Angelina Jolie’s Ongoing Court Battle With Brad Pitt ‘Costing a Fortune’ and ‘Draining Her Mentally’

Angelina Jolie continues to wage war with Brad Pitt nine years after their bitter split — and sources tell the National Enquirer that the endless turmoil threatens to blow up her future as she fears facing financial ruin.

The mom of six, 50, reached a divorce settlement with Brad in 2024 after a costly eight-year battle. But the feuding exes are still forking out big bucks for legal eagles after Brad, 61, slapped the Maleficent star with a lawsuit over her 2021 deal to sell her share of their $500 million French estate, Château Miraval, per People.

“The longer this case goes on the more anxiety and trauma it causes Angelina, especially as she’s got so much to lose,” reveals an insider. “Brad and his pit-bull lawyers are out for blood, she knows that, so the very real prospect of total financial ruin keeps her up night after night.

“She’s totally committed to fighting this case with everything she’s got. There’s no other choice, but it’s costing a fortune and draining her mentally.”

In his suit, the F1 heartthrob alleged Angie acted unlawfully, claiming she violated a prior agreement that neither one would sell the sprawling French property without mutual agreement.

The pair have traded blows back and forth in legal filings, with the actress accusing her ex of “waging an addictive war against” her ever since their split.

Angie has also insisted that she was well within her rights to pocket $64 million from the sale of Château Miraval, where the former lovebirds tied the knot in 2014.

As Enquirer readers know, Angie is also exploring options for a move overseas as she’s keen to build a new life abroad with her kids: Maddox, 24, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 17.

Adding to the acrimony between the former A-list couple, the youngsters have all sided with Angie since the divorce, although Brad privately maintains they’ve been poisoned against him by his spiteful ex.

Adds the insider: “People have this perception of Angelina as this cold-hearted ice queen but she’s showing a real vulnerability right now as this Château Miraval case comes to a head.”

“She’s sticking tight to her kids and trying to power through all the upheaval but the longer it goes on the more demoralized and vulnerable she feels.”
