Eddie Cibrian Claims Estranged Wife Physically Attacked Him, Seeks Joint Custody of Kids

ET has obtained court documents filed by Eddie Cibrian, in which the star seeks joint physical custody of his children with estranged wife Brandi Glanville, who he claims has physically and mentally abused him and won't allow him to see his children.

Regarding his children -- Mason, 6, and Jake, 2, Cibrian claims in the papers: "[Glanville] is refusing to set a schedule for visitation with the minor children. My relationship with our minor children is the most important thing in my life. To be denied time with our minor children, just because the respondent is angry with me, is unfair to me and extremely detrimental to our minor children.”

He claims that Glanville is full of "emotional rage" and "too angry with me to think of what is the best interest of our children."
