A lawyer for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie says the celebrity couple is suing a British newspaper for erroneously reporting they broke up.
The film stars have been together for more than five years and have six children.
The News of the World tabloid last month reported Jolie and Pitt, who have never married, had consulted a divorce lawyer about how to divide their assets and custody of their kids.
However, the pair's lawyer, Keith Schillings, told BBC News they have begun legal proceedings against the newspaper for publishing "false and intrusive allegations."

At this point, I can't say how true this is, so let's file it under "rumor" for now...
Citing a source, The News of the World reports that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have sought legal counsel in LA - meeting with divorce attorney's - to put an end to their relationship and divide what could be $205 million dollars in assets.
According to the report, Pitt and Jolie - who have reportedly never gotten hitched - have agreed to share their six children, however according to the source, they would take up permanent residence with Jolie. The couple have three biological children together, daughter Shiloh, 3, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 17 months, as well as three adopted children, 8 year old Maddox, Zahara who is 5, and 6 year old Pax.
According to the insider:
"The contract was like a tailor-made version of a prenuptial agreement except for an unmarried couple's split. It seemed clear they want the world to know they'll both play a part in the upbringing of the children."
The News of the World said the couple consulted a lawyer in December, and signed the agreement earlier this month.
The source added that while there was no date specified for the alleged contract to come into effect, the paperwork is already organized for a break-up and for it to be as "un-messy as possible."
Update
At least one unnamed source who is reportedly close to the couple tell People.com that the impending Pitt/Jolie split is "totally false."
People.com said multiple sources deny Jolie and Pitt intend to go their separate ways, prompting one source to pipe up:
"Everything is fine."
Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles are No. 1 on Forbes's list of the 15 top-earning celebrity couples. The pair reportedly made a combined total of $122 million between June 2008 and June 2009.
Coming in at No. 2 with $69 million are Harrison Ford and his girlfriend, Calista Flockhart, followed by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, with a cool $55 million.
Rounding out the Top 10 are:
4. Will and Jada Pinkett Smith: $48 million
5. David and Victoria Beckham: $46 million
6. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi: $36 million
7. Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson: $35.5 million

Could it be true? Is Angelina Jolie really ready to add to her brood by adopting yet another child - this time from Syria?
Rumor has it that Jolie is planning to bring home another child, this time from the Middle Eastern country of Syria - or so says OK! Magazine, anyway.
OK! also claims that Jolie has began the adoption process without partner Brad Pitt - prompting of course, all kinds of rumors and speculation that Pitt isn't interested in parenting any more kids - at least not any that aren't his biological offspring, anyway.
If there's a nugget of truth to the story, it's that a spokesperson for the Immigration and Naturalization Service in Washington D.C. reportedly confirmed that "only (Angelina's) name was on the (adoption) papers" - but that was when she was married to Billy Bob Thornton and adopted Maddox.

This weekend, I saw Inglourious Basterds. I tried to go last weekend, but it was all sold out.
This weekend I just happened to get lucky and get to the cinema early enough to get a seat. By the time the opening credits started to roll, the theater was a sold out, packed house for the second weekend in a row.
I loved the film, but then again I'm a huge Quentin Tarantino fan, so I knew what to expect, however, some of those around me had either never seen a Tarantino film before, or were somehow suckered into believing this was simply another WWII film which just happened to star Brad Pitt and not Matt Damon.
For those who haven't yet seen Inglourious Basterds, be aware - this is not Saving Private Ryan.
Here's how the weekend stacked up:
The Final Destination was No. 1 at the box office, with than $28.33 million in ticket sales.
Inglourious Basterds fell from No. 1 to No. 2 with more than $20.04 million.
Halloween 2 was third with more than $17.40 million.
District 9 fourth with $10.7 million.
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra fifth with $8 million.
Julie & Julia sixth with $7.4 million.
The Time Traveler's Wife was seventh with more than $6.74 million.
Shorts eighth with $4.87 million.
Taking Woodstock ninth with more than $3.74 million.
Rounding out the top 10 was G-Force with more than $2.84 million.

Brad Pitt, star of the new World War II flick from Quentin Tarantino, Inglourious Basterds, has dissed Tom Cruise's Nazi-themed picture, Valkyrie, as being "ridiculous."
Cruise's 2008 movie was based on the true story of a botched attempt to assassinate German dictator and Holocaust architect Adolf Hitler.
Cruise and Pitt co-starred in the 1994 film, Interview with the Vampire.
In an interview with German mag, Stern, Brad Pitt says:
"The second World War could still deliver more stories and films, but I believe that Quentin put a cover on that pot. With 'Basterds,' everything than can be said to this genre has been said. The film destroys every symbol. The work is done, end of story."
Asked for his opinion about Valkyrie, Pitt reportedly replied:
"It was a ridiculous movie."
But Pitt's people insist their client was misquoted. A spokesman for Pitt says:
"Brad has never seen Valkyrie so this is not accurate."
Brad Pitt sported a white suit as he left the premiere of The Time Travelers Wife, held at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York City last night.
