As Angelina Jolie turns 48, she faces new allegations from ex-husband Brad Pitt amid ongoing divorce battle

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt may have split over seven years ago but the pair are still battling it out in court. 

The Hollywood actress celebrates her 48th birthday today (June 4) but it doesn’t seem that she will be doing much celebrating after being hit with fresh new allegations from her ex-husband. 

In court documents obtained by Entertainment Tonight Brad accuses his ex-wife of ‘secretly’ selling her share in the Chateau Miraval Winery in order to ‘seize profits she had not earned and returns on an investment she did not make.’

The actress was then called ‘vindictive' with Brad’s legal team reportedly claiming she ‘also sought to inflict harm on Pitt.” 

The new documents claim, “By 2019, Pitt and Jolie were finalising their divorce, and Jolie wanted out of Miraval. In recognition of the contractual rights she and Nouvel owed Pitt and Mondo Bongo, and the promises she made to Pitt even after their separation, Jolie acknowledged that there were only 'two ways forward.' Pitt and Jolie could sell Miraval jointly, or Pitt could buy her out. The former couple thus began exclusive buyout negotiations,"

The former couple got together after first meeting on the set of the movie ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’ in 2005 at the time Brad was still married to Friends actress Jennifer Aniston. 

Shortly after splitting from Jennifer, Brad and Angelina went public with their relationship and went on to have three biological children Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox. Angelina also had three adopted children Maddox, Pax and Zahara. 

All of the children have the combined surname Jolie-Pitt after Brad legally adopted both Maddox and Zahara in 2006. 

The couple adopted Pax when he was three shortly after the birth of Shiloh in 2006. Sources claim that Angelina once told Pax his father never wanted to adopt him.

The pair split in 2016 and their divorce was finalised in 2019. But the court battle did not end there. with the Hollywood stars fighting over custody of their children. 

Angelina accused Brad of being abusive and drunkenly attacking her and their children on board a private plane flight which led to the actress to file for divorce - Brad denied all of these allegations.
