Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's ongoing legal battle continues to shock the public, with the latest revelations including serious abuse allegations. In 2022, a court document disclosed that Jolie accused Pitt of physically and emotionally abusing her and their children during a 2016 plane incident. She alleges Pitt became violent, grabbing her by the head, shaking her, and yelling at her in front of their six kids. Jolie claims this incident left lasting trauma, and some of their children have since distanced themselves from Pitt.

Beyond the abuse allegations, the former couple is locked in a bitter dispute over their shared French winery, Château Miraval. The estate, purchased in 2008, has become a symbol of their troubled relationship. In 2021, Pitt sued Jolie after she sold her stake to a Russian oligarch without informing him, claiming it breached their agreement. Jolie, on the other hand, accuses Pitt of mismanaging the business. The legal wrangling over ownership has only intensified, with each side accusing the other of bad faith actions.

Another explosive allegation involves Pitt allegedly pressuring Jolie to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) to prevent her from speaking out about the abuse. Jolie's legal team claims this was an effort to silence her and protect his public image, a move that further soured their already contentious divorce.

While Pitt denies the abuse claims, his legal team suggests that the timing of these allegations is part of a broader strategy to damage his reputation. As the case continues, the emotional toll on their children, who witnessed the incidents, remains a significant concern.

The legal disputes between Jolie and Pitt show no signs of ending anytime soon, with both personal and financial stakes at play. The outcome of these cases will likely affect not only their business dealings but their co-parenting dynamic as well.
