Perez Hilton has hit out at Angelina Jolie's lawyers on social media after he received an email claiming the 'Maleficent' star wanted to sue him for his coverage of her split from Brad Pitt.

The lawyers for the 41-year-old actress - Bert Fields and Priya Sapori - have emailed the celebrity blogger to ask him to change certain aspects of his report on her split from Brad Pitt, or else he will face legal action.

Posting a screenshot of his email response on Instagram, the 37-year-old star wrote: "In other news, #AngelinaJolie's lawyers at Greenberg Glusker have just threatened to sue me for my coverage of her split from #BradPitt. ME!! I have always been one of Angelina Jolie's loudest and strongest supporters and defenders!!!!! This was my email back to Angelina's lawyers, #BertFields and#PriyaSapori. Glad I'm not running for president!! (sic)"

And the outspoken star isn't going down without a fight, as his response to the 'Maleficent' star's lawyers said he wasn't "changing anything" about his article, and that he demanded an "apology" from Angelina herself.

The response read: "Please get this message to Angelina Jole herself. She KNOWS ... I have ALWAYS been a huge fan and SUPPORTER of hers!! I am livid!!! Unless she wants to turn me into an enemy, I want an apology right now. I am not changing anything. If you want to sue me, my lawyer is Brian Freedman and he is CC'd. I did nothing illegal. We stand 100% behind our reporting. F**k YOU. And suck my d**k! (sic)"

Meanwhile, Angelina recently swapped Malibu for the Hidden Hills in California, as she moved homes to a lavish new estate that boasts two swimming pools. The new pad has plenty of room for her six children - Maddox, 15, Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Vivienne and Knox, eight - whom she recently secured physical custody of in a temporary custody deal.

It was previously claimed that Angelina decided to end her two-year marriage to the 52-year-old actor because she was worried their constant fighting was not fair to the children.

An insider said: "[Angelina] did try to make it work, but her kids come first, and she couldn't let them see Mommy and Daddy like this. The fighting got worse, and they disagreed a lot about parenting and a lot of things."
