A Psychotherapist Deemed Brad Pitt "Selfless" Amid Abusive Claims By Angelina Jolie
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie still haven't finalized their messy divorce, nearly 8 years since filing.
A huge cause of conflict is their fight over their vineyard, which Angelina has been trying to sell for a while now. She wants to sell her half of it, and Brad Pitt is trying to stop her, as that would mean he wouldn't have the majority of the shares. He's been sued for this decision only recently, and a new accusation against him has now surfaced.
Brad Pitt Is Reportedly Fighting Angelina Jolie To 'Punish' Her
As most fans surely know, Angelina Jolie was the one who filed for divorce first, and according to new sources who spoke to PEOPLE recently, Brad Pitt is still not over the fact that she left him. Their divorce has been a lengthy and aggressive war, with several legal battles keeping them at each other's throats, and one of the biggest points of contention has been their shared winery.
For a while now, Angelina Jolie has wanted to sell her shares, but Brad Pitt has been fighting her over the claim that he should retain the controlling interest. A source close to Angelina has shared that the actress believes he's only fighting her as a way to get revenge for her leaving the marriage.
The insider said that Brad Pitt and his team know they won't win, as "these NDAs are never going to see the light of day at trial." They are referring to the fact that a judge ordered Angelina Jolie to produce eight years' worth of NDAs.
They went on to say that "this is all for the press," and that the actor and his team "also know that this will force Angelina to spend resources tracking all of this information down, which is just another way to drain her resources and punish her for leaving."
Sources Close To Brad Pitt Dispute This
This claim from sources coming from Angelina Jolie's camp has been immediately denied by sources close to Brad Pitt, who rushed to share "the other side" of the matter.
“The other side introduced the NDA issue into what is a straightforward business dispute, so it's ironic that they are now complaining about it," the insider responded, "And they are the ones who were greatly enriched from violating the parties' agreement in selling the business."

Angelina is reportedly glad Brad's alleged abusive history is out there, even though he's trying to move forward in a new relationship.
They went on to question Angelina Jolie's credibility, remarking that, contrary to what the previous source claimed, Brad Pitt has ample chance of winning, as the NDAs will reveal the truth about her "purported justifications for refusing to adhere to her contractual obligations to Pitt" when she sold her shares.
Finally, the insider called the recent court order a "significant blow to the credibility" of Angelina Jolie's claims and a "strong statement challenging them to match their rhetoric with actual facts, which they consistently have not been able to do."
Only time will tell if the actors will ever reach a conclusion to the legal battle they have been fighting since 2016.
