Brad Pitt is reportedly staying at a sober house amid his ongoing divorce and custody war against Angelina Jolie. Rumor has it, the "Allied" actor is living in a "secret beach retreat to kick booze and pot with [a] support group of pals."

"Brad Pitt has settled into a secret 'sober house' - where he's battling his bad-boy addictions to drugs and booze with the help of a handpicked posse!" a source tells National Enquirer, "It's been a huge lifestyle change, but Brad's snuffed out the weed for good. He's swapped joints for juicing, and beers for bike rides with buddies. He's left the sins of the city behind for fresh sea air and a new start!"

"His friends are keeping an eye on him and making sure he doesn't get bored or lonely. The plan is to make things as painless as possible for him while he tries to say on the path to sobriety," adds the source.

The mag previously claimed that Brad was forced into rehab for addiction issues. The actor allegedly spent a whopping $15,000 on a five-night sober retreat in a private suite inside Casa Del Mar, a luxurious five-star resort in Santa Monica, California, where he allegedly attended a "Narcotics Anonymous" group party on January 22. The report, however, was later debunked by a source close to the actor.
