Breaking News - High Profile Couple Getting Divorced

United States
September 20, 2016 10:13am CST
Well, I just saw this on Facebook - a post from our local TV station in Chattanooga. I am going to assume it is true but it is a shock. It seems Angelina Jolie and her husband Brad Pitt will be getting a divorce. It says the divorce is being initiated by Jolie. According to the post by WRCB-TV, TMZ made the announcement. I don't really care much for celebrity news, but I really thought these two would make it for life. It goes to show, you just don't know.

They have done much together that is good for the world and I hope that continues even if they part.

It's difficult to think two getting divorced would work together after - except for Lucy and Ricky Ricardo many years ago.

Who cares? They will probably get back together and adopt a little old lady from Mars.

First MEN are from Mars...women from Venus. Second...how do you know that the lady from Mars is old, that too "little". lol On a serious note, and this is a doubt about English...when you mention "little old" why shouldn't I interpret it as not too old just a little old...kinda. I am just being curious and obtuse as usual.

@vandana7 They are always adopting kids from Third World nations so I was just being funny and let them adopt something different this time.

I had been hearing rumors about this for quite some time. Sad. I wonder if it was Brad's fault. How can a woman really trust a man who cheats? He cheated with her so what does she expect? Maybe she got tired of him. Who knows what goes on behind closed doors?

@AbbyGreenhill .....She is a little different. Could mean a lot of things. Fighting and such perhaps.

I just heard on the radio - she said the break-up is 'for the health of the family' whatever in the world that means.

I will be honest. I did not like Pitt divorcing Aniston. The blondes were made for each other kinda. Anybody who interferes in a marriage cannot be happy ... my thinking...and there is a saying to that effect also (beech mein aane wala beech mein hi jayega). Meaning the one who comes in between (wedded pair) will not offer lasting relationship. Having said that, there are kids...

Weren't most of the kids her's before the marriage anyway? She is a strange strange person. I think a lot of people (us regular people) turned against Pitt when he left Jennifer.

I'm a little shocked, but not sad. He cheated on Jen with Angie, so I think karma finally just caught up with them. Poor kids though.

The news is saying he cheated on Angie, but no details were given.

Public figures such as those two - the media is having a field day.

After he left his wife for her, and then had and adopted all of those kids, I too thought it was going to last. They were even together so long before they married. I feel for all of the children, six of them I think.

Three of the kids are their natural kids - the others are adopted. They were together twelve years.

That has been announced a lot in the past, but maybe it's true this time. Anyway, those two have made some positive marks in the world. Largely hands-on. I too hope they will continue their philanthropy.

This time she means it since she initiated it and said it 'for family health'...meaning don't ask any more.

I am not surprised by this.I am surprised how long that this marriage last.I do not care fo Ms.Jolie. Brad I like.There is something about her.Way back as she had a couple of failed marriages. I liked Jennifer Aniston much better and was so sorry that they broke up. All I can say.Yes,not surprised.A pattern of her.Though she last for some time with him. Not sure who is the blame.She said and He said.

I also preferred Jennifer Anintson too. I was hoping her and Brad would end up back together. I have never been a fan of Angelina Jolie.

I bet Jennifer is laughing out loud at this - and I don't blame her. She got a raw deal from him. Angelina is way to strange...so is her father.

I heard they were having problems for quite some time now. There are not too many celebrity marriages that survive.

The morning TV here has been all about the divorce of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. I don“t trust reporters, but they said that Pitt had been cheating on her.

not really surprised when actors get divorced, the ones that seem to make it are married to people who arent in the same field at all

I heard the divorce is because she is tired of him sitting around, smoking pot and losing his temper frequently. If that is the case, I can see why those problems could become an issue.
