Brad Pitt Fights Back in High-Stakes $164M Winery Battle with Angelina Jolie
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are in a legal dispute over their co-owned French winery, Château Miraval. The trial date for their case is causing disagreement between the former couple.
Dispute Over Winery Trial Date
According to TMZ, Brad Pitt does not want the trial delayed for too long as he wishes to enjoy his mansion again. He sued Angelina Jolie, claiming she sold her stake in the winery without his permission.
Angelina Jolie argues that she didn't need Pitt's permission because negotiations between them had failed. The case is set for February 2027, but she prefers it to be delayed until November 2027.
Pitt’s Concerns About Delay
Pitt is willing to postpone the trial by two months but considers November too late. He has voiced concerns about being kept away from his home in France and alleged an attempted hostile takeover of the business.
He claims the business is hindered by their dispute and seeks a quick resolution to allow witnesses' availability. Pitt mentions that key figures related to the case may not be able to testify due to health reasons.
Jolie’s Response
Angelina Jolie refutes Pitt's claims, stating there is no evidence that his ability to live at his home has been affected by this case.
