Last Friday, a Los Angeles judge ruled in the actress’s favour, ending her argument with her ex-husband. His question, and the reason for it all, was to know who the owner of the French winery Chateau Miraval was bought in 2008 and where the couple got married in 2014. The current value of the winery is approximately $167 million.
Earlier this year, Jolie sued Brad Pitt for setting aside the actress’ stake and stake in the winery, alleging that the actress had agreed not to sell each other’s shares without her consent.
According to the American press, Jolie sold her stock to a drinking businessman, so Pitt needed some documents he had. After learning of this act, the actor stated that he had invested heavily to make the winery one of the best in the world, accusing Jolie of “making unexpected profits from her business”.
Overcoming the charges resulted in legal battles in different countries such as the USA, Luxembourg and France. Pitt’s lawyers tried to get the courts to deny Jolie’s request for access to these documents, but a Los Angeles judge said both the actor and their partners must give these documents to Angelina.
The winery was in the midst of a conflict between one of the most mediatic couples in Hollywood and cinema.
