he doesn’t stay in contact with his grandmother!"

Insiders claim Brad — whose dad, William Pitt, is Betty’s son — must be aware his grandmother is living in substandard conditions! According to an official government website, Medicare authorities have rated the facility where Betty lives as “much below average!” The assisted-living center in Shawnee, Okla., was even recently given a one-star rating for quality, with inspectors citing deficiencies described as an “immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety.”

Meanwhile, Brad is having much worse luck with charity than his acclaimed wife! The ENQUIRER learned that homes built in New Orleans by his Make It Right foundation are collapsing like his marriage! The charity’s director of innovations, Tim Duggan, even quit amid rumors Brad has been focused on “fixing his marital issues” instead of tending to business.

CEO Tom Darden has also bolted along with four board members — while a slew of the 110 homes built for Louisiana residents in the wake of Hurricane Katrina are falling down! Lumber has rotted, and flat roofs had to be replaced for failing to protect against Louisiana’s torrential rains.

“Brad Pitt’s non-profit organization is in complete disarray,” said a source. Charges of massive overspending surfaced after Make It Right blew a whopping $24 million to build an additional 86 homes — and the group has yet to erect a single home since announcing plans to construct at least 50 in Kansas City.

Meanwhile, reports Halperin, Angelina had been "merely biding her time" before filing her divorce papers — and even has her eye on a resident of Britain who never has to worry about his own grandmother!

"One friend," declared Halperin, "even suggested that Angelina harbored a secret ambition to marry into the Royal Family, saying: ‘Prince Andrew is on her radar!’"
