Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie: Wedding conspiracy

A French mayor on Tuesday denied a report in celebrity magazine Hello that quoted him saying Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who own a chateau nearby, were due to get married this weekend.

The A-list Hollywood couple own the 17th-century Chateau Miraval in southeastern France, and celebrity publications have been rife with rumours in recent weeks that they were planning to wed soon.
 
"I don't know who they are," said Michael Latz, mayor of the village of Correns where the couple dubbed "Brangelina" have their chateau, when asked if he had spoken to Hello.

He said he was not aware of any wedding, and added: "It's nonsense. I've had 50 phone calls and I am telling everyone to get lost because this is tireseome and irritates me.
 
"I am going to pursue them (Hello) for misleading statements."

Hello magazine reported on its website on Tuesday that the mayor had said Jolie and Pitt would marry this weekend, although it did not quote him directly. 

There were reports that preparations for a huge party at the French home of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had sparked speculation that they were secretly preparing to marry coming weekend.

Last weekend the media went berserk writing about the wedding taking place in the Chateau.

The bride and the groom have ordered for matching wedding rings.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie probably won’t risk taking their wedding rings off – not after commissioning two £500,000 bands from their jeweller Robert Procop.

The former boss of British jewellers Asprey & Garrard has been busy producing matching bands for them at the Grand Hotel du Cap Ferrat, in the south of France. And now they’re done and ready to go.

A source said: “Robert’s been busy all year making Brad and Angie’s wedding rings.

“They are matching rose gold bands with a tablet-cut diamond in them and their vows to each other engraved in them.

“You can’t see it with the naked eye but they both know they’re there.”
 
Jolie, 37, and Pitt, 48, announced their engagement in April but have not publicly set a wedding date. The couple have been together since 2005 and are raising six children.
