BRAD'S HAPPY NEWS: JEN'S HAVING A BABY!
Hollywood’s golden couple are starting a family together
Just months after secretly reigniting their romance, sources tell Woman’s Day Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt are expecting a much longed-for child together.
Friends say the thrilling and surprising news that Jen, 49, is pregnant is the real reason the rekindled exes went public with their relationship so soon.
“It’s a complete miracle beyond their wildest dreams,” a source close to the couple tells Woman’s Day exclusively. “After she turned 40, Jen had almost accepted children just weren’t on the cards for her.”
The exciting announcement comes after Brad and Jen’s good friend and fellow actor George Clooney encouraged them to stop hiding their love and share their romance with their fans who have, for years, longed for the couple to reunite.
“Jen is usually pretty social, but her friends haven’t seen her drink much in the last few weeks,” our source reveals.
“She’s usually the first person to organise margarita nights with the girls, but in the past two weeks the only social events she’s agreed to have been the non-boozy ones. She’s also got this amazing glow about her, but whenever anyone mentions it she just says it’s because she’s being healthy and not drinking at the moment.”
TWIST OF FATE
Even friends who haven’t been told the news are excitedly putting two and two together, and they’re all now convinced she and Brad are having a child.
It’s a huge twist of fate after Jen’s devastating split from her husband of two years Justin Theroux late last year, which

they th fi finally ll confirmed fifi d in February.
“Justin never truly wanted children with Jen, and even if they were trying, he was making it pretty hard by running off to New York and leaving her in LA every chance he got,” another friend tells us.
“Brad and Jen just getting back together was the ultimate Hollywood fairytale. Add a baby to the mix and it’s beyond anyone’s wildest dreams. These two have done a lot of growing as people during the time they’ve been apart, and there’s no doubt they’d make wonderful parents together.”
Insiders say Brad, 54, couldn’t be more thrilled to hear the love of his life is now expecting their child.
