The rumors about Angelina Jolie's alleged frail health is continuously growing like a wildfire. Although the 43-year-old star has been slender since time immemorial, there are claims she is intentionally making herself look thin for sympathy, making Brad Pitt look like the villain.
A gossip magazine claimed Jolie is taking desperate measures to put her estranged husband down. A so-called insider even said the "Maleficent" star is starving herself to look thin and making it appear Pitt did it to her.
The insider continued saying Jolie is only eating nuts and berries, but she is just generally taking coffee and lemon water to help her get through the day. "She seems to think it's her secret weapon [against Pitt]," the tipster said.
The publication also asserted Jolie is doing it all because she is still in love with Pitt. Allegedly, the "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" star still has "very strong feelings" toward Pitt. "There's a lot of emotion and history," the insider identified as the 54-year-old actor's "close friend" added.
However, Gossip Cop contradicted all these claims. Even though Pitt and Jolie's custody battle continues, the latter is not purposely starving herself to retain "primary physical custody." She is also not "digging" things up because she is still in love with the "Fight Club" actor.
Also, there is a little bit of contradiction with the source's identity. As the insider is said to be Pitt's close friend, it might be more credible if it is from Jolie's side. The "Original Sin" actress has been thin even when she and her former spouse were still together. So an insider, who is close to Jolie this time, insisted these rumors are not true.
According to Hollywood Life, Jolie is doing everything to prevent drawing negative attention regarding her health and body. A source said she is trying to ignore all the things people are saying about her. She is also telling her kids that whatever people are thinking about them it is "none of their business."
However, Jolie is also hurt when people are talking about her alleged drastic weight loss. She is even taking it personally at times and is feeling upset whenever they are starting to body shame her. It is also affecting her when they are making assumptions about her health.
Jolie assures everyone she feels 100 percent fine and her fans should not worry about her health. She manages to keep up with her six kids, Maddox (17), Pax (14), Zahara (13), Shiloh (12), and Vivienne and Knox (10). For her, it is enough to prove that her health and weight are both in excellent condition.
