After a string of vicious arguments tore them apart over the Christmas holidays, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have finally decided they're ready to go their separate ways.
Despite the couple's original plans to stay together for the sake of their six children, Now exclusively revealed last week that lawyers have been drafted in - and an announcement from the couple is anticipated soon.
While most families were enjoying spending extra time together over the festive season, Brad and Ange's Long Island mansion in New York State was rocked by a series of explosive rows.
Our source tells us: ‘Angelina and Brad are both sad that it's come to this, but even they can't stomach any more misery. They've decided to split for the sake of their sanity. If they don't move on now, God knows what will happen .
‘Brad's pulling away more than Ange, but she knows she's almost powerless to keep him. She feels her heart's being ripped apart and she's dreading her life having to go through the same thing, but it's unavoidable because there's so much at stake.
‘It won't be easy to end their union. Their fortune can be conservatively estimated at £150 million and of course they have six kids. This will be the ugliest break-up Hollywood's ever seen.'
While reports are swirling that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are headed for a split, multiple sources close to the family tell PEOPLE that the rumors are false.
"Everything is fine" with the couple, who are parents to six kids, a source says.
Another source says the split reports , which were first published in a British tabloid, are "totally false."
In recent weeks, it's been business as usual for the busy couple – movie shoots, family outings, charity work – and several observers say they saw nothing amiss.
Couple Time
On Jan. 2, Pitt, 46, and Jolie, 34, shared a romantic dinner for two at the French restaurant Le Perigord. "You could tell they wanted to spend time alone and didn't want to be bothered by anybody else," says a source. "It was wonderful to see a couple so much in love."
Busy Work Schedules
With filming wrapped, the two headed back to Los Angeles to work on pre-production for their upcoming movies: Jolie's The Tourist and Pitt's Lost City of Z. On Jan. 16, Pitt took their eldest son, Maddox, on a boys' trip to the New Orleans Saints' playoff game, while Jolie was spotted grocery shopping and dropping by an Apple Store in L.A. with daughters Zahara and Shiloh.
In the last few days, Jolie reportedly jetted to New York City for a Vanity Fair photo shoot, while Pitt stayed in L.A. to participate in friend George Clooney’s Hope for Haiti Now telethon. (Both Pitt and Jolie made major donations to the relief effort.) Pitt didn’t attend Saturday's Screen Actors Guild Awards, where his Inglourious Basterds picked up the award for best ensemble cast.
Despite presenting a united front for awards season, glamorous couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s relationship is dissolving, according to several sources. Friends of Brad say he sometimes regrets leaving Jennifer Aniston and actually still loves her, but he stays with Angie for his children’s sake.
“Brad was very calm and mellow and gave a great, funny speech — he had everyone on the floor with his imitation of Quentin,” a witness tells OK! of their appearance at the Director’s Guild Awards. “He and Angie seemed very happy.”

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has met with hospitalized Haitian earthquake victims in the Dominican Republic.Hollywood Gossip from huffingtonpost
Dario Manon is a spokesman for the Dario Contrera Hospital in the capital of Santo Domingo, where dozens of survivors of the Jan. 12 earthquake in neighboring Haiti are receiving medical help.
Manon says Jolie toured the hospital Monday and spoke with several patients. He told reporters: "She spoke with several children and a Haitian woman who recognized her and requested help."
The actress was accompanied by Gonzalo Vargas Llosa, a representative of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees and the son of Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa.
Jolie is a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. refugee agency.
Apparently when Angelina Jolie flew from LA to Miami, she ate a salad and an ice cream sundae, then watched Julie & Julia. Later she chatted up a fellow passenger and said: “I’m such a squishy mom. I really am just a squishy mom; I can’t wait to just be in bed hanging out with them.”
This anecdote, along with old quotes about “further additions” to the family, creates a “story” with the headline, “A Baby For Brad And Angelina!” The spread is illustrated with a photo of Angie, with her arms up, cheering! Of course, she is at the Super Bowl.
But since Brad recently purchased a house, the mag screams, “THEY’RE MAKING ROOM FOR MORE CHILDREN!” Was it only two weeks ago that this same mag L&S’s sister mag declared “Yes, It’s Over!”? In any case, this article notes that since Angie has to film “steamy thriller” The Tourist, which includes sex scenes with Johnny Depp, she won’t be getting pregnant right now. She might adopt, though!
Star Magazine claims in yet another story that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s kissing and hugging at the Super Bowl was “all for show.” Body-language expert Toni Coleman says: “To me this feels contrived and exaggerated. You can tell these two are actors.”
It’s love, Italian style!
A-list celeb couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie vacation in Venice, Italy on Tuesday, and RadarOnline.com has the priceless pics.
The happy couple -- with kids in tow -- enjoyed a gondola ride and munched on Italian ice, putting to rest rumors that their marriage is in shambles.
Taking their kids out on the town, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were spotted in Venice, Italy earlier today (February 17).
The “Fight Club” stud and his “Changeling” chick looked like the perfect parents as they helped their little ones onto a boat in one of the city’s famous canals.
In related news, it seems Ms. Jolie is looking to add even more children to her brood, and hopes to have a total of 10 kids.
An insider revealed, “Angie is really happy with the state of the family, but yes, she wants more children- at least four more. She’s ready to roll again.”
Angelina Jolie was the brightest star in the City of Lights Monday, as the A-list actress was photographed filming The Tourist in Paris, France and RadarOnline.com has all the pictures for you.
She shined in a beautiful cream outfit, complete with a pencil skirt, as she shot a scene at a swanky Parisian café.
The 34-year-old star has made headlines over the past few days in her relationships with the men in her life. On Sunday in Venice, Italy, she reunited with her estranged father Jon Voight after a long feud. And as for those never-ending marriage-on-the-rocks rumors, she presented a united front with husband Brad Pitt over the weekend, as they traveled through Europe with their kids.
Jolie stars in this summer's Salt, in which she plays a CIA agent accused of being a Russian spy. The film hits theaters July 23.
After fake breaking them up for a few months now, a prominent celebrity gossip magazine has officially brought Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie back together.
It's a reunion that is nothing short of heartwarming.
Earlier this week, in between takes of her latest film, the couple shared a very public kiss in front of photographers, LEAVING NO DOUBT that they are in love.
That's according to Star, which spent the better part of the last three months trying to convince us of the opposite, based on little to know factual information.
All is right with the world now, though. After their kids "begged them to stop fighting," Angelina and Brad have made peace and mended their "fractured" love.
Pretty easy to fix what ain't broke, no?
"The change of scene and the fact that they're all together in one place has done wonders," a source said. “Angie believes she can actually be happy with Brad again.”
Brad even managed to bring Angie and her long-estranged dad, Jon Voight, together! Over the weekend, father and daughter enjoyed the beautiful sights of Venice.
That's where the Jolie-Pitts are based for Angie’s movie shoot, The Tourist, with Johnny Depp. Next week, Star will probably report on Depp cheating with Angelina.
That or Jennifer Aniston will come after Brad again. That lonely, pathetic hag just can't keep her mitts off her ex-husband in the tabloids for the past five years now.
All eyes are on the set of The Tourist in Paris, France, where the world’s sexiest actors Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp will collide and create a media frenzy of explosive proportions. However, it won’t just be the star power causing fireworks but the looming shadow of scandal and supposed infidelity between the pulchritudinous pair.
Despite each having wonderful partners and children, some media outlets have envisioned an inevitable love connection that started the moment the two signed on to the film. Ongoing rumors of marital strife between Angelina and Brad and Pitt’s recent rugged and ragged appearance have tabloids pushing for a catalyst for Angelina to end their relationship.
Depp has been very private about his love life to French singer/actress Vanessa Paradis but sources claim that femme fatale Jolie’s fierce sensuality will leave Depp mad with lust and ready to leave his gap-toothed gal. Fame offers a side-by-side photo comparison of the 2 couples so viewers can draw their own conclusions about whether Jolie and Depp should ditch their rougher looking partners and join together in sensual bliss.
Lisa Rinna, who just confessed to undergoing surgery to remove her silicone lip injections, has become a big advocate of a more natural look, telling me, “I want young women to learn to love themselves. You don’t need to change anything especially your lips.”
As a mother of two beautiful daughters, Delilah Belle and Amelia Gray, ages 8 and 11, Lisa knows too well the pressure on young women and wants to make sure she sets a good example.
“I remove the cover of magazines when girls who have had too much plastic surgery are on them. That’s the last thing my girls need to see. All these young Hollywood actresses need to stop trying to be the next Angelina Jolie and learn to love themselves,” Lisa tells me.
“Trust me, now that I have removed the silicone from my lips, I feel sexier and Harry loves them. It makes kissing and something else much easier,” she giggled.
It is the ultimate race to the altar! Nearly five years after Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey split – a mutual decision after three years of marriage – both stars are officially ready for round two.
Just a week after Lachey, 37, popped the question to longtime girlfriend Vanessa Minnillo, 30, whom he began dating in 2006, Simpson’s beau, NFL player Eric Johnson, seemingly took a hint.
Johnson, 31, proposed to Simpson, 30, and now she has the ring to prove it.
Timing aside, however, a source tells PEOPLE that Johnson “had been planning the engagement for awhile and the date of the engagement was a special date for them.”
Below, LeAnn Rimes and Hayden Panettiere go toe-to-toe in a fierce fight for fashion supremacy. Who will prevail? That's for you to tell us. Ding, ding!
Rimes may or may not be engaged to Eddie Cibrian, but there is little doubt she looked fab in a Elizabeth and James dress on a night out in L.A.
Meamwhile, the former Heroes star and current Wladimir Klitschko boo paired a green version with a leather jacket for his match in Germany.
She did it for the kids. Or, rather, she stopped doing it for the kids.
Jenna Jameson, who has not starred in an adult film since Kobe Loves Jenna, told W Magazine in its latest issue that she will no longer get penetrated by men or women on camera. The reason?
“I really don’t think I need to say, ‘Mommy was a porn star,’” Jameson said of explaining her former occupation to Jesse and Journey, her twin sons Tito Ortiz.
