In this thread I'm not gonna copy and paste articles I come across on different websites. Just let me summarize the situation and you'll realize that we cannot know anything about whether such rumors are true or not.
According to a British tabloid(I don't know which one)Brad and Angie are said to be about to split and to have signed official documents as far as the custody of the children is concerned. This story was even mentioned in the very serious Belgian newspaper "le Soir" (one of the best and most reliable of the country). Also mentioned in a free Luxembourgish paper (l'Essentiel).
On the other hand JustJared and CNN say that this is not true and that everything is fine. If they haven't been seen a lot together recently, it's just because they are very busy.
My conclusion is as follows : once again the purpose of the media is to sell as many copies as they can or to broadcast special reports, of course not to inform people but to MAKE MONEY. It is sad but it's like that : whether it's about Angie, Haïti, plane crashes, the US president, and so on, and so on ... what matters is to make money. We hear so many things, impossible of course for the ordinary citizen to check them. We live in an overmediatized world and we are literaly "drowning" in an ocean of news items.

Inside Brad & Angelina’s Meeting with Lawyer
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie did meet with a lawyer last month, but it wasn’t to work out details on a split.
The couple spent time with a law firm in L.A. in December, a source tells Life & Style, “where they worked out terms of a legal document similar to a prenup.”
Brad and Angie signed the document in January, which means the couple will share money, assets and custody of the kids (who would all live with Angelina in the event of their parents’ breakup).
The source says that there was no talk of a split at the meeting.

Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie Sue Over Split Story
By Simon Perry and Mary Green
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have issued a legal statement asserting that they are not about to split.
The couple's lawyer, Keith Schilling, said Monday that the pair had commenced proceedings against Britain's News of the World for making "false allegations about their relationship" – and said that the reports are not true.
"We can confirm unequivocally ... that the allegations published by the News of the World are false as well as intrusive," said Schilling in a statement.
The U.K. paper had reported that Jolie, 34, and Pitt, 46, had met with a divorce lawyer and were headed for a split.
According to Schilling, Sorrell Trope, who was identified in some media reports as the lawyer representing the couple, submitted a statement saying, "I have had no contact from them ... Angelina Jolie and/or Brad Pitt. I have never met your ... clients or had any involvement with either of them."
When news broke of a possible impending split between the superstar couple, sources close to them told PEOPLE that the story was not true.
On Sunday, Pitt and Jolie publicly showed their affection for each other by kissing, cuddling and cheering when they took son Maddox to the Super Bowl.
