Angelina Jolie has rushed from the London set of Tomb RaiderTomb Raider to the hospital bedside of sickly husband Billy Bob Thronton in America.  

The sexy actress spent the weekend comforting her ailing Armageddon partner, an admitted anorexic who, according to his publicist is suffering from a mysterious "viral infection.”  

Michelle Bega denies reports 45-year-old Thornton has either 

suffered a heart attack, had an adverse drug reaction, or succumbed 

to his alleged dietary restrictions, in which he only eats orange- 

colored food, such as papayas, pumpkins, oranges, squash and 

carrots. 

She says, "these are unfortunate rumors. He did not have a heart 

attack or a cocaine overdose. He had a viral infection. 

"As far as him eating only orange food, I've personally seen him 

eat a salad, watermelon and even chicken."  

Jolie, who married Thornton earlier this year, May 5, 2000, after a 

whirlwind romance, has returned to Britain to complete her filming 

commitments, but is said to be deeply concerned about her husband's 

condition – WENN.
