Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt aren’t taking the rumors that they are headed for splitsville very lightly.

The couple’s lawyer, Keith Schilling, announced Monday that Brangelina has taken action against Britain’s News of the World, and taken the first steps in legal proceedings against the paper for their false allegations about the pair’s relationship.

“We can confirm unequivocally … that the allegations published by the News of the World are false as well as intrusive,” Schilling said in a statement.

Last month the U.K. paper reported that Brad and Angelina had met with a divorce lawyer to discuss the splitting of their assests.

Schilling also quoted Sorrell Trope, who was identified as the couple’s divorce lawyer, as 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.”

If Sunday’s Super Bowl is any indication, Angelina and Brad are still very much on–the duo engaged in some serious PDA for the cameras.
