Ever since their breakup in 2016, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been embroiled in complex legal disputes. While Angelina and Brad filed for divorce in 2016, they have been fighting over who would gain custody of their six children and the French winery they jointly purchased and used as a wedding location.

The former couple’s protracted legal dispute has been centered on the Chateau Miraval home in the South of France, which Brangelina purchased in 2008. Under the leadership of the Perrin winemaking family, Pitt and Jolie started selling their own rosé in 2013 after purchasing the estate. More recently, after Jolie sold her interest in the winery, Brad’s company sued the actress. The complex background of Pitt and Jolie’s divorce has a direct bearing on the winery case.

It has been asserted by Brad Pitt’s team that the former pair promised not to sell their Miraval shares without one another’s consent after Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from him in 2016. The actress requested physical custody of all six of their children at the time of her split from Pitt, claiming that she made the decision for the benefit of her family. At the time, TMZ had reported that Jolie had decided to end her relationship with Pitt due to his purported alcoholism and anger management problems.

After shocking information about what truly transpired on the private plane in 2016 was made public in an FBI investigation in August 2022, Angelina filed for divorce from the actor three days later. According to Entertainment Weekly, Jolie accused her ex-husband Pitt (whose identity has been censored) of assaulting her physically on an aircraft as the family was flying back to California. Jolie gave the FBI her real name as well as the alias “AJ” in the report. “You’re f*******************g ruining this family,” the actor allegedly yelled as he grabbed Jolie by the head and shoulders and threw her to the back of the aircraft.

Angelina’s allegations that Brad choked one of their children

The physical abuse claims Angelina previously made against Pitt are described in a new court document. The violent event happened on September 14, 2016, according to CNN. According to the paper, during the tense hours they spent on the flight, Pitt choked one of the kids and punched another one in the face. It further states that some of the kids begged Pitt to stop because they were terrified and many of them apparently started crying. Regarding the selling of her shares in the Miraval estate, Angelina asserts that she did so in an effort to achieve “financial independence” from Pitt in the wake of the catastrophic plane crash. The allegations have been refuted and branded untrue by Brad’s team.

Before getting married in 2014, Jolie and Pitt, who had been one of Hollywood’s most well-known couples for 12 years, dated for ten years. Although the couple was legally proclaimed single in 2019, their divorce case has not been finalized, and there are still open custody and financial disputes in addition to the ongoing conflict over the French vineyard and estate.
