With fame comes glamour and wealth. These are things everyone wants, but they can also take a toll on a relationship. With a celebrity’s busy schedule and a seemingly bottomless bank account, it’s hard to make time and decisions for things other than themselves. The fact of the matter is that there’s only so much a relationship can take before the best decision is to just call it quits. Here are some of the issues that can ultimately break up a celebrity couple:

It looks like Angelina Jolie may be having a case of the celebrity exes. Jolie’s 10-year-old son Maddox has reportedly developed a crush on Brad Pitt’s celebrity ex Jennifer Aniston, the Enquirer reported. Sources say that Maddox’s fascination began after he and his nanny watched Marley & Me and has since caused the youngster to put posters of Aniston on his bedroom walls. “Maddox is infatuated with Jennifer, and Angelina is fuming,” a close source told the tabloid. “Maddox simply likes Jen’s sweet face and look.”
With her child’s room filled with pictures of Pitt’s celebrity ex, Jolie can’t seem to get away from her. What do you do if you can’t avoid hearing about your partner’s exes?

The world of celebrity is fraught with ups and downs. Scandals of drug abuse, cheating husbands and lying wives make for gripping and sensational stories when they come to public attention. We have come to expect a bit of drama from Hollywood romances, but even so, there have been some celebrity divorces that we really didn’t see coming. Here are a few:

Thanks to her Zen approach to life and wonderful boyfriend, Justin Theroux, Jennifer Aniston has never been happier. To be exact, her happiness is 10-plus. “You have a more relaxed sense of the world and life,” said the former Friends star, “and you realize there’s nothing to be taken too seriously besides doing your work and being a really good person.” According to People, the couple who now calls L.A. home, weren’t as happy living in New York under the scrutiny of the paparazzi. “It felt like I was [living] in a fishbowl,” said Aniston.

There are some things in life that go together like peanut butter and jelly or a refreshing glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. Some of our favorite celebrity couples compliment each other in the same way. Although many of our most loved duos have split and moved on, there’s no shame in wishing they would reunite. Think way back to Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake; they always seemed like the perfect couple on “The Mickey Mouse Club.” What would life be like if all of our favorite Hollywood couples got back together? Here are a few Tinseltown twosomes we would love to see re-spark their old flames:

Some of us view Hollywood stars as lifestyle role models. You want Sofia Vergara’s lipstick, Beyonce’s curly hair or the Balenciaga bag that everybody and their mother was rocking on the red carpet recently. While it’s cool to mix celeb style with your own once in a while, it’s important to remember that the people who entertain us with movies, TV and music are just that — people.
That said, the famous are more human than we realize, and some of our favorite celebrities have one thing in common that we should never seek to emulate — their tumultuous relationships. In fact, let’s learn from the love, sex and dating mistakes of the stars.
Here are some celebrity relationship snafus to avoid:
This one comes from the director of the hit comedy Role Models, which is already a good sign. The film stars two great comedic actors, Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston, as a married couple who find themselves victims of the economy when Rudd’s character gets fired from his job. Forced to leave there pricey sanctuary in Manhattan, the couple ends up joining a commune of sorts and begin living among them. Naturally, comedy ensues. The trailer has some pretty hysterical moments. Also, it should be noted that the movie is rated R, which is usually a good sign for comedies like this.

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are keeping their relationship on the down low. Although the couple is getting steamy on screen for the new movie Wanderlust, according to People, Theroux is “vowing to keep mum.” “I understand the curiosity, but other than saying I am happy, I am not going to indulge it. That’s building your own torture device,” said Theroux. Aniston described her feelings as “joyful and peaceful.” Since the couple met on set last May, they have moved in together. However, they are not discussing marriage or children. That said, the couple has welcomed a new boxer-pitbull into their home, name Sophie.

It was a close one when celebrity exes Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt narrowly missed each other at the Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood on Friday. According to People, it would have been an awkward run-in since Pitt was with his children and wife, Angelina Jolie, while the Friends star was there with boyfriend, Justin Theroux. “Justin and Jennifer skipped the popcorn and went straight in. Like five minutes later, Brad and the kids came out of the theater. They just missed each other,” said a source who witnessed the potential run-in.

Actress Jennifer Aniston and new beau Justin Theroux got some exercise as they strolled through Beverly Hills on Sunday with her dog Dolly, according to RadarOnline. Aniston adopted the pup back in 2006, and she has recently become the top dog after the actress’s beloved mutt Norman passed away at the age of 15 back in April. Aniston uses walking Dolly as an excuse to spend some quality time with her canine and to fit some extra exercise into her busy schedule.

Ben Stiller spoke highly of the couple at the premiere of his movie Tower Heist on Monday. “They’re both great people. I love them both,” the actor told UsMagazine.com. Theroux is currently living with the former Friends star in her NYC penthouse. That said, no plans have been made to take the relationship any further. Aniston stated, “I’ve been married once and I don’t know if I’ll get married again.” It seems that, for now, the couple are just simply having fun in each other’s company.

Many of Hollywood’s top leading ladies have opened up to ELLE addressing all of the secrets and rumors everyone wants to know. On talk of being desperate to have a child, Friends alum Jennifer Aniston set the record straight by saying, “If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. I’m at peace with whatever the plan is. But will you hate me if I say I don’t want to talk about my relationship?” Though she remained private about her new beau Justin Theroux, according to People, Aniston did reveal that she once threw a chair at a director because of how he was treating the script supervisor.

It’s official! Jennifer Aniston has finally found a man to make her happy, as she recently moved in with new beau, Justin Theroux. This begs the question, what makes him different from all of the others she’s dated? I think it has something to do with the fact that he’s a solid man who shows leadership and makes decisions in their relationship. These days, it’s hard to find men who are powerful, which may be why it took so long for Jen to find her man.
Women universally love and respect men who are strong. While researching my book, Being the Strong Man a Woman Wants, one of the biggest complaints I heard from women is that today’s men don’t show initiative and lack grit. They say that men seem oblivious to problems and wait for women to tell them what to do. Even when they’re asked for input about something, men will say, “you decide.”
Single women told me that when they go out for coffee with a man, instead of taking the lead and selecting the place to go, he wants her to choose. And when they finally get somewhere, he wants her to pick the table.
To avoid accusations of being controlling, many men have now gone to the opposite extreme by completely avoiding being assertive. They think they’re showing that they’re non-controlling nice guys and can’t understand why women are frustrated and lose respect for them.
Here are three key ways to become a self-assured man any woman would love:

Celebrity couples are breaking up, getting back together, moving on, finding new love and embracing the single life on any given day. In fact, many of them are experts at being indecisive and unstable when it comes to relationships. It’s not exactly a lifestyle to strive toward, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t make us smile when a sweet pair of our favorite stars decides to get back together after previously calling it quits. Here are some notable duos that elected to give it another shot this summer:
1. Lady Gaga and Luc Carl: Gaga told Rolling Stone last year that she had never loved anyone like [Luc Carl] before. She was even quoted as saying, “That relationship really shaped me.” Despite these words, it was reported in May that the Bad Romance singer ended their “few year relationship.” It was short-lived because by June the couple appeared to be together again. A source told UsMagazine.com, “They had a little fight. I think the break-up lasted a week or two. They are totally back together now.” Sounds like this one may have been the shortest breakup in celebrity history.

Six years and six children later, Brad Pitt revealed his feelings toward his marriage with ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston. Not holding back, Pitt described the once golden couple’s union as everything, but ideal, according to RadarOnline. In an interview with Parade, he stated, “I wasn’t living an interesting life.” He continued to explain, saying that he was “trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.” The actor went on to praise his current love, Angelina Jolie, as the best thing that ever happened to him. Fans of the Aniston responded in outrage to after hearing Pitt’s comments about his life with the Friends star. He then backtracked saying that his unhappiness had nothing to do with his ex.
