Did Angelina Jolie hire private eye to spy on Brad Pitt?

By Alexandra Heilbron on September 20, 2016 | 6 Comments


Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt wedding dayAccording to the New York Post‘s Page Six gossip column, Angelina Jolie hired a private investigator to spy on her husband, Brad Pitt, because she suspected him of cheating on her. A source told the newspaper that she believed he was messing around with French actress Marion Cotillard, his co-star on the movie Allied.

The source said: “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.”

However, Cotillard’s people deny the claims and say she’s still very much in love with her long-term boyfriend, actor/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 is quoted as saying.

Another source told The Post that Angelina was sick and tired of constantly arguing with Brad about their lifestyle. She wanted to have a lower profile and instead concentrate on their family and her humanitarian work, while Brad enjoys the Hollywood party life.

“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.’’

The French chateau they bought together, Miraval, has apparently been up for sale for several months, and locals were told at that point it was being sold because they were breaking up, said the source. Miraval is where the couple were married in August 2014.

Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston when he met Angelina on the set of the movie Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2004.

Does the old adage apply in this case? Once a cheater always a cheater? Sound off below. ~Alexandra Heilbron

    Cheated on Jennifer, now on Angelina. Men are so stupid. But here’s the thing. If he cheated on Jennifer with Angelina, then she knew he was a cheat. It was only a matter of time…

    Brad’s an unfaithful jerk and Angelina’s an idiot. They deserve each other and all the grief of this public split.

    Yeah, I don’t think she’d cheat on Guillaume.

    Karma will not be denied. Before Angie blew up Jennifer and Brad, she pulled the same stunt on Billy bob Thornton and his then live-in love Laura Dern.

    This is the quote from Laura when she found out about BB and Angie:
    How cruel was it? Dern says, “I left our home to work on a movie, and while I was away, my boyfriend got married, and I’ve never heard from him again.”

    So if anyone thinks Angelina deserves a pity party…think again! What goes around, comes around and payback really is the biggest b*tch! 🙂

    Marriage is a complex institution which involves different lifestyles from each partner. Therein lies one of their differences and people do change when they ger older. Priorities at 25 are not the same at 40. Hollywood men tend to be arrogant because they have it all especially the A listers and they cheat because they can. Making movies also doesn’t help either with long times on location, sexy scenes and time away from family. I am furious with Brad and because 6 children have lost their live in father.

    I think once again we should say that karma is a bitch. And as said on a TV show Friends: “once a cheater, always a cheater” I hate Brad and Angie for what they did to Jen, it is unforgiveable so I think the divorce between Angie and Brad was pure karma and they both deserved it.
