Rumors are flying that superstar Angelina Jolie will become a new mom and a new bride this summer. People started talking when they found out that the French wine estate she and partner Brad Pitt have rented out has its own wedding chapel. The very secret couple has taken over the exclusive Chateau Miraval in Provence, and Angelina plans to give birth to her twins there later this summer. But there could be two big events on the grounds of the beautiful estate! Pitt and Jolie, who are staying at the 35-room chateau near Brignoles with their four children and assistants, have often insisted they have no plans to become man and wife, but the fact there’s a tiny chapel yards away from where the family sleeps must offer a daily temptation for the in love couple. And close insider, who knows the private retreat well, tells In Touch magazine, “It’s simplistic yet romantic and intimate. There are stained-glass windows at the front and back, 10 wooden pews and an old wood floor. There’s also a rustic wooden altar with beautiful ivory candles.” And the publication claims Pitt actually tried to buy the property, complete with its chapel, but owner Tom Bove refused to sell. A source reveals, “Brad did everything he could to change his mind - he took him to dinner five times before he (Bove) would even agree to lease it for six months.” Reports suggest Pitt fell for Miraval while surveying properties in France by helicopter.The idyllic retreat features a recording studio which has been used by Pink Floyd and Sting, among others, extensive woodlands, an olive grove, gardens, ponds and fountains. The estate is also surrounded by a moat.The property’s impressive wine cellars were reportedly built by Joseph Lombot, who invented reinforced concrete.
