Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie call it quits in epic legal battle

<p>Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reportedly chosen to settle their acrimonious legal dispute over their jointly owned French winery, Château Miraval, through mediation rather than pursuing further court battles.</p> <p>According to recent court filings obtained from TMZ, Jolie, 48, and Pitt, 59, have mutually agreed to attempt mediation as a means to resolve their disagreements concerning the future of Château Miraval.</p> <p>This development comes in the wake of allegations from Jolie's former investment company, Nouvel, accusing Pitt and other "co-conspirators" of trying to maintain control over Château Miraval by allegedly misusing and depleting its assets.</p> <p>The court documents claimed that Pitt had mismanaged the company's funds by directing substantial amounts towards personal endeavours, such as extravagant swimming pool renovations, repeated reconstruction of a staircase, and investing millions in restoring a recording studio.</p> <p>The legal dispute initially arose when Pitt filed a lawsuit against his former wife, claiming that she had sold her share of the winery to a Russian oligarch in 2021.</p> <p>According to a court filing, Pitt appeared upset over Jolie's decision to sell Nouvel to Stoli instead of him, and he allegedly failed to treat Nouvel as an equal partner in their business dealings.</p> <p>Furthermore, there were allegations that Pitt attempted to leverage the winery business to silence Jolie regarding the circumstances surrounding their divorce, which included allegations of abuse and disputes over child custody.</p> <p>Jolie had previously accused Pitt of physical abuse towards her and two of their children during a flight in 2016, leading to their separation later that same year.</p> <p>According to documents reported by the <em>New York Times</em> in 2022, Jolie's team claimed that Pitt engaged in a prolonged outburst during a flight from France to California in September 2016. The allegations included claims that Pitt had choked one of the children and struck another in the face, and had grabbed Jolie by the head and shaken her.</p> <p>In response to these accusations, Pitt's lawyer asserted that Pitt took responsibility for his actions but would not accept false claims against him. The actor has faced numerous personal attacks and misrepresentations throughout the legal proceedings.</p> <p>The former celebrity couple purchased Château Miraval, a picturesque country estate and winery located in the south of France, in 2008. Since then, it has become a focal point of their high-profile divorce.</p> <p>As they embark on the mediation process, both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt hope to find common ground and reach an amicable resolution to put an end to their protracted legal battle over Château Miraval.</p> <p><em>Images: CNN / Getty </em></p>

Angelina Jolie's bombshell allegations against Brad Pitt

<p dir="ltr">Angelina Jolie has claimed that her ex Brad Pitt was physically abusive towards her and two of their six children on a flight in 2016.</p> <p dir="ltr">The Hollywood actress’s legal team claimed that Pitt grabbed Jolie’s head and shook her then choked one of their children and struck another when they tried to defend her.</p> <p dir="ltr">Pitt’s representation vehemently denied the allegations saying the allegations are "another rehash that only harms the family”.</p> <p dir="ltr">The couple have been locked in a legal fight over their French home and winery in which the description of the abuse came to light.</p> <p dir="ltr">News of the alleged abuse first came to light soon after it happened, however the details were kept private in divorce documents.</p> <p dir="ltr">Further investigations by the FBI and Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services found that no action against Pitt was necessary.</p> <p dir="ltr">Pitt was then granted 50-50 custody of the children but the decision was soon appealed by Jolie and eventually became nullified.</p> <p dir="ltr">Reports of the abuse were first reported by The New York Times which read that on September 14, 2016, Jolie, Pitt and their six children were travelling from the winery, Chateau Miraval, to Los Angeles.</p> <p dir="ltr">"Pitt's aggressive behavior started even before the family got to the airport, with Pitt having a confrontation with one of the children. After the flight took off, Jolie approached Pitt and asked him what was wrong," the filing says.</p> <p dir="ltr">"Pitt accused her of being too deferential to the children and verbally attacked her."</p> <p dir="ltr">"He pulled her into the bathroom and began yelling at her. Pitt grabbed Jolie by the head and shook her, and then grabbed her shoulders and shook her again before pushing her into the bathroom wall."</p> <p dir="ltr">It is then when one of their children verbally defended Jolie, which caused Pitt to lash out.</p> <p dir="ltr">"Pitt lunged at his own child and Jolie grabbed him from behind to stop him. To get Jolie off his back, Pitt threw himself backwards into the airplane's seats injuring Jolie's back and elbow," the filing says.</p> <p dir="ltr">"The children rushed in and all bravely tried to protect each other. Before it was over, Pitt choked one of the children and struck another in the face."</p> <p dir="ltr">Pitt then proceeded to pour beer on Jolie, and beer and red wine on the kids.</p> <p dir="ltr">Jolie reported the incident to police, which also showed a photo of a bruise on Jolie's elbow and a "rug-burn type injury" on her hand.</p> <p dir="ltr">Despite all this, it was agreed that Pitt would not be charged.</p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Image: Getty</em></p>

Brad Pitt gives rare insight into what's next

“I never worked with him again”: Angelina Jolie on Harvey Weinstein

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Angelina Jolie has shared more about her experience with convicted rapist Harvey Weinstein, revealing in a new interview that she turned down a role in Martin Scorsese’s 2004 film </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Aviator</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to avoid working with him.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“If you get yourself out of the room, you think he attempted but didn’t, right?” Jolie told </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Guardian</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;"> while reflecting on filming the Weinstein-produced film </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Playing by Heart </span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">in 1998 when she was 21.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“The truth is that the attempt and the experience of the attempt is the assault.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jolie has previously spoken about the incident with Weinstein as a “bad experience”, but now labels it as an assault.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It was beyond a pass, it was something I had to escape. I stayed away and warned people about him,” she said in the interview.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I remember telling Johnny [Lee Miller], my first husband, who was great about it, to spread the word to other guys - don’t let girls go alone with him.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I was asked to do </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aviator</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, but I said no because he was involved. I never associated or worked with him again.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Though her first husband stood by her, her most recent partner, Brad Pitt, was initially less supportive.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pitt starred in Quentin Tarantino’s 2009 film </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Inglourious Basterds</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which was distributed and co-financed by the Weinstein Company.</span></p> <p><img style="width: 500px; height:364.2578125px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7844005/gettyimages-89735716.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/62a14e4af83e4f809a3a1e0a97149d57" /></p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Image: Getty Images</span></em></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jolie also alleged in the interview that Pitt approached Weinstein to produce his 2012 film </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Killing Them Softly</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;"> against her wishes.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Weinstein Company eventually distributed the film, which resulted in Jolie avoiding attending promotional events for it.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We fought about it.

Angelina Jolie selling iconic French Chateau for $61 million

<p><span>Angelina Jolie is selling her estate in Provence, France, after several legal issues.</span></p> <p><span>The actress filed for divorce from fellow actor Brad Pitt over five years ago, yet the couple remain linked due to the glorious French Chateau that was once a blessing, but now a plague for them.</span></p> <p><span>The pair purchased the estate back in 2008, for a reported €45 million (AUD $72 million).</span></p> <p><span>The incredible property includes several residential and non-residential structures, from a rundown, adorable chapel to a high-functioning farm.</span></p> <p><span>What gave the chateau a firm reputation, other than its high-profile owners, was its glorious pink wine which won them Wine Spectator’s award for best rosé in the world, back in 2013.</span></p> <p><span>Jolie claims since the couple split back in 2016, Pitt has prevented her from selling the estate.</span></p> <p><span>In June, the mother-of-four even went so far as to file a petition to ask the judge to lift the order that prevents a transfer of assets so she could finally be rid of the property.</span></p> <p><span>Considering the couple purchased the estate prior to their nuptials in 2014, Jolie’s lawyers say the glorious French chateau should solely be considered hers.</span></p> <p><span>“After all these years of trying to extricate herself from being business partners with her ex-husband on acceptable financial terms, Ms. Jolie is extremely desirous of closing the pending agreement for the sale of Nouvel, LLC, and requests that the Court issue an order lifting the ATROs and specifying that they shall not apply to Ms. Jolie’s sale of Nouvel, LLC,” the actress’ legal team stated in a document that was obtained by <em>Us Weekly.</em></span></p> <p><span>The rumour mill has claimed the actress has plans to sell it to a willing buyer for an estimate of USD $61 million.</span></p>

Angelina Jolie’s secret Sydney home hits the market for $11 million

Angelina Jolie reveals how she tried to save her marriage to Brad Pitt

<p>Angelina Jolie has revealed that she tried to save her marriage to ex-husband Brad Pitt by working on the film <em>By the Sea</em> together.</p> <p>The couple met while working on <em>Mr &amp; Mrs Smith</em> in 2005 and have six children together. They hadn’t worked tougher again until the 2015 film about a marriage in crisis, which Jolie also wrote and directed.</p> <p>“We had met working together and we worked together well,” Jolie told The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast, Awards Chatter. “I wanted us to do some serious work together ... I thought it would be a good way for us to communicate.”</p> <p>However, Jolie said working on the film with Pitt may not have helped their marriage.</p> <p> “In some ways it was, and in some ways we learned some things,” she said. “But there was a heaviness probably during that situation that carried on and it wasn’t because of the film.</p> <p>“It was something that we were dealing [with] ... things happen for different reasons, and things ... why did I write that exact piece? Why did we feel that way when we made it? I’m not sure.</p> <p>“A piece of art can be something that’s healing or something that’s difficult,” added Jolie. “I don’t know. I’m glad we did that film because we did explore something together. Whatever it was maybe it didn’t solve certain things, but we did communicate something that needed to be communicated to each other.”</p> <p>Jolie also spoke about the difficulties of divorce while promoting her most recent directorial effort, <em>First They Killed My Father.</em></p> <p>“Sometimes maybe it appears I am pulling it all together. But really I am just trying to get through my days.”</p> <p>“I don’t enjoy being single. It’s not something I wanted,” she said in an interview with The Telegraph. “There are no upsides, there’s nothing nice about it. It’s just hard.”</p>

Goldie Hawn’s secret to a long lasting relationship

<p>It’s been a big month for Hollywood splits with the announcement of the shock divorce of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, followed by that of Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber.</p> <p>But just when you think that true love has no hope, actress Goldie Hawn, who has been with her partner Kurt Russell for 33 years, has shared what she believes to be the secret to a couple staying together for a long period of time. And it’s not marriage!</p> <p>Speaking on Britain’s ITV Loose Women, the 70-year-old actress stated she believes the key to relationship success is freedom and never actually tying the knot.</p> <p>When asked about her position, Hawn stated, “I would have been long divorced if I got married. If you need to be bound to someone, then it’s important to be married,’ she added. ‘If you are independent, then it’s important to not be married.”</p> <p>Hawn added, “What is marriage going to do for us? At the beginning, you want to see each other all the time. Then you get jealous when they’re gone too long and that’s exciting. But for a healthy long-term relationship, then 68 per cent of the time is good.”</p> <p>What’s your take on her comments? Do you think marriage is not all it’s cracked up to be? Or are you still a hopeless romantic?

Angelina Jolie files for divorce from Brad Pitt after 12 years together

<p>The entertainment world has been rocked by reports that Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, her husband of 12 years. The Hollywood power couple, known collectively as “Brangelina”, have six children together.</p> <p>Entertainment website <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2016/09/20/angelina-joile-files-for-divorce-brad-pitt/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">TMZ</span></strong></a> broke the story, sharing a photo of the document filed by Jolie, who cited irreconcilable differences as grounds for the separation, claiming she was “extremely upset” by Pitt’s parenting methods.</p> <p>According to <a href="http://www.people.com/article/brad-pitt-fled-to-france-fighting-with-angelina-jolie" target="_blank"><em><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">People</span></strong></em></a>, 41-year-old Jolie didn’t agree with Pitt’s “strict” approach to their children. “He has wanted the kids to have more structure,” an insider said. “Brad will get frustrated sometimes and yell at the kids. Angelina always had a more relaxed attitude when it came to the kids.
