Angelina Jolie in court fight with ex Brad Pitt over wine firm stake

Angelina Jolie in court fight with ex-husband Brad Pitt as she tries to sell her stake in their wine firm


Angelina Jolie wants to unfreeze the assets so she can sell her stake in Nouvel LLC

Angelina Jolie has asked a judge to let her sell her share of a wine business she owns with ex-husband Brad Pitt. 

The filmmaker and campaigner wants to unfreeze the assets so she can sell her stake in Nouvel LLC, a Luxembourg-based company with interests in the Chateau Miraval vineyard, which she and Once Upon A Time In Hollywood star Pitt, 57, bought in France in 2011. 

Jolie, 46, said she has an interested buyer but she claims to be worried they might back out if the assets remain frozen while Oscar-winner Pitt’s team considers the matter.

The actress has therefore filed a petition in Los Angeles calling for the temporary restraining order on their assets to be removed. 

Jolie and Pitt, 57, were declared legally single in 2019.
