Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have done a great job of putting on a glamorous front for the public lately. It’s no surprise. They are both award-winning actors. Below the glossy facade, though, trouble lurks.
The latest issue for the couple is Angelina Jolie’s betrayal of Brad Pitt, an act that has been described as potentially the "straw that broke the camel’s back" when it comes to their troubled relationship.
Jolie had promised Pitt that she would put her career in film away, at least until her six kids were older. Now it looks as if she’s going back on that promise, a move that might have devastating consequences.
Jolie has taken the lead role in "The Tourist," leaving Pitt to fume.
"Angelina has a history of saying one thing and then doing the exact opposite," an insider told In Touch. "She says she wants to put her family first - but when a good role comes along, she forgets all that."
The insider said that Pitt had urged Jolie to not take the role, and she eventually promised him she would not. But in the end, Jolie changed her mind and snapped up the part, which became available after Charlize Theron left the movie.
"Brad thinks she’s being selfish," said the insider.
Another friend said that Jolie decided to take the movie "as a way not to dwell" on her failing relationship with Brad Pitt. In the past Angelina Jolie has found that putting herself into her work is a way to keep her busy and positive.
"Pretending to be someone else for 14 hours a day makes her problems seem less real," said the friend.
Whether that’s true this time remains to be seen. According to the report, Jolie and Pitt are hitting a low point in their relationship.
