Angelina Jolie wants ex-husband Brad Pitt to drop his lawsuit against her regarding the center of their legal drama – Chateau Miraval winery – via her lawyer Paul Murphy.
WHAT ANGELINA WANTS
Amid eight years long divorce, the actress, 49, wants him to ‘end the fighting,’ after he sued her for selling her half of the winery in October 2021 for $67 million, according to People magazine.
Angelina asked that Brad, 60, disclose any third-party communication he had after their private plane ride in 2016 – during which she said he allegedly became violent and abusive, which he has vehemently denied and was cleared of – leading to the demise of their marriage.
WHAT HAS HAPPENED?
During the plane ride, it was alleged that he had an argument with son Maddox – and the FBI investigated the matter and cleared Brad of any wrongdoing.
Brad’s lawyer said her request was ‘intrusive’ and a ‘sensationalist fishing expedition,’ per the outlet.
His lawyer asked the judge to deny it.
BRAD SUED ANGELINA
In February 2022, Brad sued Angelina for selling their Chateau Miraval Winery, their French winery and the place they tied the knot.
They had 50/50 ownership, and Angelina sold her portion to Russian oligarch Yuri Shefler. The holding company in control of her Miraval share is called Nouvel.
