Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: the actor has just won a “clear victory” in their divorce
The rest after the ad
It has now been eight years since the couple announced their separation. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s divorce continues. But it seems that the actor has just won a victory in the battle. This is what the American tabloid People claims, with supporting evidence.
Before going into details, here’s a quick reminder. If Angelina Jolie also accused Brad Pitt of domestic violence, one subject particularly crystallizes the conflicts between the two ex-spouses: Château Miraval, Brad Pitt’s French wine estate. To the point that their divorce was nicknamed “the rosé war”. Angelina Jolie sold her half of the couple’s vineyard almost three years ago, without asking her ex’s consent. Since then, the former spouses have been going through a series of trials.
The conflict around the wine estate
Last April, Brad Pitt filed a complaint against his ex-wife. He claimed that an agreement dating from 2013 between the former couple’s companies, Mongo Bongo and Nouvel, had been concluded “to give each other a right of pre-emption on any sale of their respective interests in Château Miraval” and that the The written agreement “prevented Mondo Bongo and Nouvel from selling their interests without the agreement of the other”, we learn in an article in the media People. Allegations that Angelina Jolie refutes.
In the same article (published on November 11), the tabloid indicates that it has obtained new legal documents dating from November 8. In these papers, Lia Martin – the Los Angeles County Superior Court judge in charge of the Pitt-Jolie case – rejects the requests filed by Angelina Jolie’s legal team. She wanted to contradict Brad Pitt’s words.
What does this mean? “Last week’s filings suggest the judge found merit in Pitt’s claims that their initial verbal agreement was binding, and that Jolie may have violated it when she sold her shares to the businessman Russian Yuri Shefler in 2021”, we read in an article in the Daily Mail.
A victory for Brad Pitt
“This is a clear victory for Brad, which demonstrates the legitimacy of his demands and which proves once again that the speeches of the other camp are not supported by concrete elements”, rejoiced a anonymous source from the tabloid.
However, the war does not seem to be over. In the Daily Mail this time, a source close to the matter reacted to the progress of the case. “It’s already very ugly, but it’s going to get even uglier because Angie is determined to get revenge on Brad and will try to continue to settle old personal scores,” she said. Enough to still cost the former spouses, who have already each spent millions of euros in their trials. So far, the lawsuits between the former spouses have already earned them several million euros.
