Brad Pitt is reportedly resisting Angelina Jolie's efforts to drag her man up the aisle.

While the actress is said to be keen to make their union official before adding to their brood of six, Brad apparently turned down her marriage proposal because he wants to attend couples' counselling first.

"Angelina proposed to Brad recently and suggested a Christmas wedding,” a source tells the National Enquirer.

“When Brad insisted they hold off, Angelina put him on a major guilt trip by telling him the kids want them to be married.

"Brad thinks a wedding right now is biting off more than they can chew. He would like to slow down and go through some couples counselling.

"But Angelina is insisting they get married before they adopt again or have another biological baby."

The couple recently denied reports that a £200 million pre-nuptial agreement had been drawn up to protect their assets ahead of a lavish wedding.
