In The Box Seat: Fresh from the Jolie-Pitts cheering and celebrating The Indianapolis Saints onto victory in a private box in Miami last night; Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have announced that they are suing The News of The World for false reporting about their relationship.
The BBC reports: ” a story published on 24 January, the paper said the couple would separate and had agreed the division of assets and custody of their children.
“The couple’s lawyer, Keith Schilling, called the “widely republished” allegations “false and intrusive”.
“He added the paper had failed to meet “reasonable demands” for an apology.
“He said the pair had also asked for a retraction of the allegations, which had subsequently been “widely republished by mainstream news outlets”.
“It is believed that this is the first time, Hollywood’s reigning couple have ever sued a tabloid. Star Magazine must be shaking in their boots right now, who runs fake covers on Brad and Angie every other week. Author Ian Halperin must be hiding too about now, with his false allegations book against the couple; or he could just be staring a gift horse in the mouth instead with this law suit. :) Angie is so kind.
Finally, St John‘s fashion label must be kicking themselves that they didn’t resign Jolie to their label, now that the Saints have won the Super Bowl. An interesting news, sports, legal day today in the US media. Game on!
