The continuation of numerous legal disputes
In September 2016, Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from her then-husband, actor Brad Pitt, to whom she married in 2014 after years of married life. Their divorce proceedings have since been bogged down in long legal battles.
Over the next few years, the celebrities had custody disputes over their children, three biological and three adopted. In 2018, the former couple nicknamed “Brangelina” reached an agreement regarding the custody of their six children.
Brad Pitt, 61, and Angelina Jolie, 49, are also in conflict over the director’s sale of her shares in Château Miraval, owned in Var, in the south of France, where the couple had partnered since 2011 to a family of winegrowers to produce a rosé wine. The actor denounced the “evil intentions” from his ex-wife towards him.
In February 2022, Brad Pitt accused his former partner of violating her rights when she sold her share in the wine estate to a subsidiary of the Stoli Group, owned by a billionaire of Russian origin. In documents, the actor claimed that‘”Angelina Jolie was trying to cause him harm” regarding the sale of the domain, citing alleged ties between the company’s owner, Yuri Shefler, and Russian President Vladimir Putin. But Mr. Shefler has long been a critic of Vladimir Putin, and his drinks conglomerate Stoli Group is based in Latvia.
The actress, for her part, accused her ex-husband of assaulting two of their children during an argument aboard a private jet in 2016, according to court documents. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt got together during the filming of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”released in 2005, of which they played the two leading roles.
