Brad Didn't Tell Jen About Baby

Brad Pitt did not alert ex-wife Jennifer Aniston about Angelina Jolie's pregnancy, says the publicist for the former Friends star.

Speaking to TV's Extra, Aniston's rep, Stephen Huvane, corrected reports that Pitt had spoken to his former wife (of 4 1/2 years) before PEOPLE broke the story on Wednesday that he's expecting a baby with Jolie.

"All the reports about phone calls between Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are all made-up lies," Huvane told Extra.

The baby is due this summer, PEOPLE reports in its latest cover story.

"Yes, I'm pregnant," Jolie told a charity aid worker in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Monday. The actress and UN Goodwill Ambassador is in the Caribbean country to shoot a movie, The Good Shepherd with Matt Damon, and to work with Yele Haiti, a charity for the empowerment of Haitian citizens.

Representatives of both stars confirmed the pregnancy.

This will be the first biological child for Jolie, 30, who is already the mother of son Maddox, 4, whom she adopted from Cambodia, and daughter Zahara, 1, adopted from Ethiopia in July.

Pitt, 42, who recently took steps to adopt Maddox and Zahara, including changing their names to Jolie-Pitt, has talked of wanting a family for years. He and Aniston had no children.

Well, that could be a crappy thing for him to not tell her, but who knows? Maybe they don't speak, in which case it would be lousy of him to call and tell her that.

But I don't like him anyway. Chat Icon

See I agree but, from the way it's written it's like Brads "people" are trying to make off that he did.

I don't think he should have to tell her.

How would any of us feel if we were having a baby and our DH had to hurry up and tell his ex before she found out from someone else?

We'd be on here posting "isn't it wrong for my DH to worry about how his EX feels about us having a baby?"

I don't know about Aniston but I wouldn't want that phone call. Hearing the rumor before the story broke would have been more than enough for me and she probably did.

But we don't have the National Enquirer calling us being the first to tell us something.

I think he could have made an effort to get word to Jen personally. Get someone to hand deliver a note to her if they are not speaking.

I think the issue is less about what Jen thinks about it and more just showing class and alerting her personally before she has a camera thrown in her face asking her to comment about it.

BTW: We didn't care what my husband's ex-wife thought about our engagement but he still told her for two reasons:
1. she was still calling him a few times a year and leaving messages about stupid things
2. despite her being a total wacko we still thought it would be nice of us to tell her first hand instead of her hearing it throught the rumour mill.

Re: Brad Didn't Tell Jen About Baby

I feel bad for jen and dont care for Brad ( im pretty sure he dumped her for angelina even though they always denied it)
BUT, I don't think he has to call her to tell her something like that.
I think it would of been nice and considerate if he did, but he didnt HAVE to..

Re: Brad Didn't Tell Jen About Baby

I think it must be so hard for jen because she will always have to hear about him
At least when you break up with your boyfriend ihe isnt on tv with his new gf and you dont have to see pictures of them together all the time

You have to take things with a grain of salt guys... Only 2 people know the truth.

From todays NYP:

Jennifer Aniston's camp is denying it, but we hear Brad Pitt warned her last week that Angelina Jolie is expecting his child. All the same, "Jennifer is devastated," says our source.

Yes, but when my dad left my mom for another woman, everything they were doing wasn't all over the news. When news broke that Angelina was pregnant, CNN kept breaking into the Alito hearings every 1/2 hour or so to announce it. There was no way to avoid it, where my mom doesn't ask and my brother and I don't tell her anything about what is going on in my dad's life. It probably would have been a nice move to have someone, even a mutual friend, tell her before it hit the news. JMO.

I don't think he has to tell her anything. But to be human about it, he should be sure that she knows through a mutual friend that it's confirmed & that the press will be finding out about it soon enough.

agreed!! especially since the timing seems off to me. if their divorce was finalized in October, and Angelina is due in the summer (even assuming late August) - wouldn't she have gotten pregnant before or at the same time their divorce was finalized???????

But that is the life they have chosen...
Maybe people have gotten divorced and had children with other people...

life does go on....
Jennifer isn't the first to go through this..

Re: Brad Didn't Tell Jen About Baby

I dont think he really needed to, it was his EX wife ( well to be) But because of the public knowledge of their every move, I think it would have been a nice thing, or a human thing to spare her from seeign it on the cover of People. I think anyone in his situation could have easily had her know to spare her some hurt...
