Angelina Jolie was looking cool, calm and collected when she stepped out recently with her youngest daughter Vivienne for a spot of shopping in New York. But appearances can be deceiving!
Insiders say behind her serene façade, the Maleficent star’s life is anything but relaxed as she goes head-to-head with her ex-husband Brad Pitt once again.
The pair – who split in 2016 and have since been embroiled in one of the most toxic divorce settlement processes Hollywood has ever seen – are currently at war in a battle that rivals any movie script.
All six of the couple’s kids − Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 17, and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox – have been living with Angelina, 48, in Los Angeles. However, it’s been suggested that Shiloh has made it clear she wants to move into her dad’s mansion in Los Feliz, California, when she turns 18 next month – which will be a huge blow to Angelina, who has consistently painted a picture of Brad as a controlling, abusive husband and father.
The bitter exes are also warring over whether Angelina had the right to sell her half of the couple’s sprawling $233 million estate in the South of France without Brad’s permission.
Brad’s legal team says Angelina blindsided the Fury star when she informed him in 2021 that she had sold her 50-percent share in Château Miraval, complete with vineyard and award-winning rosé winery, to a Russian billionaire.
