Brangelina holiday's off as things go from Brad to worse

The fairytale romance between Mr & Mrs Smith stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has reportedly hit the doldrums. Now I can reveal the couple have cancelled a family holiday, further fuelling speculation of a rift.

According to one friend, Brad, 43, who is working on no fewer than 13 movies with his production company, cancelled the holiday to Lake Mohawk, New Jersey, because of work commitments.

"Angie is really upset and has demanded that Brad cuts back on his work schedule," says a friend.

"There's a lot of tension between them. They were meant to be going away as a family and had spoken about teaching the kids to fish and sail.

"Angie pinned a sign up in the kitchen that said, 'Success is a beast, it puts the emphasis on the wrong thing. I prefer to look within'."

I hear Angelina, 32, who had purchased a £1,500 guitar for Brad to take on the holiday, was so miffed that she flew to Marrakesh alone for a wrap-up party for The Bourne Ultimatum.

The friend added: "Angelina was so thin it looked like the bangles she was wearing weighed more than her."

Meanwhile, Jolie has talked down rumours of trouble at home.

In an interview with Total Film magazine, she described Pitt as "socially aware", adding: "We actually argue politics at home. It's the only time we argue."
