Not only are fans devastated about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's divorce, but the rumor mill also runs wild. It seems the gossip media does not stop from churning out false stores, especially since the former lovers' custody battle is worsening.
Gossip Cop goes to separate fact from fiction so that people will know the truth about the two's ongoing issue. For starters, Jolie's decision to call off their divorce to end the custody battle is not true. In reality, the "Wanted" actress no longer has romantic feelings towards Pitt and does not see the possibility of reuniting with him.
There is another rumor suggesting that Jolie collapsed due to the stress of handling the custody battle. This false story only surfaced after photos of her doing stunts for the movie mentioned above went online. This was far from being an evidence of a current health crisis.
Also, Angelina Jolie is said to be using a so-called "dirty diary" against Brad Pitt. As Gossip Cop explained, however, that if she had such material, she would have immediately presented it to the judge. And by doing so, she could easily prove the "World War Z" actor as an unfit father. But she had not given any such evidence to date; hence, the court granted Pitt more time with their children and encouraged Jolie to facilitate a better relationship between the kids and their father.
Jennifer Garner, on the other hand, did not escape the gossip media storm. She allegedly feels "horrible" about Pitt's custody battle. It turns out that the article was simply meant for clickbait.
E! News reports that the former couple reached a détente sometime in December 2016. This was after Jolie's surprising September filing. It was believed then that Pitt and "Allied" co-star Marion Cotillard had an affair. Both have firmly denied it, though.
