ANGELINA: LIFE AFTER BRAD
Say Sayonara, Brad - Angelina is moving on!
After a bitter spat that prompted Angie and Brad Pitt to pull the plug on their once-committed relationship, she'll be packing up for an extended stay in Europe, to adopt another child, sources now say.
"Angie is throwing her energy into building a life apart from Brad," an insider told The ENQUIRER.
"Angie is already packing her and the kids' clothes and personal effects for an extended stay in Europe while she and Brad work out child custody arrangements and the financial terms of their split."
The 34-year-old mother of six is set to begin production soon on the spy thriller The Tourist which will film in Prague and Venice.
And she'll rely on her brother, kissy-poo 36-year-old James, to help during the adoption process, said the source.
"Angie's strategy is to decompress for a while at the couple's leased estate in southern France," said the insider.
As The ENQUIRER recently reported, Brad and Angelina's nearly five-year relationship buckled under months of stress, including a failed suicide attempt by Angelina and a frightening collapse as the 5-foot-7 beauty's weight dipped to a stick-thin 104 pounds.
In December, after Angelina temporarily kicked the 46-year-old Inglorious Basterds star out of their Los Angeles home because of his boozing and hashish use, she physically attacked him when he made a cheating confession about ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.
Soon after, during a fight over dinner on Jan. 6 in New York City, Angie rejected Brad's ultimatum that she seek professional treatment for her emotional demons and physical issues.
"Angelina feels her life with Brad has been toxic.
"She's looking forward to a new beginning," continued the insider.
Family, Friends Don't Know If Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt Split Rumor Is True
Don't write off Brangelina so fast.
Several sources close to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie yesterday denied reports they are splitting up - even as the Hollywood power couple remained mum.
"I was told it's not true," a source close to the couple told the Daily News. "[Brad and Angelina] are very secretive. But I was told it's not true."
"Everything is fine," another source told People magazine's Web site.
The Sun of London reported today that Pitt's brother, Doug, recently urged him to end the relationship.
"They barely spend time together and when they do it is very fraught. They want different things from life," a source close to Pitt's family told the paper.
The breakup drama started when London's News of the World reported the pair have met with California divorce lawyers - even though they're not married - to hash out an amicable division of their vast fortune and custody of their six kids.
A close friend of Pitt told author Ian Halperin that the hunky actor has been preparing to bail from his five-year relationship with the pillow-lipped Jolie for at least six months.
"His relationship with Angie is over," the pal told Halperin, author of the book "Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie."
Buzz about a Brangelina breakup has been circulating for months. The National Enquirer reported that Pitt and Jolie had a heated argument Jan. 6 at Alto restaurant in midtown Manhattan. But just three days earlier, a source told The News, the duo shared a "pleasant" meal of roasted chicken at Le Perigord on 52nd St.
"They looked happy - very, very happy," said a manager at the restaurant.
Reps for Pitt and Jolie did not return calls for comment yesterday. Ruthie Richardson, an aunt of Jolie's who lives in Texas, said she believed her niece and Pitt were still a couple.
