NEW YORK (AP) _ It's true _ again?

Despite denials of a romance between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, new photographs show the couple on a beach in Africa, according to published reports.

The reports said the photos show Pitt, Jolie and her 3-year-old son Maddox playing in the sand and strolling on the beach. Pitt and Jolie aren't shown being affectionate with each other.

Pitt, 41, separated from his wife, Jennifer Aniston, in January. At the time of their breakup, there was speculation in the tabloids of a romance between Pitt and the 29-year-old Jolie, who co-star in the upcoming film ``Mr. and Mrs. Smith.''

In its April 18 issue, Us Weekly proclaimed on its cover, ``It's True!'' over separate photos of Pitt and Jolie. In an article inside, Us quoted employees of a California hotel who claimed they saw the two actors being affectionate.

Pitt's publicist, Cindy Guagenti, denied the report, saying ``this particular story is completely untrue.''

A phone call to Guagenti from The Associated Press early Tuesday wasn't immediately returned.

Aniston recently filed for divorce from Pitt after 4 1/2 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. Jolie was previously married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton.
