Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt promote their new
film 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' at Showest in Las Vegas on, March 17,
2005. |
It's true — again? Despite denials of a romance between Brad Pitt and
Angelina Jolie, new photographs show the couple on a beach in Africa,
according to published reports.
The reports said the photos show Pitt, Jolie and her 3-year-old son
Maddox playing in the sand and strolling on the beach. Pitt and Jolie
aren't shown being affectionate with each other.
Cindy Guagenti, Pitt's publicist, would not comment Tuesday on the
reports.
Pitt, 41, separated from his wife, Jennifer Aniston, in January. At the
time of their breakup, there was speculation in the tabloids of a romance
between Pitt and the 29-year-old Jolie, who star in the upcoming film "Mr.
and Mrs. Smith."
In its April 18 issue, Us Weekly proclaimed on its cover, "It's True!"
over separate photos of Pitt and Jolie. In an article inside, Us quoted
employees of a California hotel who claimed they saw the two actors being
affectionate.
Guagenti has denied the report, saying "this particular story is
completely untrue."
Aniston recently filed for divorce from Pitt after
4 1/2 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable
differences. Jolie was previously married
to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton.
Over the weekend, Pitt, who is a special ambassador in Nelson Mandela's
fight against HIV and AIDS, was in Ethiopia visiting orphans of the AIDS
pandemic that is devastating Africa, a spokesman said Tuesday.
The star of "Troy" and "Fight Club" also visited projects offering AIDS
treatment as part of the ONE campaign, which strives to improve trade and
debt terms for poor countries and provide lifesaving drugs for people
infected with the HIV virus.
His trip was organized by DATA — a Washington-based lobby group
co-founded by the rock star Bono.
Pitt was in Ethiopia from Saturday to late Monday.
