Over the weekend, the British tabloids got a hold of a story saying that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had met with an attorney to discuss the future of their children, since they were not married and provisions had to be made. This, in turn, led to speculation that they were on the verge of breaking up – a breakup in which Jolie’s affair with singer Lady Gaga might have played a part, Ian Halperin claims.

Ian Halperin is, for those who are not familiar with his name, an investigative journalist that also covered the life of Princess Diana and Michael Jackson. Just recently, Halperin came out with a book titled “Brangelina Exposed,” which, as its name implies, exposed the Brangelina couple for a pair of hypocrites manipulating the public. Now, Halperin claims to have knowledge that Jolie’s infidelity might have also played a part in her recent (rumored) separation from Pitt.

“A source close to the actress told IUC late last night that there was recently a secret rendezvous between the two at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel that lasted all night. Apparently, Angie is obsessed with Lady Gaga. Still, I reserve judgment on this one until I see more proof. Developing…” Halperin writes on IanUndercover, his official website. So far, as one can easily imagine, this tidbit has been welcome with nothing but sneers and laughter. In fact, some even says a more likely pairing would have been that of Jolie with Madonna.

Officially, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are still an item, unnamed friends are telling the media. However, the thing that started all this rumor frenzy, the meeting with their attorney on money issues, did take place – it just didn’t happen for the reasons named by the tabloid media. Far from breaking up, the two stars are thinking ahead and planning for their children’s future, all six of them (Brad and Angie share custody of 6 kids, 3 adopted and 3 biological).

“The power couple did indeed visit a high-powered L.A. lawyer last week – but only to cover their assets. ‘They aren’t married, so they need to protect their children and property in case there’s a rift in the future,’ a source says. That certainly makes sense, considering the two are worth a whopping $330 million combined,” the NY Daily News was saying a couple of days ago, as we also noted.
