IMO, she just wanted these records to see if there wa anything in them she could use against him in court.
Who knows if this was a one-off or a pattern of abuse. I tend to think the former, just because as soon as it happened, boom, she filed for divorce. And I don't want to generalize but Angelina Jolie seems like the last person who would be in a DV relationship. I just don't think she would put up with it, especially with the kids.

Re: the winery isn’t she the one who reneged on their agreement and sold her stake to a shady Russian oligarch behind his back, Which he was understandably pissed about? How is that him acting like an abuser? If you’re in Europe right now and in any kind of business with Russians, it’s a fucking nightmare because of sanctions and banks and companies not wanting to touch you. She went through the courts to get permission to sell. That's hardly behind his back. They apparently didn't have any kind of written agreement. He had plenty of opportunity to buy out her half if he didn't want partners. I get that dealing with a Russian company would be difficult right now, but this all took place before the war in Ukraine when nobody would have batted an eye at selling to Russians. That's not how he made it seem to the press though.

Did he drop an entire barrel of wine on the control panels? Unless they have hand-painted wallpaper hanging on the walls of the plane, I don't understand this number.
I agree with everyone that Ange should let it go. At least 3 of the kids are out of high school by now and this is obviously not going to help any of them.

Maybe it wasn't the first time. Maybe it was just the first/worst time. Or maybe it was the first time in front of the kids. For some people that is a deal-breaker.

Honestly I have no issue with her divorcing him for this regardless if it was the first or hundredandfirst time he did it. Her actions now are coming across as the crazy one.
It's been 6? 7? years now and at this point the only people benefitting from this divorce are the lawyers that are getting paid bank.
14th September 2016....

Does Brad get to see the children? Just curious, I never see them photographed with him.

The first sign for me that this relationship was on the downhill slide was actually the marriage.

MsDark Same. I just had a feeling that was the beginning of the end. Did he drop an entire barrel of wine on the control panels? Unless they have hand-painted wallpaper hanging on the walls of the plane, I don't understand this number. I agree with everyone that Ange should let it go. At least 3 of the kids are out of high school by now and this is obviously not going to help any of them. I know! Itthough that they might have special flame/fire retardant but... "Common issues–like spilled drinks or food–are considered when creating plane carpet and flooring. Because of this, many aircraft carpets are designed to be spill-proof, eliminating the worry of permanently damaging carpet. It also helps with the hassle of cleaning up messes. Safety measures are put into place as well when making aircraft carpet and flooring. This means additional standards for fire and flammability are put into place. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has requirements in place for flame resistance in carpeting" That makes sense and is pretty much what I thought. I mean, a little bit of turbulence shouldn't means tens of thousands of dollars in damages, but now I'm just imagining Brad uncorking bottle after bottle of wine and pouring it out everywhere...

The first sign for me that this relationship was on the downhill slide was actually the marriage. I think a lot of us have seen it play out in normal people's lives. A couple is together for years and years and suddenly marry then divorce almost as quickly because getting married doesn't work out so well as a last ditch quick fix to save a failing relationship.

^ This. And another phenomenon, unmarried couple breaks up after years and years together, and within a year, the guy is married to someone else.

This article sums up much better than I can my feelings on this matter. What’s she’s dragged out for so long is not letting this piece of shit have unsupervised visitation with the kids, is my guess. Brad Pitt Is Sketchy AF By Dustin Rowles | Celebrity | August 19, 2022 | Before Courtney Enlow — and later Kayleigh Donaldson — started writing for us, I didn’t completely grasp the intricacies of celebrity gossip. Whenever a publication cited a “source,” I just assumed it was some rando cousin or an unrelated partygoer or maybe a domestic worker dishing for cash. After reading a lot of Courtney and Kayleigh’s pieces, I realized what was obvious to others: These “sources” are actually representatives for the celebrities and the reps fight proxy wars in the media on behalf of their clients. I get it now. I can read between the lines. To wit: Brad Pitt has a very good publicist, and you can tell by the way that the newly released FBI report is covered in a publication that is friendly to Pitt (say, People) versus the way it is covered in a publication that is not particularly friendly to Pitt (say, Page Six). You read People and some other gossip magazines, and it’s all, “This is old news. We went over this six years ago. No charges were filed. No one even considered bringing charges. Why is this even being brought up now?” But if you read another publication covering the same story, there are actual photos of bruises, reports that a drunken Pitt “grabbed her by her head,” “grabbed her by the shoulders,” shook her, pushed her into the bathroom wall, and yelled at her, “You’re f-king up this family” while the kids were crying and trying to protect their mother from the drunk man who poured beer on his wife. Pitt allegedly yelled in response, “‘No, Mommy’s not OK. She’s ruining this family. She’s crazy,’” the report stated. According to Jolie, that comment prompted one of their children to retaliate: “It’s not her, it’s you, you p—k,” which she said enraged Pitt. The actress then alleged that she saw him run toward one of the children “like he was going to attack,” at which point she said she got Pitt into a chokehold that he tried to break by throwing himself back and pushing her into the chairs behind them … … During the fight, Jolie also claimed that Pitt had said of one of their children “looks like a f—ing Columbine kid,” as we reported. Pitt, however, has played the game masterfully in the years since with well-placed puff pieces about his sobriety, his painting, meditation, his perfect Oscar campaign, his rekindled friendship with Jennifer Aniston, and his preference for room temperature water over cold (remember that Pajiba debate?) Couples have arguments. Couples fight over parenting. Couples typically do not have the FBI called in after the drunk husband causes $25,000 damage to a private jet. Meanwhile, you’d think from some headlines today that Brad Pitt’s Make-It-Right Foundation had settled with post-Katrina homeowners for $20.5 million out of the goodness of Pitt’s heart. “Hopefully this agreement will allow everyone to look ahead to other opportunities to continue to strengthen this proud community,” said Brad Pitt, quoted in the subhead for the People magazine piece. Y’all: Brad Pitt sold sh*tty homes that immediately began to fall apart to post-Katrina homeowners, some of whom put their life savings into these homes. And they were bad houses plagued by mold, electrical fires, and unclean water. That was in 2006. Homeowners only sued Pitt’s foundation in 2018 after the foundation completely ignored complaints and ghosted them. “I am incredibly grateful for Global Green’s willingness to step up and provide this important support for the Lower Ninth families,” Pitt said in a statement. “We collaborated in the early days post-Katrina and we are very fortunate to have Global Green’s generous continuing commitment to help address the challenges around these homes and others in need.” Dude, you sold them sh*tty substandard housing, and no one is “stepping up” here. You’re settling a $20 million lawsuit because you have to, because you sold these people 109 homes that began to fall apart immediately after homeowners moved in. “Continuing commitment,” my ass. They’ve been living in moldy, crap houses for 14 years because they couldn’t afford to leave, and you and your foundation abandoned them. Source: Guardian Pajiba
