Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Updates: Ella Purnell Not Brad's Girlfriend, Source Claims
After rumors began to circulate claiming that Brad Pitt already moved on with another girl after his failed marriage with Angelina Jolie, the woman who was said to have caught his eye came forward to clarify the reports.
According to reports, the multi-awarded actor is currently smitten with British actress Ella Purnell and the two of them might soon start a romantic relationship together.
However, a source reportedly told Mirror Online that there is no truth to Pitt and Purnell's dating rumors. The source claimed that Purnell and Pitt are not seeing each other, and they have no relationship at this point. "It's completely made up," the source stated.
Previous report from InTouch Weekly claimed that Pitt first laid eyes on Purnell when she appeared in the 2016 film "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children." He was rumored to be very smitten with the actress, which is why he paved the way for her to be casted in his upcoming TV series titled "Sweetbitter" that will air on Starz.
Coincidentally, the 21-year-old actress once portrayed the role of the younger version of Pitt's estranged wife Jolie in her 2014 movie "Maleficent." The two women also reportedly have a striking physical resemblance.
Meanwhile, HollywoodLife claimed that Jolie already heard the rumors about Pitt and Purnell and it made her very upset.
A source told the tabloid that the mother of six was deeply affected with the news, especially since her ex-husband is 32 years older than his rumored new flame.
"The girl is so young, she's barely in her twenties for heaven's sake. She's been assured by a number of people that there's nothing to the rumors but it's still got her pretty upset. The age gap is the biggest factor. She'd be incredibly disappointed in Brad if he went down that road," the source also stated.
Reps from both Pitt, Purnell, and Jolie have yet to respond to the rumors about the speculated relationship.
