In a shocking turn of events, Angelina Jolie has officially filed for divorce from her husband, Brad Pitt, after learning about his infidelity with his co-star, Marion Cotillard.
A trusted source revealed that Jolie hired a private investigator because she suspected Pitt of cheating on her during the filming of their movie “Allied”.
Unfortunately, her suspicions were confirmed, and this was the final straw for Jolie.
For months, rumors circulated about Pitt's close relationship with Cotillard, both on and off the set of their World War II drama in London.
The private investigator discovered that Pitt had been involved in an affair with Cotillard while also indulging in a wild lifestyle filled with drugs and parties.
This revelation left Jolie feeling betrayed and fed up with Pitt's behavior.
However, a source close to Cotillard denied the affair rumors, stating that she is still in a committed relationship with her long-term partner, French actor and director Guillaume Canet.
They have been together since 2007 and have a child together, although they have chosen not to get married.
The source could not confirm reports that Cotillard is pregnant with her second child.
Jolie's manager, Geyer Kosinski, expressed that Jolie's priority is to protect her children and asked for privacy during this challenging time.
Similarly, Pitt released a statement through People magazine, expressing his sadness and emphasizing the importance of focusing on their children's well-being.
Beyond the affair, Jolie was also tired of constantly arguing with Pitt about their lifestyle choices.
She had been considering leaving Hollywood to dedicate more time to her humanitarian work, while Pitt preferred the glitz and glamour of Tinseltown.
This fundamental difference in priorities led to further tensions in their relationship.
Additionally, Jolie felt increasingly distant from her famous actor father, Jon Voight, while Pitt maintained a closer relationship with him.
This disparity further strained their marriage, as Voight is deeply rooted in Hollywood culture, which Jolie has grown tired of.
TMZ reported that Jolie believed Pitt's drinking and marijuana use were negatively affecting their children, along with his anger issues.
These factors ultimately contributed to Jolie's decision to file for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.
In her filing, Jolie requested physical custody of their children, while allowing Pitt joint legal custody.
She also made it clear that she did not seek spousal support.
Interestingly, rumors have circulated that the couple's French chateau, Miraval, where they got married in 2014, has been quietly put on the market.
Locals were informed that they were selling the property due to their impending separation.
Jolie has enlisted the help of top lawyer Laura Wasser to represent her in the divorce proceedings.
The court documents state that the couple officially separated on September 15, 2016.
This news has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and left fans questioning the future of one of the industry's most iconic couples.
