Are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reconciling? Rumor has it, the "Maleficent" actress is turning to her ex-husband in her hour of need as she's having a really tough time following their divorce.

According to a source, Angie is begging Brad to help her as she struggles with a variety of issues, including a dramatic weight loss and public backlash. The "Wanted" star had a meltdown over a Vanity Fair profile, but there's much more at play with her.

"What's happening here is that Angie is not in a good place right now, and she's starting to crack," the source tells Radar Online, "Six demanding kids, a move, tons of projects in the works and so much more - all on her own. She wants more help from Brad, but he's convinced her only motivation is money and has had enough of groveling for scraps when it comes to supervised visitation."

The source continues, "Truth is though, he's the only person who could lift her out of these stressful patches, so it's no surprise she's missing his support and offering this olive branch."
