Recently, People reported that Brad Pitt filed a lawsuit against Angelina Jolie in a Los Angeles court, accusing Angelina Jolie of intentionally damaging his reputation by selling his entire private stake in the Chateau Miraval winery.
Brad Pitt has developed the estate into a global project, valued at many millions of dollars. The actor confirmed that Angelina Jolie did not contribute to the development of Chateau Miraval.
This is not the first time Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have dragged each other to court, even though they have been divorced for 6 years.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were once the most admired couple in Hollywood. Their wedding ceremony was reported by the US media, the most handsome man in the world married the most attractive woman on the planet.
Brad and Angelina first met on the set of the movie “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” in 2005. Their time together and working on set has brought them close. Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston at the time. But when the movie closed and rumors swirled around Brad and Angelina, the actor’s five-year marriage to Jennifer ended.
Weddings and marriages between “the most handsome man in the world” and “the sexiest woman on the planet” are always in the spotlight of the media, because of their fame, power and wealth.

Brad and Angelina, also known by the press as “Brangelina” are not married but have steadfastly accompanied each other over the years. It can be considered that this is the most popular couple in the late 2000s. They always appear side by side at awards ceremonies and events, showing affection and interest in the other half.
It was not until 2014 that these two cult stars held a wedding ceremony at the Château Miraval estate, Correns. Unfortunately, the marriage only lasted for 2 years.
In 2016, Brad and Angelina decided to go their separate ways and began lengthy and intense legal battles over child custody.
Child custody battle
After the divorce, Angelina wanted to raise all 6 children without Brad’s support. The actor also wants to take care of his children.
In September 2016, media reported that the Los Angeles City Police Department (LAPD) was investigating Brad’s allegations of child abuse against his eldest son Maddox. The actor was proven innocent two months later.

In early 2017, according to Us Weekly, the couple released a statement about their plans to seal the divorce documents. They want to keep everything confidential and will work with a private judge to make the necessary legal decisions quickly.
In December 2018, Brad and Angelina avoided going to court and reached a custody agreement. Brad was given joint custody with the children.
However, in August 2020, Jolie applied to the court to remove Judge John W. Ouderkirk because he had a business relationship with Brad and his team of lawyers. Brad’s side objected when Angelina had never commented on Judge Ouderkirk before.
When the court arguments were still not over, Angelina filed documents accusing Brad of domestic abuse. The actress claims her children are ready to provide evidence. In May 2021, the court ruled that the couple would raise their child together.

Disputes over common property
In February 2021, Brad sued Angelina after she sold a 50% stake in Chateau Miraval to Russian tycoon Yuri Shefler. The “Lara Croft” actress is said to have not asked her ex-husband’s permission when making the deal.
Chateau Miraval is a wine estate jointly owned by two people.
Brad stated in the filing that he and his ex-wife had an agreement not to sell shares without the other’s permission.
Brad accused Angelina of keeping the deal a secret and that he wanted to cancel the deal between his ex-wife and businessman Yuri Shefler. Brad makes the argument that Shefler is making it difficult for him to run the France-based winery. In June 2022, People reported that the “Moneyball” actor had filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles court for damages for this move.
