After an exhausting eight-year legal battle, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have officially reached a divorce settlement, finally putting an end to their long-standing dispute.
However, one major issue remains unresolved: the contentious battle over the French château and vineyard, Château Miraval, which the former couple jointly owned.
The legal wrangling over the estate, which is valued at $62 million, is still ongoing.
Relief for Angelina Jolie but the Legal Battle Is Not Over
Jolie’s attorney, James Simon, shared that his client feels a sense of relief now that the majority of the divorce proceedings are behind them.
He noted that the actress is “exhausted” after years of conflict and is now focusing on healing and finding peace for herself and her children.
The divorce proceedings were initiated by Jolie back in 2016, and since then, she has moved on from the properties they once shared, prioritizing her family’s well-being.
While the divorce settlement is a significant step forward, Jolie still has to contend with the ongoing dispute over their shared French estate.
The estate, which includes a vineyard, remains a key point of contention, especially after Jolie sold her $62 million stake to the Stoli Group, without Pitt’s approval.
The Dispute Over Château Miraval
Despite the progress on their divorce settlement, the battle over Château Miraval remains unresolved.
Both parties have expressed their willingness to take the matter to a jury trial or engage in mediation.
Sources suggest that Jolie has been trying to remain positive despite the ongoing legal battle, focusing on the future and urging her children to concentrate on changing laws rather than public disputes.
There are also reports about Jolie’s stance on the situation, with insiders sharing that she has refrained from speaking ill of her ex-husband in public or private, despite the immense challenges they have faced.
Her children, particularly Shiloh, Vivienne, and Zahara, have distanced themselves from Pitt in recent years, and it is believed that Maddox and Pax no longer maintain any relationship with him.
A Complex History of Allegations and Legal Struggles
The breakup of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, often dubbed “Brangelina,” was a public spectacle, with a number of allegations and legal hurdles over the years.
Jolie filed for divorce just two years after their marriage, following an incident involving Pitt and their children on a private plane.
Jolie claimed that Pitt exhibited a history of physical abuse, which he has always denied.
Although law enforcement cleared Pitt of any wrongdoing, the case has been a point of contention throughout their divorce.
Further legal filings revealed that Pitt allegedly attempted to force Jolie to sign a non-disclosure agreement to cover up what she claimed were years of abuse.
Despite these allegations, sources claim that Jolie did not seek charges against Pitt, choosing instead to focus on the emotional well-being of their children.
Brad Pitt’s Relationship With Ines de Ramon
Meanwhile, Brad Pitt, now 61, has moved on romantically and has been dating jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, 34, for almost two years.
The couple has kept their relationship largely private, with de Ramon reportedly requiring business associates to sign non-disclosure agreements to protect her personal life.
Sources close to Pitt have suggested that he may be ready for another marriage, with some speculating that an engagement could take place as early as 2025.
Brad Pitt’s close friends, including George Clooney, have reportedly approved of his relationship with Ines, with one source noting that Ines’s no-nonsense nature has helped Pitt feel comfortable enough to consider a future together.
The couple’s potential engagement is expected to be a major step in Pitt’s life as he moves forward from his past relationships with Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie.
