Another way Angelina Jolie could greatly hurt the image of her former spouse Brad Pitt, is planning to write a tell-all book. This happens against the backdrop of their long court battle of ownership of the French Vineyard, Chateau Miraval. The present scathing back and forth has taken years to unfold and is reported to be a key sticking point in debate and catalyst to Jolie contemplating a tell-all.
The sources indicate that Jolie feels that she is being legally stuck and is losing all her money to her financial resources due to a high cost of the litigation process. Not only would a memoir give her a platform to tell her version of events, but it could be a crucial financial gateway as reports indicate it has the potential of making more than 50 million dollars. This step is considered to be the effort of Jolie to take back the control and bring the continual conflict over the winery situation to an end perhaps by a compulsory solution.
The Winery Feud at the Heart of the Battle
The court dispute of Chateau Miraval started in the year 2022 with Brad Pitt filing a complaint against Angelina Jolie over the sale of her share in the winery to a third party who is not in agreement with Brad Pitt. Pitt purports that there was an agreement between them not to sell their opposing shares without each other’s consent. He has argued that he had invested a lot of time and money in changing Miraval into a money-making venture and that what Jolie was doing was aimed at destroying him.
Jolie on the other hand filed a countersuit where she asserted that she had attempted to sell her share to Pitt in exchange, but he later got cold feet when she refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) that would have left her unable to speak out of his alleged abuse. The trial is yet to conclude, and both parties have filed motions and have attempted to access some of their own identities in the sameness of private correspondence to prove the case. The controversy has turned into a very visible and bitter battle.
The Potential Fallout and NDA Controversy
The possible tell-all memoir poses a serious jeopardy to the image of Brad Pitt, whose image was relatively clean despite earlier allegations of spouse abuse. The memoir would provide a personal testimonial of their affair and other supposed details of their rancorous breakup which a source alleges may have a permanent effect on his reputation. The NDA stink bold is a very essential aspect of the feud. The legal team of Jolie has claimed that Pitt demanded a broad NDA as a way to hide his nature of personal misconduct and to keep her silent. The argument by Pitt then side is that NDAs are a routine procedure in the business.
This controversy regarding the NDA shows how this legal battle is expressly personal and how the outcomes can be extremely important to the parties in the event that the revelations are aired in the public. The memoir would in a way be Jolie finding a way around the same silence which she thinks Pitt has attempted to silence her with.
