The ongoing legal battle between Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has taken a new turn with startling claims made by Jolie in relation to their French winery, Château Miraval.

The actress has alleged that Pitt was physically abusive towards her long before their highly publicized private plane incident in 2016.

Reports from the infamous flight suggest that Jolie accused her then-husband of physically assaulting her by grabbing her head, shaking her, and even pouring beer on her during a heated argument that involved one of their six children.

According to recent filings, the history of Pitt’s alleged physical abuse towards Jolie predates the 2016 plane incident, with Jolie claiming that Pitt directed his aggression towards their children for the first time during that flight.

Insiders have revealed that Jolie, 48, is on a mission to take down Pitt, 60, and is prepared to go to extreme lengths to achieve her goal.

It has been disclosed that Jolie has secretly recorded Pitt multiple times during their marriage and has explicitly warned him that she will not hesitate to use the recordings against him.

One inside source mentioned that Jolie strategically leaks stories to the media when she feels disadvantaged in their ongoing legal dispute or when Pitt seems to be forming strong connections with their children, including Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne.

The informant also hinted that Pitt may be undeterred by Jolie’s threats due to the potentially damaging nature of the recordings she possesses.

The source suggested that making these recordings public could harm Jolie just as much, if not more, than Pitt, as they reveal the raw and unfiltered dynamics of their relationship behind closed doors.

The back-and-forth battle continues unabated, with Pitt reportedly withdrawing his custody case in a bid to appease Jolie, only to realize that it did not yield the desired results.

Instead, it is believed that his actions further fueled Jolie’s determination to seek retribution against him for what she perceives as a tumultuous period in their shared history.
