Pregnant Marion Cotillard denies causing Brangelina split

Associated Press

French actress Marion Cotillard is announcing her pregnancy and shooting down rumors of any romantic involvement with Brad Pitt.

“This is going to be my first and only reaction to the whirlwind news that broke 24 hours ago and that I was swept up into,” the Oscar-winning actress wrote in a statement posted Wednesday on Instagram.

 The actress, who won an Academy Award in 2007 for her performance as the legendary French singer Edith Piaf in “La Vie en Rose,” said that she is “not used to commenting on things like this nor taking them seriously but as this situation is spiraling and affecting people I love, I have to speak up.”

 Cotillard, who stars with Pitt in the upcoming World War II romantic drama “Allied,” affirmed her longtime relationship with actor Guillaume Canet. The couple are parents to a five-year-old son.

 She said in her Instagram post alongside a photo of a bird soaring through the sky that he is “the only one that I need” and they are expecting another child.

 “Firstly, many years ago, I met the man of my life, father of our son and of the baby we are expecting. He is my love, my best friend, the only one that I need.”

 “Secondly to those who have indicated that I am devastated, I am very well thank you. This crafted conversation isn’t distressing. And to all the media and the haters who are quick to pass judgment, I sincerely wish you a swift recovery.”

 Cotillard says she hopes Jolie and Pitt “will find peace in this very tumultuous moment.”

 Her statement was preceded not only by the media maelstrom over Jolie’s filing for divorce on Tuesday. It also came just hours after Paramount Pictures released a new trailer for “Allied” on Twitter.
