Brad Pitt's legal claims against Angelina Jolie can be brought to trial, a judge ruled. The 'Fight Club' star sued Jolie in 2022 over her sale of Château Miraval.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will likely head to trial over their heated, yearslong winery battle. A judge ruled Pitt's claims that he brought against Jolie in 2022 can go to trial in an order issued Monday, Fox News Digital confirmed. Pitt accused his ex-wife of breaching the former couple's contract when she sold her shares of their winery to the Stoli Group 'secretly.' The judge ruled Pitt and Jolie had an implied contract and a verbal agreement.
The former couple bought a controlling stake in Château Miraval in 2008 and spent time at the home throughout their relationship. Jolie attempted to sell her company, Nouvel, to Tenute Del Mondo, a subsidiary of the Stoli Group, in 2021, effectively transferring her 50% ownership interest in Miraval. Pitt has fought this sale, claiming the move breached a contract between the two.
source close to Jolie also claimed Pitt was given the opportunity to buy her stake in Miraval, but the actor 'refused' to finalize the sale unless the actress agreed to stay silent about alleged domestic abuse. 'No matter how many times Mr. Pitt amends his complaint, he cannot escape from the fact that he verbally and physically assaulted Ms. Jolie and their children — even choking one of the children and striking another,' the source told Fox News Digital.
