Angelina Jolie Accuses Brad Pitt of “Coercive” Behavior in Bitter Winery Dispute

A new twist has been added to the high-profile divorce fight between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt after Jolie’s attorney made serious claims against her spouse concerning their joint possession of a French winery, Château Miraval. In a bitter letter that was obtained by Radar Online, Pitt was accused by Jolie’s lawyer of “upsetting” and “coercive” behaviors amidst the ongoing legal battles concerning the land.

Jolie Pulls Out From Talks

Based on the news magazine, the Maleficent actress has chosen to withdraw from participating in all parts of the negotiations for the sale of the winery due to alleged misconduct by her husband. The lawyer said that she is only doing it because she realizes these discussions are completely unhelpful and there is no way they will have fair treatment as equal parties. This occurred after Pitt contested Jolie’s non-disclosure agreement (NDA) claims.

Accusations of Wrongdoing

Jolie’s lawyers contend that this ex-husband attempted to exploit the situation and proffered demands which were inappropriate. The letter continues stating that restrictions imposed by Pitt are “unconstitutionally vague and restrictive, beyond … scope of business …distressing and coercive…so as to be abusive”.

Significant Sacrifices and Personal Concessions

To bring an end to this painful era in her family history, and extricate herself from Miraval; Jolie has reportedly offered major compromises during their financial negotiations. According to her advocate such sacrifices have been made at “the expense even…of a family home as well as financial loss.”
