Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie may come across as a picture perfect, flawless couple. But even they seem to have marital issues, just like any other couple.The couple, which was last spotted at their child's soccer game in Los Angeles last Sunday, have been seeking professional help and attending therapy sessions to save their marriage.Pitt and Jolie married in August last year after nine years of being together and having six children. The stars' relationship haven't been all that romantic, given Angelina's health issues.Jolie had to undergo a double mastectomy and had her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed, after she discovered that she was genetically predisposed to cancer.But the couple's marital problems came to light last November when they had an explosive fight on a balcony in Sydney prior to the world premiere of Angelina's movie "Unbroken."Ok! Magazine reported that Brad felt "suffocated" at times, with no "free time to himself.""Brad also wanted her to slow down and take some time off, and she felt he was being unsupportive," an insider told the magazine.This prompted the couple to seek professional help to ensure that their relationship survived. They have been going to therapy sessions twice a week, even remotely, when they have to travel.Belfast Telegraph reported that Angie's friend recommended a therapist, and the couple have been talking to her on their marital issues."She's the third person in their marriage right now, and it's been life-changing. The main thing they agreed on was that the children should be protected as much as possible from what was happening," the source said.But looks like everything is falling in place, and the sessions have been helping the couple cope with the difficult time they are facing. It has been reported that the therapy has brought such a change that the couple intend to continue with the therapy for the rest of their life. "Angie said it's been like falling in love with Brad again. [It's] transformed the family dynamic," according to the insider. "It's something they plan to do for the rest of their lives."

Dressed in black trousers and with a sweater held under her arm, Angelina Jolie was looking to cool off.So the 39-year-old made her way to a food vendor and fixed her eyes on ice cream in sunny Los Angeles on Saturday.The Oscar winner likely brought back the frosty treats for her husband Brad Pitt and daughters Shiloh and Zahara who were enjoying a soccer game at Griffith Park. For the family outing, she was clad in a head-to-toe black ensemble. The Salt actress had on a camisole top, trousers, sandals and a sunhat. She concealed her eyes behind dark aviators and a purse with plenty of room for snacks - which would certainly delight Zahara, 10, and Shiloh, eight.The Mr & Mrs Smith actress flashed a wide smile at the soccer park as she watched the game alongside her co-star and husband Brad. The 51-year-old looked stylish in a fitted V-neck purple shirt, dark trousers and a brown trilby.He carried a soccer ball while walking toward the park alongside Shiloh - who was seen wearing her uniform and carrying a ball of her own.The heartthrob's beautiful face appears to have healed quite well - without a hint of a blemish - since sporting a rather nasty wound at the Light Up the Blues Concert To Benefit Autism Speaks in Hollywood a week earlier.
Brad told People that he suffered a spill while heading up the stairs in a hurry wearing flip-flops. 'This is what happens when you try to run up steps in the dark, with your arms full, wearing flip-flops,' he revealed in a statement. 'Turns out if you then try to stop your forward momentum with your face, the result is road rash. Regardless, I wasn't going to miss the Autism Speaks benefit the night after – wonderful people and I was honored to be a part of this important event.' Meanwhile, Angelina was last spotted at JFK Airport in New York City while making her way to L.A. after attending the United Nations Security Council Meeting.The humanitarian urged leading world powers to aid Syrian refugees.She brought along her brother James Haven and 13-year-old son Maddox.

'Fifty Shades Darker' Movie: 3 Reasons Angelina Jolie Could Direct 'Grey' Sequel With Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan

"Fifty Shades Darker," the movie sequel to "Fifty Shades of Grey," has already been given a release date, but there is still no word on who will replace director Sam Taylor-Johnson.Taylor-Johnson, who directed the first movie in the franchise based on E.L. James' hit book series, announced in late March that she will not return to helm the two succeeding films.While Universal Pictures has yet to announce who will take the spot, many reports have claimed that Angelina Jolie is being considered for the job. Considering the actress-director's experience, it appears to be possible. Below are some of the reasons why Jolie could direct Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in "Fifty Shades Darker."
1. Jolie had already been tapped for the project.Jolie was in talks to direct the first "Fifty Shades" film, according to Deadline. And while that did not pan out, the studio said they would be interested in taking on the actress-director should she express her intention to be part of the project.
2. Jolie is familiar with the story's theme.A fan suggested that there are similarities between the stories in James' book series and Jolie's film "Unbroken." The fan, who writes at LatersBaby.net, suggests that the concept of unconditional love in the second and third books in the series might entice Jolie to take on the project.
3. Jolie is not a stranger to sexy themes and characters. The actress exudes confidence and sexiness as a person without even trying. She is also familiar with translating that sexiness onscreen. With films like "Original Sin" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" under her belt, it would be safe to say that Jolie knows more than a thing or two about playing sexy characters and doing steamy love scenes..
