 NEW YORK (AP) — Brangelina is no more. Angelina Jolie Pitt has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, bringing an end to one of the world's most star-studded, tabloid headline-generating romances. 
 
 An attorney for Jolie Pitt, Robert Offer, said Tuesday in a statement that she has filed for the dissolution of the marriage. Offer said the decision to divorce was made "for the health of the family." 
 
 Offer refused to answer questions about the divorce. 
 
 The couple has six children together: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne. 
 
 Though together for 12 years, Pitt and Jolie Pitt only wed in August 2014. They married privately in the French hamlet of Correns in Provence with their children serving as ring bearers and throwing flower petals. They announced the ceremony days later. 
 
 This is the second marriage for Pitt, who previously wed Jennifer Aniston. It's the third for Jolie Pitt, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller. 
 
 Though their initial romance — begun after the pair starred together in 2005's "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" — sparked an avalanche of tabloid interest, Jolie Pitt and Pitt settled into their own unique kind of globe-trotting domesticity. 
 
 The pair adopted children from Cambodia, Vietnam and Ethiopia. And they sought to direct the glare of their celebrity toward other causes. Jolie Pitt, a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations, became an outspoken voice for refugees and various causes in Africa, as well as for breast cancer treatment after undergoing a double mastectomy. 
 
 Jolie Pitt also launched herself as a film director. Last year, the couple starred together in her "By the Sea," playing a glamorous couple vacationing together in France while their marriage was on the rocks. It made a mere $538,000 at the box office. 
 
 In a 2014 interview with The Associated Press, Jolie Pitt said playing a couple with marital problems was cathartic. 
 
 "It almost makes you get past those issues because you can laugh at them," Jolie Pitt said. "You do a film about bad marriage and you witness that behavior. You study it, you let it out, you attack each other and then you just want to hold each other and make sure you never behave that way." ||||| Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie were “dumped at the same time,” reveals In Touch. The magazine reports Aniston “laid into” Justin Theroux after their disappointing at-home one-year anniversary celebration. A source says, “She called him out for being a grump all week and for ruining what should have been a blissful time together,” prompting Theroux to call it quits and leaving Aniston “devastated.” As for Jolie, the publication reveals Brad Pitt “walked out” on her when she “went nuclear” after watching his love scenes with Marion Cotillard in the trailer for Allied. A source says the trailer “sent Jolie over the edge,” and an argument ensued, during which she was also furious that Pitt was back in touch with Aniston. Now, notes In Touch, Pitt is “done” with his marriage. While all very dramatic, neither Jolie nor Aniston have been “dumped” by their respective spouses. A rep for Aniston exclusively tells Gossip Cop, “They are insane at In Touch.” And a Pitt-Jolie insider also says the report is untrue. Sadly, Gossip Cop is not surprised by the falsity of the tabloid’s latest tale. In the last few months, Aniston’s rep denied the magazine’s June cover story that wrongly alleged she was pregnant, and a spokesperson for Pitt exclusively told Gossip Cop the outlet’s claim in July that he and Jolie were adopting a seventh child from Africa was also inaccurate. 
 
 Keeping Up With The Kardashians” is being canceled, according to the new edition of Star magazine. The publication reports that while Kris Jenner is “scrambling” to save the show from the chopping block, “not everyone in the fame-obsessed family is upset” about the cancelation. An insider tells the magazine, “Kris is absolutely desperate to save the show. But she can’t do that without her kids, and hardly anyone in the family wants to keep doing it.” “The show has turned into a grind for the kids,” explains the outlet’s source. Kim Kardashian’s husband Kanye West, notes Star as an example, is “encouraging the mom of two to move on” from the series. So, when’s the last episode of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” going to air? Not for a long time. The show is not being canceled, Gossip Cop has learned. A rep for Kim Kardashian exclusively tells us the tabloid’s story about the E! show being canned is 100 percent “false.” Interestingly, the magazine made this same inaccurate claim in a March 2014 cover story that read, “Kardashians Canceled.” The allegation wasn’t true then, and it remains wrong today. 
 
 Jennifer Garner’s going to divorce Ben Affleck out of “revenge”? That’s what Life & Style reveals in its latest issue. The publication reports that after Affleck recently let her and the kids down again, Garner’s been “pushed over the edge” and will leave him for good. So, what happened that’s causing Garner to take “steps to wipe him from her life once and for all”? The magazine says after their three kids spent all day decorating the backyard of the family’s L.A. mansion for his birthday, Affleck was a no-show and only returned home the next day, blaming work for keeping him away. Now, Garner is “getting the ultimate revenge,” reports the magazine. An insider says Garner “wants Ben out of the house,” and has “decided to finally file divorce papers.” “She’s absolutely done with giving him any more chances…. She’s getting revenge on Ben by going through with the divorce,” adds the outlet’s source. There are a few problems with the Life & Style story, Gossip Cop can report. For starters, there were never plans for a birthday party in California, and Affleck never flaked on his kids. The family actually celebrated his birthday all together on a vacation in Montana. A source close to the situation exclusively tells Gossip Cop, “They just spent a lovely birthday weekend together with family and friends.” Our impeccable insider mockingly adds that the same publication reported earlier in the year that “they were pregnant; so can we really trust them?”

Nicole Richie told her little sister Sofia to “ditch” Justin Bieber because he’s a “bad influence,” reveals OK!. In fact, the magazine notes Nicole is “begging” Sofia to “cut things off” with Bieber. According to a source, Nicole “sees through Justin,” and knows he likes to “bounce around from girl to girl.” “Nicole is really worried [Sofia’s] going to get hurt,” because the younger Richie is “sweet and young,” says the insider. The publication’s source adds, “Nicole thinks that Justin will be a bad influence or just end up breaking her heart.” Gossip Cop looked into the magazine’s claims, and we’ve learned that Nicole does not believe Bieber is a “bad influence” on Sofia, who recently turned 18. While Nicole is protective of her kid sister, she also knows Sofia is capable of handling herself. A Richie family insider exclusively assures Gossip Cop that Nicole never told Sofia to “ditch” Bieber. Our source says the tabloid’s claim is “not true” and a conversation like that “did not happen.” Of course, OK! hasn’t exactly been known for having accurate Richie sources. Gossip Cop busted the tabloid nearly a year ago when it wrongly reported Nicole and her husband Joel Madden were on the verge of divorcing. Much like that story, the current claim about Nicole warning her sister Sofia about Bieber is similarly false. ||||| Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)

 Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt after learning he was cheating on her with his sexy co-star, a well-placed source told The Post on Tuesday. 
 
 “She hired a private eye because she felt that he was fooling around with her on the set, and it turns out, he was. And that was the final straw,’’ the source said. 
 
 Pitt, 52, had been rumored to have been cozying up to his “Allied’’ co-star Marion Cotillard, 40, for months during the pair’s filming of the World War II drama in London. 
 
 The PI discovered that Pitt was cheating on his wife of two years with Cotillard — while also partying like a single guy on a mission, the source said. 
 
 “The atmosphere [off-set] was full of hard drugs and Russian hookers, and Angie was told Brad got caught up in it,’’ the source said. 
 
 “He’s in the throes of some insane midlife crisis, and Angie is fed up.” 
 
 But a source close to Cotillard denied the Pitt affair rumors and insisted she is still with her long-term partner, French actor and director Guillaume Canet. 
 
 “They are still very much together. They have been a couple since 2007 and have one child but have never married,’’ the source said of Cotillard and Canet. 
 
 The source could not confirm French reports that Cotillard is pregnant with her second child with Canet.

 Jolie’s manager, Geyer Kosinski, said Tuesday, “Angelina will always do what’s in the best interest to protect her children. 
 
 “She appreciates everyone’s understanding of their need for privacy at this time,’’ he told E! News. 
 
 Pitt added in a statement to People magazine, “I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. 
 
 “I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.” 
 
 In addition to her husband’s alleged affair, Jolie, 41, was sick and tired of constantly sparring over their lifestyle, another source told The Post. 
 
 She has increasingly wanted to quit Hollywood in favor of devoting herself full-time to traveling the globe for her humanitarian work, while Pitt prefers Tinseltown and its parties, the source said. 
 
 Jolie spoke before the United Nations in Manhattan just this past Friday to ask them to help millions of Syrian refugees. 
 
 “The older she gets, the more serious she becomes, and she is sick of the Hollywood thing,’’ the second source said. 
 
 “He wants to make movies. She doesn’t. It’s a fundamental difference. It’s how you live your life.’’ 
 
 Making matters worse, Pitt is closer to Jolie’s famous actor dad, Jon Voight, than she is, the source said. 
 
 “Jon’s a Hollywood guy, and she’s been estranged. Brad hangs out with her father more than she does,’’ the source said. 
 
 Another source told TMZ that Jolie believes that her hubby’s drinking and pot-smoking is affecting their kids. 
 
 Add to that his “anger problem,” and the mom of six said enough is enough, the source told the website. 
 
 Jolie filed for divorce Monday, citing “irreconcilable differences.” 
 
 She is seeking physical custody of the couple’s kids, TMZ said. She doesn’t want Pitt to have joint physical custody, just joint legal custody. He would get visitation, according to her filing. 
 
 Jolie is not seeking spousal support, the website said. 
 
 Brangelina’s French chateau, Miraval — where the couple married in August 2014 — has been quietly on the market for a few months, and locals were told they were selling it because they are breaking up, a source told The Post. 
 
 Jolie has hired top gun Laura Wasser as her lawyer. 
 
 The court documents list the couple’s date of separation as Sept. 15, 2016. 
 
 The couple have been together since 2004. 
 
 A rep for Cotillard did not immediately get back to The Post. ||||| It certainly seems like no Hollywood relationship can last without at least one accusation of cheating. 
 
 Angelina Jolie has reportedly filed for divorce from Brad Pitt after 2 years of marriage (and 10 years together), citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. 
 
 According to TMZ, Jolie couldn’t handle the way that Pitt parented their six children and asked for physical custody of the kids, only granting Pitt visitation.

 But, rumors of an affair have been swirling around the couple for a while. Basically every tabloid at the checkout line of any grocery store is littered with scandal about celebrities. Jolie and Pitt have been the victims of countless bogus news stories throughout the year. Pitt’s ex-wife Jennifer Aniston is often the target of pregnancy rumors too. There’s no escaping it. Most of us ignore it. 
 
 
 
 
 
 But what if they get it right? 
 
 In May, Hollywood Life, a noted gossip rag, ran a story that claimed Pitt was stepping out of his marriage and having an affair with his “Five Seconds of Silence” costar Marion Cotillard. 
 
 “For a while, the excitement of getting married masked their troubles,” Hollywood Life reported of Jolie and Pitt at the time, “but lately, they’ve been having explosive fights. Neither of them is sure that they can or should, hang on anymore.” 
 
 The tabloid claimed that a friend of the couple said that Jolie’s behavior was driving Pitt away. The insider claimed that Jolie “barely eats, she guzzles wine every night and she smokes constantly,” adding that for Pitt, “it’s been hard to watch the woman he loves waste away.”

 The story reported that Pitt denied any relationship with Cotillard other than a professional one. 
 
 Shortly after the news of the divorce broke, Page Six reported that an affair is exactly what pushed Jolie to her breaking point. 
 
 “She hired a private eye because she felt that he was fooling around with her on the set, and it turns out, he was. And that was the final straw,” a source claimed. Pitt and Cotillard were reportedly spotted canoodling all over London for the last few months. 
 
 The couple has been somewhat rocky lately since Jolie reportedly dreams of leaving Hollywood to focus on her humanitarian work, but Pitt longs for the spotlight. 
 
 “The older she gets, the more serious she becomes, and she is sick of the Hollywood thing,” the source said. “He wants to make movies. She doesn’t. It’s a fundamental difference. It’s how you live your life.” 
 
 No word if this rumored affair is real, but it sure seems suspicious.
– Those rumors you may have seen recently in the supermarket tabloids were true: Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt. TMZ confirms the news, and says Jolie filed Monday and lists the date of separation as Sept. 15. TMZ reports that there was no cheating involved (though Page Six claims Jolie busted Pitt having an affair with co-star Marion Cotillard), just a fight over how Pitt parents the couple's six children. Jolie is seeking sole physical custody of the kids, with Pitt being granted only visitation, a request TMZ calls "significant." An attorney for Jolie Pitt, Robert Offer, said the decision to divorce was made "for the health of the family," per AP. TMZ sources say that Jolie was "fed up" with Pitt's substance abuse, including pot and booze, combined with what she saw as anger issues. This tweet from BuzzFeed writer Anne Helen Petersen pretty much sums up general response: "I haven't heard a gasp go through the newsroom like the news of Jolie Pitt Divorce THIS ENTIRE ELECTION."
