Confusion surrounds the marital status of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie after the actor's representative failed to rule out rumors the couple had married on Saturday in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The Babel star - who famously insisted he'd never again exchange nuptials until everyone in the U.S. had the right to - reportedly headed into a New Orleans church with Jolie to immortalize their relationship in marriage.

And Pitt's publicist stoked speculation when she admitted she had "no idea" if the reports were true.

However, according to a People.com source, there was "no wedding" - the couple traveled to New Orleans earlier this month so Pitt could check the progress of his Make It Right project to rebuild the city's hurricane-ravaged Lower Ninth Ward.

The website adds that Jolie and Pitt have most recently been staying in Austin, Texas, where the actor has been shooting scenes for new movie Tree Of Life.

If the reports are true, it would mark Jolie's third trip down the aisle and Pitt's second attempt at marriage. The couple already has four children - biological daughter Shiloh and adopted kids Maddox, Pax Thien and Zahara - and Jolie is currently rumoured to be pregnant with twins.
