Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt have a turbulent history - they went from being lovers to spouses, to exes and now friends. They have seen and been through a lot, which makes their journey great fodder for gossip mongers. 

Recently, the NW magazine reported that Brad is "panicking" upon being left with a secret love child he may have had from his many flings with British women, whom he got close while filming 'Interview with the Vampire' in 1994. What's more, it is being said that this new, shocking piece of revelation has left the 'Friends' star "blindsided."

The magazine has even pushed a photo of Brad holding a baby on the cover indicating that could be the "love child."

However, Gossip Cop has dismissed any and all claims made by NW. The website has confirmed it's an old picture of the actor with Shiloh Jolie-Pitt from when she was a toddler or even younger. It has also rejected the insider's quote about how the child would impact Brad and Jen's relationship. "Whether things with Jen could survive such a bombshell," the insider questioned, but Gossip Cop has confirmed that there is nothing both Brad and Jennifer have to worry about simply because: first, they are just friends, second, no love child exists. 

Brad and Jen used to be Hollywood's golden couple and it's understandable that people are invested in their private lives, but making such wild allegations may not be fair to the stars. 

A few weeks ago, it was being said that Jennifer and Brad have broken up and she's back with John Mayer, who is a rebound. And then a few days later, the actress giving up alcohol for Brad flooded headlines. "Having a child with Brad is a big priority, but being happy with Brad is even bigger – she knows what this means to him," a source told NW earlier this month.

And the gossip didn't stop there. Apparently, when Jennifer and Brad got together "everything fell into place" except for the sobriety part. However, she knew what the relationship meant to both of them and that's when giving up on her evening wine became easy.
