Congratulations!

It took the National Enquirer just three words to get a story wrong. That’s a record! (For the time being.)

“Jennifer Aniston’s ex-beau,” begins a story about the “Friends” star and Gerard Butler.”

Already, the story is wrong since Aniston NEVER dated Butler.

But we’ll continue…

According to the supermarket tab, “Jennifer Aniston’s ex-beau has hit her with one final insult – he wants to settle down and have a baby – just not with her!”

“During their romance, Gerard told Jen the last thing he wanted was to get married and settle down. Now that he’s left her, he’s had a change of heart,” reports the mag, adding, “Jen was shocked when Gerard told her recently that he now wants a family.”

Oh really?

(Reminder: They NEVER dated.)

So what does the Enquirer say was the cause of Butler’s “change of heart”?

While eating a Sunday lunch in a Los Angeles restaurant, Butler, claims an Enquirer “source,” saw a couple with a baby, and “kept saying, ‘I want one of those. I want my own kid. Children are what it’s all about.’”

Uh, had he never seen a baby before? Or “one of those,” as they would have us believe him saying?

So while chowing down brunch he decides to make a life-changing decision, and then inform a woman whom he NEVER dated that he wants babies?

Suffice to say, Butler’s rep told Gossip Cop the story is “ridiculous.”

That’s an understatement.
