Are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie recoupling?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are "consciously recoupling" after intense rehab and spiritual counselling, claims biographer Ian Halperin. Seven weeks ago, the actors were spotted outside a modest three-bedroom house in Beverly Hills. The pair stood face-to-face for the first time in 10 months. "Brad took the first step forward. Then they collapsed into each other's arms," says Halperin.

The stars went inside the home of a friend for a conversation. "There were a lot of tears. Nothing was left on the table. In that moment, they decided to make a fresh start. It was a 'come to Jesus meeting' that marked the beginning of a new phase in their relationship," says the biographer.

When the couple split last September amid toxic allegations of drink, drugs and a mid-air altercation between Pitt and their teenage son Maddox, the rift in their relationship seemed as final as it was sudden. But the meeting arranged by the couple's divorce negotiator gave them a chance to talk in the presence of a referee who helped them cut through the acrimony and recrimination.
