Insiders reveal how Brad Pitt believes Angela Jolie is going all out to punish him as their bitter split rumbles on<\/p>\n

If looks could kill… Brad fears his ex Angelina is determined to wreak revenge<\/p>\n

Next year marks two decades since Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt met and fell in love on the set of\u00a0Mr & Mrs Smith\u00a0\u2013 fast becoming Hollywood\u2019s ultimate golden couple and going on to wed at their picturesque French chateau in 2014.\u00a0
But now, eight years on from when Angelina, 49, first filed for divorce in 2016 after just two years of marriage, their Chateau Miraval wedding venue is now at the centre of one of the most toxic splits that the showbiz world has ever seen.\u00a0
The couple have been locked in a legal duel for the \u00a3130 million estate, which produces their Miraval Rose wine , since 2021, when Angelina sold her share to a Russian vodka magnate \u2013 a decision Brad, 60, promptly sued her for.\u00a0
Meanwhile, Angelina\u2019s team allege that she had wanted to sell her percentage to Brad, but that he had demanded she sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement as part of the deal \u2013 something they say was an attempt to \u2018control\u2019 her.
And last week, following whispers of an upcoming peace deal over the custody of their two youngest children \u2013 16-year-old twins\u00a0Knox and Vivienne – and their extensive assets, a new court ruling has now dropped yet another huge bombshell into the heart of their on-going divorce battle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Brangelina clan in happier times back in 2014<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
While Brad won the first round of the legal dispute earlier this month \u2013 with a judge ruling against Angelina\u2019s bid to throw the case out \u2013 last week, it was declared that Brad be made to hand over\u00a0 documents that Angelina and her legal team claim will show that he covered up alleged domestic violence against her and their children.\u00a0
\u00a0And now an insider reveals that Brad is convinced that his ex-wife is determined to wreak revenge on him following what he believes to be her \u2018calculated\u2019 decision to attend the red carpet of the Governors Ball last fortnight, arm-in-arm with their son Knox.\u00a0
The source says, \u2018It was very hard for Brad to see photos of Knox with Angelina on the red carpet because he hardly gets to see him. He\u2019s proud of Knox and has no issue with him getting out there and making a name for himself but he can\u2019t help but feel it\u2019s all very calculated by Angelina to mess with him.\u00a0
\u2018It\u2019s upsetting; no doubt about it, but Brad is also pretty much used to it. Every year Angelina pulls some sort of stunt around the holidays that\u2019s so obviously aimed at seeking revenge by hurting him.
\u2018Whether it\u2019s taking the kids far away for a trip to make it next to impossible for him to see them, or filing something with the courts to throw a wrench into things.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ange and family in 2021 – Brad is said to be desperate to be with the kids for his birthday<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
The former couple also share Maddox, 23, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19 Shiloh, 18, and their children have been very much at the centre of their feud.\u00a0
And the source says Brad, who will celebrate his birthday on December 18th, would love nothing more than to be with his children during this time of year \u2013 something they say Angelina is hell-bent on not agreeing to.\u00a0
The source adds, \u2018His birthday is coming up and he\u2019d love to see his kids but he\u2019s not counting on it because most years she finds a way to interfere.
\u2018It\u2019s incredibly frustrating and sad but he\u2019s trying not to get sucked down by it, he can\u2019t control her actions, all he can do is focus on getting his court mandated time with his kids and being the best dad he can be.
\u2018He\u2019s tried so many different avenues to mend things with them, and with Angelina, and it\u2019s almost impossible. His only option has been to have his lawyers continue to push for more time and to do what he can to get through to his kids when he does see them.\u2019\u00a0
And this isn\u2019t the first time Angelina has been accused of seeking revenge.\u00a0
In 2022, FBI documents, that were requested to be released by Angelina, contained details of an altercation that is alleged to have happened on the couple\u2019s private jet \u2013 just days before Angelina officially filed for divorce in September 2016.\u00a0
The documents, which were initially redacted (meaning sensitive information was taken out) contain accusations made by Angelina against Brad, who she described as acting \u2018like a monster\u2019 and \u00a0treating her \u2018like a hostage\u2019 \u2013 alleging that he \u00a0grabbed and shook her, pushed her into a wall and punched the ceiling.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Brad’s now loved up with Ines but feels ‘weighed down’ by the court battle with Ange<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Angelina also admitted she had put her arms around Brad\u2019s neck in self-defence of what she claims as his attempts to attack one of their children.\u00a0
No charges were brought against Brad but the couple\u2019s four older children have \u2018virtually no contact\u2019 with their dad, with Shiloh dropping the \u2018Pitt\u2019 from her surname when she turned 18 earlier this year.\u00a0
Now the source says that after going public with his new girlfriend, jewellery designer Ines De Ramon -who he is believed to have been dating since 2022 – in September, Brad has moved on with his life, but that the shadow of his divorce from Angelina is still looming over him.
The source says, \u2018Brad has so many reasons to be happy right now, his career is going great, he\u2019s madly in love, he has a wonderful group of friends. The only thing weighing him down is the situation with his kids and the court case.
\u2018He\u2019s done with trying to appease Angelina or beg her to see reason. He\u2019s seen how pointless that is. That\u2019s why he\u2019s throwing everything he\u2019s got at this court case over Chateau Miraval.\u00a0
\u2018He\u2019s fighting back and standing up for his legacy and he has no intention of backing down. He\u2019s convinced that once this goes to trial, which may not happen for another year, or even two, he will be vindicated.\u2019\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Chateau Miraval estate is at the centre of Brad & Ange’s bitter dispute<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
However, with a date yet to be set, their divorce battle could continue into 2026, with the source adding that Angelina is also adamant that she won\u2019t back down.\u00a0
They say, \u2018Of course, Angelina\u2019s convinced she\u2019s in the right and is complaining that Brad is using his lawyers, and endless resources, to bully her.\u00a0
\u2018Her conscience is clear about the way she handled Miraval because she did offer him the right to buy it. She only went elsewhere when he effectively tried to muzzle her to stop her from talking.\u00a0
\u2018She is not going to bend. Angelina is determined to stand up for her rights, not only for herself, but for her children.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
