Preamble: Although (or maybe because

) I'm studying to be a physicist, I'm far from being an expert on this.
Intuitively and without having a look at the math involved, I'd guess that, since no information is permitted to escape the black hole, the entanglement would break the moment one of the particle passes across the event horizon.
