Brad Pitt buys bachelor pad to 'get over split from Angelina Jolie'

Brad Pitt has secretly purchased a bachelor pad to help him sort out his split from Angelina Jolie, it was reported yesterday.

The 46-year-old Ocean's Eleven actor has spent £700,000 on the house, complete with a cave, in the Hollywood Hills.

'The house oozes character,' said a source. 'Brad has had his eye on it for some time but he decided now was the right time to buy because he wanted a place to call his own.

'He needs somewhere quiet that doesn't have memories of Angie and where he can be alone and think about what he does next.'

Built in 1920 and originally on sale for £1.3million, the property has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a bar area. The cave is built into the foundations.

It was reported yesterday that Pitt's mother Jane has stepped in to try to save his relationship with Miss Jolie.

She plans to use the skills she learnt working as a family counsellor when she meets the 34-year-old actress in Los Angeles next week.

The 70-year-old has apparently become close to Miss Jolie thanks to their joint work in setting up a cancer centre.

She has however always favoured her son's ex-wife, the actress Jennifer Aniston, 40.

Pitt and Miss Jolie, pictured below, are already believed to have enlisted lawyers to negotiate the division of their £205million fortune and custody of their children.

'Tiger Woods gave me lots of cash and hours of sex as a Christmas present,' claims No 1 mistress Rachel Uchitel

Tiger Woods’ main mistress has reportedly claimed the shamed golf star 'gave her lots of cash and hours of sex' as a present on Christmas Day.
Rachel Uchitel – whose affair with the billionaire sparked his car crash row with wife Elin Nordegren – said they had several secret encounters over the festive period.
Woods has not been seen in public since revelations of his cheating began more than a month ago.
But party hostess Miss Uchitel, 34, said she was able to avoid being spotted by wearing a ski mask on visits to his Florida mansion.
‘He took care of me really good,’ she reportedly said. ‘It was amazing and delicious.
‘Tiger and I have been sneaking around for the last few days. It’s been really hard - we have a condo at Palm Beach where we go.’
And she reportedly claims Woods, also 34, is a sex addict but is keen to develop their relationship – even talking about having children - once he is divorced.
According to News of the World, Miss Uchitel told a friend: ‘It is definitely over with his wife, they are getting divorced and he’s agreed to give her $300 million (£187million) including all the houses.’
‘He has been sorting things out. We are soulmates. I just want it done. I want to start over again with him.’
Despite shying away from the public gaze, Woods moored his £22million yacht Privacy in view of Miss Uchitel’s family home in Palm Beach over Christmas.
The New York VIP party organiser apparently considers Woods as a ‘superstud able to satisfy her for hours on end’ a source told the Sunday newspaper.
But the source also claims Rachel is ‘freaked out’ that she might lose Woods because of the way she has been portrayed in the scandal.
Her alleged meetings with Woods appeared to have ended by Wednesday as his yacht set sail from the private dock. It is believed to be heading to the Bahamas
Meanwhile, Woods’ wife Elin, 30, was yesterday seen smiling during a day out with her children near their marital home in Windermere, Florida
