She married Pitt on July 29, 2000, in a lavish Malibu wedding. For years their marriage was considered the rare Hollywood success, but on January 7, 2005 they announced their separation. There were rumors that Pitt had fallen for actress Angelina Jolie when they were shooting the film Mr. and Mrs. Smith. However, both Jolie and Pitt denied the rumors, with Jolie declaring in an interview in 2005, “To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.” __
