7 Shocking New Revelations About Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie's Endless Legal War In 2025
The "Brangelina" saga, once Hollywood’s most captivating romance, has devolved into one of its most protracted and bitter legal battles, with new, explosive details continuing to emerge in 2025. What began as a high-profile divorce filing in 2016 has stretched into a complex, multi-front war involving property, custody, and high-stakes business disputes.
As of late 2024 and early 2025, the couple finally finalized their marital property settlement, a milestone nearly a decade in the making, yet the fight over their French winery, Château Miraval, has only intensified. The public continues to track the lives of both A-list stars as they navigate new relationships, major career moves, and the lasting impact of their turbulent separation.

The Bitter End: Finalizing the Divorce and Property Settlement (2024/2025)
For years, the status of their marriage was a confusing public spectacle. While a judge declared them "legally single" in 2019, the true finality of the divorce—the division of their substantial assets—remained unresolved until late 2024.
The full settlement of their marital and property rights was finally reached in December 2024. This landmark agreement brought an end to the financial entanglement of their marriage, but it did not, however, resolve the most contentious asset they shared: the Château Miraval winery. The finalization of the divorce settlement allows both stars to fully move on with their individual financial and personal lives. The protracted nature of the split highlights the immense complexity of dividing assets accumulated by two of the world's highest-earning celebrities.
The Château Miraval War: A Legal Battle That Rages On
The dispute over Château Miraval, the French estate and successful rosé wine business where they married in 2014, has become the primary battleground in 2025.
Pitt has been suing Jolie since 2022 after she sold her stake in the property—a $67 million share—to Tenute del Mondo, a subsidiary of the Stoli Group, owned by Russian oligarch Yuri Shefler. Pitt claims this sale was conducted secretly and violated their agreement not to sell their shares without the other's consent. He views the sale as a calculated effort to harm his interest in the business he invested heavily in.
Pitt's Procedural Win Over Private Messages
In a significant procedural victory for Brad Pitt in late 2024/early 2025, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ordered Angelina Jolie to turn over private messages related to the sale of her stake in the winery.
Pitt's legal team sought access to communications between Jolie and third parties, including text messages, arguing they are crucial to understanding the intent behind the sale and whether it was designed to undermine Pitt's control of the business. This ruling is a major development, suggesting the court is taking a serious look at the circumstances surrounding Jolie's decision to sell to the Stoli Group.
Custody and the Six Jolie-Pitt Children in 2025
The custody arrangement for their six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne—remains a highly sensitive and complex issue. The children range in age from their early teens to their early twenties in 2025, with the older children now legally adults.
The couple shares three adopted children (Maddox, Pax, and Zahara) and three biological children (Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne).
The Current Custody Status
While the initial, intense custody dispute stretched on for years, the final terms are believed to involve a joint custody arrangement. However, reports indicate that Angelina Jolie is expected to retain primary physical custody of the minor children, a key point of contention throughout the legal proceedings. The involvement of private judges and the highly confidential nature of the details have kept the specifics of the current co-parenting schedule largely out of the public eye.
Moving Forward: Brad Pitt's New Chapter and Angelina Jolie's Career Focus
With the divorce settlement finalized, both stars have clearly shifted focus toward their individual futures, both professionally and personally.
Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon
Brad Pitt has entered a new, serious relationship with jewelry executive Ines de Ramon, who is significantly younger than him. The couple, who were first linked in 2022, are reportedly "fully living together" in 2025. This public commitment marks Pitt's first serious long-term relationship since the split from Jolie, signaling a definitive personal move forward. They have been seen together at high-profile events, including a double date with Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid.
Angelina Jolie's Return to Film
Angelina Jolie is channeling her energy into her career and humanitarian work. Her upcoming film slate for 2025 is robust, including *Couture*, a French drama, and a spy thriller directed by Doug Liman, whom she previously worked with on *Mr. & Mrs. Smith*. This intense focus on new projects—many of which are set to debut in 2025—demonstrates a professional resurgence. Her work as a filmmaker and her commitment to global causes remain central to her public identity.
The Brangelina split continues to be a defining moment in Hollywood history, not for the romance it was, but for the unprecedented legal war it became. As the Miraval dispute heats up with new court orders in 2025, the world watches to see if this final, bitter chapter will ever truly close.
