‘Why? What is your benefit? Just in general I want to understand the train of thoughts. Because I don’t get it. It’s just so rude and sad for those commenting.’
Brad sparked rumours of a romance with Angelina Jolie lookalike Nicole when he was spotted with her at France’s Le Castellet Airport in August.
Onlookers said the pair were behaving like ‘lovestruck teenagers’ when they couldn’t keep their hands off each other at the airport – before flying to a smaller airport close to Château Miraval, the estate Pitt purchased for $67 million in 2011 with his ex-wife Angelina.
An insider revealed to US Weekly at the time that Brad remained ‘realistic about the relationship’ since she ‘lives in Germany’ and he ‘has a very complicated family situation that he is trying to get sorted out.

It is believed they met at the upmarket restaurant, Borchard, in Berlin, owned by Nicole’s husband Roland Mary, whom she has an ‘open marriage’ with.
In August it was revealed Nicole was married and that Roland is reportedly ‘not interested’ in being ‘jealous’ about her extra-marital dalliance with the hunky actor.
Mr Mary – apparently no stranger to romantic trials and tribulations after reputedly being married four times – has remained tight-lipped about his marital arrangements, and his wife’s friendship with Pitt.
However, a friend reportedly said: ‘Roland is a very philosophical guy. He has been married several times and has five children. He is not interested in negativity or jealousy.

Meanwhile, Brad shares six children, Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12, with his ex-wife, Angelina, 45.
They announced their shock split in 2016, but have yet to finalize terms regarding custody and support for their children.
And the Hollywood actor reportedly wants split custody as a source told ET Online: ‘Brad is asking for 50/50 custody to be put in place and stay in place.
‘Angelina wants to be fair when it comes to custody. She is very structured with the children.
‘Brad has high hopes [they can] try to make it work because of the importance of co-parenting.’
