Marion Cotillard’s partner Guillaume Canet is speaking out against rumors that Cotillard had an affair with her Allied costar Brad Pitt, or that she had any role in his divorce from Angelina Jolie. “I don’t usually make it a habit to comment on rumors made about us,” the actor-director, 42, wrote in French on Instagram Friday, alongside a picture of a “Danger” road sign. “I also don’t usually talk about my private life which until now I’ve always protected attentively … But the fury of the tabloids, the venal stupidity of some people calling themselves journalists, the haters who feel braver behind a keyboard, drive me to speak of the pride, love, respect and admiration I have for Marion staying as strong and intelligent in the face all these stupid and unfounded accusations,” he added. “I think we’re all living with much more important things at this moment and now it’s time to move on and raise the bar a bit,” Canet continued.
