The phone sex session with Angelina Jolie that ended Brad Pitt's marriage to Jennifer Aniston was just the latest in an intense relationship that had been raging for nearly a year. The trouble begins several months ago, when Brad came a bit closer with Jolie, during the shooting of a movie!


The News of the World broke the news in October that Brad and Jen's marriage was doomed.
We can now reveal it hit the rocks last February when Brad and Angelina played a married couple in the film Mr & Mrs Smith. A source close to the couple told us: "When Brad and Angelina's relationship reached a head over the summer, they were so close they were acting as if it was ‘the real thing.'

"They'd speak on the phone all the time—always speaking in hushed tones. There was no hiding their affection for each other.
"She also has the balls to call if she likes someone. She has this ‘don't-give-a-damn' attitude which is infectious. It's not hard to fall for her."

It was just such a call at Brad and Jen's Beverly Hills home that ended their marriage.
Our source revealed: "Jennifer listened in on the conversation via another house extension. I don't know if she accidentally picked up the phone or deliberately did that. Either way, she went ballistic.

"It has never been easy being married to the man who is held up as the sexiest, most desirable man in the world.
"But Jennifer has become especially jealous of Angelina.
"When she confronted Brad, he wasn't going to take it any more. He realised it was the end of the line for their marriage and he told Jennifer as much."

The break-up came amid rumours the marriage was in trouble over starting a family.

Our source told us: "Brad never made any secret of the fact he wanted a family, but Jennifer refused, preferring to concentrate on building her movie career.
"Angelina, on the other hand, is very maternal as well as gorgeous—and Brad was completely drawn for all those reasons.
"The way Angelina makes her adopted son Maddox her number one priority really melted him. She simply stole Brad's heart."

Jennifer, 35, was in Europe promoting her film Along Came Polly with Ben Stiller when Brad began shooting Mr & Mrs Smith with sultry Tomb Raider star Angelina.

A source on the set witnessed the chemistry between twice-married Angelina, 29, and Brad, 41, at a barbecue she threw for 20 film crew. The insider told us: "There was loads of delicious food but Brad and Angelina were so into each other they didn't eat one thing.

"Brad and Angelina sat together, apart from everyone else. They were very close and held hands continuously. At one point he came up to Angelina in the kitchen, whispered in her ear and kissed her on the cheek.

"He then walked out of the room, slouched across the kitchen-top and gave her this look which said, ‘I'm going to have some of that'.

"Not long afterwards, Brad came down with flu. The next week, Angelina came down with the same thing.

"Brad sent her flowers and a card in which he wrote, ‘To the missus. Oops'—because she had obviously caught what he had from being in close contact.

"On set, the sexual chemistry between the two of them was embarrassing for everyone else. Tongues started wagging when Angelina refused to wear the protective flesh-coloured underwear actors use for sex scenes.

"She told the wardrobe girl, ‘I won't need that.' The two of them filmed their sex scenes fully naked, which is unusual.

"She certainly didn't make a secret of her feelings for him. At one point she said, ‘I wish he wasn't married!'"

Even though Angelina has always denied an affair with Brad, she admitted she enjoyed kissing him in Mr & Mrs Smith.

She said: "Brad and I play husband and wife so there's some kissing and all I'll say is, he's a great kisser. He certainly knows what he's doing."

By April 29 the intensity of their relationship was clear to all who saw them together at LA hotel The Standard.

A source reveals: "They didn't try to hide. They were making out in the corner in full view of everyone."

The source added: "Brad and Angelina were so sure of their feelings for each other they planned to go to Italy together, where Brad was filming Ocean's Twelve with George Clooney, buy a home there and not return to LA. But their plans were scuppered when Jennifer went to Italy with Brad."

On September 13 and 14 Brad and Angelina had to reshoot scenes for Mr & Mrs Smith.
They stayed in rooms 612 and 615 of the Ramada Hotel in Victorville, southern California.
The hotel confirmed the rooms are adjoining and that they were given orders to seal the floor so no one else had access to it.
Last month Jennifer joined Brad in London where he was publicising Ocean's Twelve.
But the couple were already leading separate lives and secretly took different flights home to LA.

Last week Friends co-star Courteney Cox Arquette persuaded Jennifer and Brad to join her and husband David in the Caribbean to give their marriage one last go. But just 24 hours into the break in Anquilla, the couple knew it was beyond saving.

On Friday Brad and Jen's publicists released a statement confirming the split.The couple flew to LA from Anquilla yesterday by private jet.
