The once-golden couple, Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie, are locked in another legal battle, this time over their co-owned French winery, Château Miraval. The lawsuit has been simmering for a while, but recent developments hint at a potential escalation.

Jolie calls for a truce.

On July 17th, Jolie’s legal team filed a motion urging Pitt to drop the lawsuit altogether. They argue for an end to the fighting and a focus on resolving the winery issue amicably. This comes after Pitt sued Jolie in February 2022, accusing her of selling her stake in Château Miraval without his approval.

The NDA: A Bitter Pill to Swallow

Jolie’s lawyers throw a wrench into the works. They claim Pitt only offered to buy her out if she signed a significantly expanded Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). This NDA, they allege, would have silenced Jolie on anything related to “personal wrongdoings and mistreatment” by Pitt.

The NDA becomes a sticking point.

The NDA becomes a major point of contention. Jolie’s lawyers believe the terms were unfair and a way to prevent her from speaking out. Pitt’s team strongly denies these accusations, calling them a desperate attempt to distract from the case.

What’s on the tasting menu for the future?

With both sides entrenched, the future of the lawsuit is uncertain. Jolie’s request for dismissal suggests a desire to move on from the conflict. However, Pitt’s lawyers likely believe the lawsuit is crucial to protecting his business interests.

The judge’s decision on Jolie’s motion and the ongoing investigation into the NDA will be key in determining the next steps. Will they find a way to settle, or will this bitter dispute go to trial? Only time will tell.

This complex legal battle highlights the challenges of high-profile divorces, especially when business ventures and personal lives become tangled. It will be fascinating to see how this saga unfolds in the coming months.
