Brad Pitt will not drop his lawsuit against ex-wife Angelina Jolie after she tried to paint herself as a ‘victim’ in a desperate bid to get him to end their bitter legal battle over Chateau Miraval, insiders have claimed.
Pitt, 60, and Jolie, 49, have been embroiled in a dispute over their co-ownership of the idyllic French winery, which they purchased in 2008, with the actor suing his ex-wife for selling her half without his consent for $67 million in October 2021.
They later entered into an acrimonious mudslinging over NDA’s, which have become a key battleground in their fight.
Jolie is now asking Pitt to ‘end the fighting’ and drop the lawsuit against her to allow their family to ‘heal.’
But sources have whispered that the Fight Club star ‘has no intention’ of dropping it – alleging that Jolie only made the plea after realizing that she does not have as strong a case as she previously thought.
WORDS COMING IN
‘Brad is not going to drop this lawsuit – why would he? This was a very standard business dispute but unfortunately, Angelina has consistently introduced personal elements that are meant for a divorce court,’ an insider said.
‘Angelina is asking him to put an end to the fighting as if she is a peacemaker. This is nothing more than to paint herself as the victim. This is not a fight. This is a business dispute over the sale of property that was ultimately going to be for their kids. It was their inheritance, and she knows this.

‘She is realizing that she does not have a strong case anymore and she also knows that she may likely have to shell out the money by order of the courts.
‘Bringing very personal issues into a business lawsuit is backfiring on her. It has exposed the weaknesses in her case and has complicated matters for both parties. She didn’t need to do this.’
