With news breaking of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's divorce, reputable US media outlets are now reporting that an on-set affair was the catalyst for the high-profile couple's split. 

Page Six is currently claiming that the Oscar-winning actress felt compelled to dump her partner of 12-years when she learned he was cheating on her with a co-star.

Angelina, 41, and Brad, 53, famously met on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith when the latter was still married to Jennifer Aniston. 

Page Six adds that a private investigator hired to monitor Mr Pitt while he filmed his latest movie in London confirmed Ms Jolie's worst fears

"She hired a private eye because she felt that he was fooling around with her on the set, and it turns out, he was. And that was the final straw," a source has told the media outlet.

The Inglourious Basterds star has been rumoured for months to have grown increasingly close to his Allied co-star, Marion Cotillard.

Mail Online furthermore reports that Angie had grown weary of her spouse's lifestyle and approach to parenting.

She is seeking full physical custody of their six kids, but is willing to grant him legal and visitation rights.

In the latest twist in Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's divorce saga, it is now being claimed that the Oscar-nominated actor dramatically cut his finger… and proceeded to write in blood on the wall. 

In an exclusive for TMZ, the website says it has seen court documents which detail the shocking incident. 

Seemingly, Mr Depp accused his 30-year-old wife of having an affair with Billy Bob Thornton. Flying into a rage, he accidently cut a chunk off the top of his finger. 

The 53-year-old then dipped his injured hand into blue paint – subsequently writing Mr Thornton's name on a nearby wall in a mixture of paint and blood. 

TMZ adds that the incident happened in March of last year, shortly after the couple married. 

"According to Amber's version of events Johnny, who was drunk and high on ecstasy, smashed several bottles and windows and also slammed a plastic phone against the wall unit," TMZ explains.

"She claims a piece of one of the items cut off a portion of his forefinger.

"Amber's version goes on… she's a painter and had dark blue paint in the room.

"She claims Johnny dipped what remained of his forefinger in the paint and then used the gnarly digit to write various words on the wall, including 'Billy Bob' and 'Easy Amber.'"

Billy Bob and Amber were filming together at the time – and she says Johnny accused her of affairs with other co-stars during their 14-month marriage.

Over the weekend, footage emerged of Mr Depp flying into a rage in Ms Heard's presence.

Video footage of a out-of-control Johnny Depp has now emerged – with the actor seen throwing a wine bottle and a glass months before Amber Heard filed for divorce.

In shocking footage – filmed prior to the May 21 incident in which Amber claims Mr Depp struck her – the duo can be seen in their kitchen.

Obtained by TMZ and seemingly filmed by Amber herself, she can be heard asking Johnny if he drank a bottle of wine as she tries to calm him down.

The footage begins with 53-year-old Johnny shouting "mother f**ker; mother f**ker," as his now-estranger wife asks him what happened. 

The 30-year-old actress furthermore says she is sorry for something – although she doesn't specify what she did.   

And after throwing a glass and wine bottle across the room, he seemingly becomes aware that she is filming their tense conversation – making a swipe at Amber's phone, trying to get it from her.

Johnny's people are now claiming that the content is a "set up," and is "heavily edited." The also claim that there are portions where Amber is seen smiling and egging him on. 

The pair – who met on the set of 2011 film The Rum Diary and were married for just 15 months – split in May.

To think that Calvin Harris and his former love Taylor Swift always seemed so perfectly in love.

But it seems the whole experience of dating one of the world's most famous women has put the Scottish DJ off celebrities for life.

That and he reckons the Trouble singer-songwriter – slim, blonde and tall – was never his type anyway.

In fact, sources close to him exclusively told TMZ that the 32-year-old is now after the polar opposite of Ms Swift: think a sultry, curvy brunette. 

The juicy deets? Well, they reckon that Calvin believes celebs are a narcissistic bunch, and all he wants is a normal girl. As for his type, he's thinking sexy Latina… a Sophia Vergara who is NOT famous.

The friends add that Mr Harris can't believe Tay-Tay dumped him so soon after his car accident.

He also says, according to the same sources, that the 26-year-old megastar was so obsessed with her life and career she felt put out whenever he had plans that conflicted with what she wanted him to do. 

So there you go!

We await Ms Swift's response…

It was only a couple of days ago that TMZ leaked a video of Jared Leto listening to Taylor Swift's 1989, and let's just say, he was less than complimentary. 

He seemed to be kinda into Blank Space but had zero-love for Welcome to New York. He is even heard at the end of the video saying, "F**k her."

Since then though, Jared took to Twitter to apologise to Tay and her fans saying, "The truth is I think @taylorswift13 is amazing + an incredible example of what's possible.

"If I hurt her or her fans my sincerest apologies."

But now, the Hollywood Reporter has published a statement from Jared describing his motivations to file a lawsuit against TMZ for leaking the footage. 

Jared's company Sisyphus Touring filed the lawsuit against the Warner Bros-owned gossip site, alleging copyright infringement.

Jared claims that the video was stolen and he contacted the TMZ team before it went up to urge them not to publish it. 

"Jared's lawsuit alleges the video was shot on Sept. 8 by a camerman he hired, who then gave the video to TMZ after being promised $2,000 for it.

"According to Jared's lawsuit, the videographer later asked TMZ to not publish the video, telling them he did not own the footage," reports HR

 "They chose to post it anyway," Jared said in his statement. "Let's be clear. This was stolen footage. This was an invasion of privacy. And it was both legally and morally wrong."

He's reportedly spent some €7m keeping his HIV positive status a secret, but Charlie Sheen may now be facing yet more financial – and indeed, legal – woes. 

The 50-year-old Hollywood star has been married three times and is resident in California. There, it is a crime for someone to have unprotected sex when that person knows he or she is infected with a "communicable disease" (such as HIV). 

If convicted, he'd face six months in jail. And if it was proven in court that he knowingly had sex with another person with the specific intent of transmitting the disease, then he could be looking at eight years in prison. 

Of course, Charlie has not specifically said if he's had unprotected sex or not. However, he's already settled several cases with people who were involved with the actor and who were unaware of his HIV status.

One settlement is said to have occurred as recently as last month.

Police sources have told TMZ that as of yet, no one has come forward yet complaining Mr Sheen exposed them to the virus.

The actor is father to five children by three different women: Cassandra, 30, with ex-girlfriend Paula Profit; Sam, 11, and Lola, 10, with ex-wife Denise Richards; and twins Bob and Max, 6, with ex-wife Brooke Mueller.

He was fired from Two And A Half Men last year after going on repeated drug and alcohol benders. Charlie then went on to have a very public breakdown, giving a semi-incoherent, now-infamous interview to ABC’s 20/20.

Today, Mail Online is reporting an exclusive which details Mr Sheen's many personal troubles.

Saying he has become a "recluse in his own home," the website adds that the actor is addicted to crack cocaine, which he would smoke while repeatedly watching his old movies.

Mail Online adds that both male and female porn stars were paid anything from €23,000 to €32,000 a night each to "hang out with him" at his upmarket home. He is said to have had sexual relations with numerous men and women working in the adult entertainment industry.

Radar Online says Mr Sheen has been HIV positive for four years, with The National ENQUIRER breaking the details of his cover-up yesterday.

Following his collapse on Tuesday evening, Lamar Odom has been in a serious condition in a Las Vegas hospital. 

Indeed, surrounded by those closest to him, the 6ft 10in basketball star was reportedly given only a 50/50 chance of survival.

However, there is now a glimmer of hope: TMZ reports that the 35-year-old's heart is actually on the mend. A series of make-or-break tests were carried out this morning and his heart function is seemingly significantly better than feared. 

"Doctors have told Lamar's friends and family this is a good sign of improvement, that a critical organ is responding," TMZ adds.

And medics are also hopeful he did not suffer brain damage – primarily because he was never deprived of oxygen for any significant length of time. 

To encourage better healing, those treating him have furthermore asked for "calm" at all times in Mr Odom's room. This means that while Khloe Kardashian, 31, is still by Lamar's bedside, very few others are allowed access.

The main fear expressed by his medical team, however? Lamar suffered a series of strokes while in hospital – the long-term impact of which have yet to determined.

"The light continues to shine. The light of love lives on; the love you had for Cathriona; the love she had for you."

A number of gifts were presented during the service including a sports jersey and a football to represent her love of Gaelic games, as well as family photos and make-up brushes.

Her step-sister, Sarah, gave an emotional eulogy, saying: “Cathriona had such an amazing capacity to love and to be loved.

"From growing up in Cappawhite, through to moving to Clonmel and finally settling in LA, love remained a constant in her life from beginning to end.”

However, she concluded: “Thankfully, love is not as fickle and unpredictable as life is.

“As long as you are loved, you are here. You are so loved.”

They're the hottest couple of the moment: a reportedly 'smitten' Scott Disick has been partying with teen model Lindsay Vrckovnik in Manhattan, as well as chilling out with her on the beach in Miami

And despite continually looking oh-so cosy together (including plenty of sun-lounger smooching) it seems that Lindsay is now in trouble… with her boyfriend back home in Canada (we can't say that we blame him either).

The 18-year-old had been staying at the swish Setai Hotel in Florida with Scott, 32, but is now telling friends that 'nothing happened'. Lindsay is also, understandably, trying to make amends with her man.

"The photos that surfaced have caused a problem between the two of them," TMZ reports this morning.

The website goes on to explain: "Whatever Lindsay claims she's having trouble convincing her BF for a few reasons.

"First, she and Scott didn't meet for the first time last week: they hung out at least once before, in July, at a party in Malibu."

Indeed, a snap has now surfaced taken THREE weeks ago of Ms Vrckovnik snuggling up to the reality TV star while wearing fur coats in a hotel bathroom.

TMZ adds: "The second problem Lindsay has explaining the pics where she's all nuzzly with Disick. She says the pics are 'misleading'."

Hmmm, we reckon her boyf will be particularly understanding if he takes her back.

Fans of Jim Carrey have been taking to social media this evening to express their shock at the passing of his girlfriend, Cathriona White.

The 28-year-old Tipperary-native had moved to Hollywood in 2009 to work as a make-up artist and had met the high-profile actor on a movie set in 2012.

Sadly, reports from the US this afternoon say that Ms White has taken her own life.

According to TMZ, she was found dead by friends last night and it has been furthermore reported that she had left a suicide note addressed to Mr Carrey.

Now, in a heartfelt statement, Jim has responded to the tragedy.

“I am shocked and deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona,” he said.

“She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled.”

The 53-year-old added: “My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her.

“We have all been hit with a lightning bolt.”

Just a week ago, the talented make-up artist had dined at Malibu's upmarket Nobu restaurant. 

Ms White also recently travelled to Canada – taking to Instagram to thank the Irish consulate in San Franciso for renewing her passport promptly. And earlier this year, she had shared a snap of her proudly wearing her Tipperary hurling jersey around LA. 

Her most recent post was from just five days ago when she uploaded a wind-swept black-and-white snap for her 7,500 followers. 

Underneath the image, people have this evening been leaving their condolences.

"Sweet Dreams @littleirishcat may flights of angels sing you to your rest xxx shocked," one sympathiser wrote.

The internet went mental over the weekend when rumour kicked-off that Jennifer Aniston's top-secret wedding dress had finally been revealed. 

Sadly however, it later emerged that the gown was not connected to the actress in any way – and that it had all been a big misunderstanding. 

Still, we shouldn't lose hope just yet – it seems that we may have indeed been given a sneak-peak of her wedding day attire before… on reality TV show, Say Yes To The Dress.

Say what, now!?

Yup, TMZ has done some stellar digging, and discovered an April airing of the hit show which reveals an awful lot. 

In it, a bride is seen trying on options in Manhattan's swish Kleinfeld boutique – eventually weighing-up the merits of a €7,600 gown from Mark Zunino

She initially feels the price-tag is too steep until, that is, an employee reveals: "I know the dress really well – I actually picked this dress for Jen Aniston to wear on her wedding day."

She adds: "In my head, this is Jennifer Aniston's dress."

The piece in question – a sweeping silk sheath gown  – is a classic, somewhat understated creation. 

It features a stunning deep illusion neckline and plunging back with buttons in silk crepe and lace, and has a chapel train and cap sleeves.

The gown is also an exclusive to the Chelsea bridal boutique. Indeed, the upmarket outlet is the exclusive stockist of pieces from the Mark Zunino bridal label, which was founded in 2011.

TMZ has now asked Kleinfeld for a comment, and the website says it is currently waiting to hear back. Mail Online approached the designer himself, to which a representative replied: "We can neither confirm nor deny that we designed the gown for Jennifer Aniston's special day.

"We can confirm that we did do sketches of wedding dress options for her."

Interestingly, LA-native Mr Zunino has already dressed Jen's BFF Courteney Cox for the red carpet.

Jennifer, 46, married actor Justin Theroux, 44, in a top-secret ceremony on August 5 at their €20m LA home. They have been together for four years, and engaged since August 2012.
