Beautiful Actress Marion Cotillard Smacks Down Affair Rumors With Brad Pitt!
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie with their divorce news shocked the world in September when they revealed their shocking split. With such a sudden split of one of the most iconic couples of our time, media went into a frenzy to evaluate the cause of their split like the one rooted with Brad’s affair with co-star Marion Cotillard.
Marion Cotillard who is currently in a relationship with French actor/director Guillaume Cannet since 2007 sparked the romance rumors for being the co-star for one of her upcoming movies ‘Allied,' a World War II spy romantic where she will be starring as the love interest of Brad Pitt.

Perhaps the media felt that it could be a sort of a déjà vu to link Brad Pitt’s affair with a co-star considering it is the same thing that happened last time when Brad Pitt had an affair with ‘Mr. And Mrs. Smith’ co-star Angelina Jolie while he was in a relationship with Jennifer Aniston.
Marion Cotillard has been continuously presented by the media as the potential cause after all the rumors. But in reality, Marion is expecting her second child with boyfriend Guillaume Cannet not to forget her first son, Marcel.
Marion has been silent on the entire matter related to this because she doesn’t like commenting on things. But after many false talks and rumors, she finally came out to all her fans by posting her views on Instagram alongside a photo. The photo was captioned to address not only the whole Brad Pitt case but also a sweet message to her husband. The caption read:
“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.
I am 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.
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.
Finally, I do very much wish that Angelina and Brad, both whom I deeply respect, will find peace in this very tumultuous moment.
With all my love Marion”

She also talked about it in an interview with America’s Today in November 2016, to Matt Lauer where she said,
“I never take anything personally when it doesn’t concern me,” And so I didn’t take it personally because I had nothing to do with those rumors or situations.”
And continued saying,
“I don’t give energy to this, It was a wonderful, wonderful experience working with such a visionary director [Robert Zemeckis] and an amazing actor, so that’s all that matters, you know?”
This is what Marion had to say in her self-defense.
