Once hailed as the ultimate power couple of Hollywood, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie once radiated a combined star power that outshone even the brightest of spotlights. However, their relationship eventually soured, leading to a tumultuous divorce and ongoing legal battles that dominate headlines today.

Recent court filings have alleged that Brad Pitt’s alleged “physical abuse” towards Jolie began before the widely publicized 2016 plane incident, marking a disturbing escalation in their troubled relationship.

The once inseparable duo, who jointly purchased a French winery during their time together, now find themselves embroiled in legal disputes over its sale. Pitt claims Jolie’s actions have damaged the business’s reputation he worked hard to build, while Jolie accuses Pitt of abusive behavior during their marriage, including an incident aboard a plane in 2016.

Their divorce was finalized in 2019, but the acrimony continues. Jolie’s legal team recently submitted documents alleging that Pitt’s abusive behavior towards her and their children began earlier than previously disclosed, although specific details are scarce.

Furthermore, it’s claimed that Pitt insisted on Jolie signing a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as a condition for purchasing her share of the winery, allegedly to prevent her from speaking about his alleged abuse. Pitt’s team has yet to respond to these latest allegations, but they maintain that he was granted 50/50 custody of their children after a thorough custody trial.

The ongoing legal battles and public accusations paint a grim picture of a once-glamorous relationship now mired in controversy and recrimination.
