Is it really over between hollywood couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are rumoured to have split, according to reports. The Sunday Times says the couple have already signed legal papers to pave the way for a separation involving Rs 1,500 crore as well as joint custody of their six children. “The document was signed in early January,” a source told a British tabloid. The contract, signed by Pitt, 46, and Jolie, 34, is similar to a prenuptial agreement, reports a hollywood website.

However, there is still no confirmation from either of the couple’s representatives. Brad is reported to have full access to the couples three biological children, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne, as well as their three adopted children, Maddox, Zahara and Pax.

Rumours have been circulating for months, if not years, that all has not been well in the Brangelina camp. The pair were significantly absent at the Golden Globes last week, despite Brad’s film Inglourious Basterds being up for an award. He was also spotted out solo on Friday at the Hope For Haiti Now earthquake relief fundraising event. The Hollywood golden couple fell for each other on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith in 2004, though Angelina denied breaking up Brad’s marriage to Friends star Jennifer Aniston. Brad then split from Jennifer in January 2005 after four-and-a-half years of marriage.

Angelina has previously said though that marriage to ple. And earlier this month, they had a family outing to see a theatre production of Mary Poppins in New York.

There have been the giveaways, too, of the the trouble brewing within the marriage. On Jan 6, the National Enquirer reported that Pitt and Jolie had a heated argument inside the Alto restaurant in Midtown. The magazine said Pitt demanded Jolie get psychiatric help for the depression she has suffered from since the death of her mother three years ago.

Brad wouldn’t happen until gay marriage was legal in the States. Talking last month to Germany’s Das Neue magazine, the Changeling star said: “I doubt that fidelity is absolutely essential for a relationship,” she said. “It’s worse to leave your partner and talk badly about him afterwards. Neither Brad nor I have ever claimed that living together means to be chained together. We make sure that we never restrict each other.”

In public, the couple managed to present a happy picture for long. Brangelina have been relaxed and happy the last few times they’ve been photographed together. They also donated more than Rs 74.4 crore to the Haitian earthquake.
