Angelina Jolie Continues to Battle Pitt Over Winery
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's ongoing dispute over their French winery, Chateau Miraval, continues to dominate headlines.
The latest development in the couple's legal battle centers around the sale of Jolie's share in the winery to a Russian oligarch.
Jolie filed a lawsuit in February 2022, claiming that Pitt had sold his share of Miraval without her consent. Pitt countersued, alleging that Jolie had violated their agreement by selling her stake to a third party.
The legal battle has been contentious, with both sides accusing the other of wrongdoing. Jolie has claimed that Pitt is trying to force her out of the business, while Pitt has accused Jolie of damaging the reputation of the winery.
In a recent court filing, Jolie's lawyers argued that the sale of her shares to the Russian oligarch was necessary to protect her financial interests. They claimed that Pitt had been using the winery as a "personal playground" and had not been reinvesting in the business.
Pitt's lawyers have denied these allegations, arguing that Jolie is simply trying to cash out her investment in the winery. They have also accused Jolie of trying to damage Pitt's reputation by making false claims about his management of the business.
The legal battle is expected to continue for some time. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for March 2023.
In the meantime, the couple's ongoing dispute is casting a shadow over the future of Chateau Miraval. The winery has been a source of pride for both Pitt and Jolie, and it is unclear what will happen to it if the legal battle continues.
