'Jennifer Aniston Dumped Brad Pitt'

Despite the common perception that Brad Pitt dumped his wife Jennifer Aniston to pursue a  relationship with Angelina Jolie, Sheryl Crow has insisted that it was infact that Friends star that ditched her husband first.

Rocker Sheryl bonded with Jennifer after her heart-breaking split because she too had just parted ways with her fiancé, cyclist Lance Armstrong.

Crow states: "For both of us, the perceived idea is that, in our big relationships, we both got dumped. Believe me, this is not true.

"Neither one of us has ever gotten dumped. No one ever knows what goes on in relationships.

"Unfortunately, for some people like Jennifer and me, so much is written about things that you don't say, and so many emotions are attributed to you that you haven't had."

In addition to Sheryl’s claims, another friend backs up her story, telling the National Enquirer: "Once Jen saw the writing on the wall, she dumped Brad.

"She took a cold, hard look at her marriage and realised it was irretrievably broken. She and Brad had vastly different personal agendas and feelings about love, career and having a family."
