For the past several years, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been embroiled in a sprawling legal battle against each other. The former husband-and-wife pair met while on the set of 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith. At the time, Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston. Angelia stole Brad away from her, though it seems that she’s grown to regret it. After dating for around a decade, Brad and Angelina finally tied the knot in 2014. However, their marriage would prove short-lived, as an incident on an airplane in 2016 caused Angelina to ask for a divorce. Today, Angelina is revealing more truths about this airplane incident than ever before. Join Facts Verse as we explore new allegations against Brad Pitt.
Why Are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Still in Court?
As of October 2022, former husband and wife Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been embroiled in a sprawling legal battle related to their divorce for over five years. After five years, one might think that all the dirty secrets about the couple would’ve spilled out, but it seems that there are still some juicy tidbits that are just now being revealed. The most interesting things that have been revealed about the legal battle recently include more details about the 2016 airplane incident that allegedly instigated the pair’s divorce.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie finalized their divorce in 2019, and a judge already determined that the two must share 50/50 custody over the six children that they had together. With all of these decisions out of the way, one might wonder why Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are still in court several years later. The reason that Brad and Angelina are in court currently is because of a winery that the two purchased before their marriage. The two owned equal halves of the winery, but it seems that Angelina has since sold her half of the winery to a third party that Brad Pitt has no interest in being involved with. Brad Pitt had wanted to purchase Angelina’s half of the winery himself. According to Angelina, she considered taking up Brad’s offer to purchase her half of the winery, but backed out of the agreement once the actor tried to backhandedly sneak a non-disclosure agreement, or NDA, into the transaction. This NDA had nothing to do with the winery itself, but instead related to Angelina’s ability to communicate the truth about the 2016 airplane incident.
Though Brad Pitt had undeniably wanted to keep his ex-wife’s mouth shut via the introduction of the NDA, it had quite the opposite effect. The introduction of the NDA caused Angelina to retreat from sale negotiations with Brad regarding her share of the winery. Instead, she turned to the aforementioned third party, which is a holding company by the name of the Stoli Group. Not only this, but Angelina was also inspired to bring the 2016 airplane incident back up and reveal more details about it than ever before. It seems that Angelina had good reason to want a divorce from Brad, as he allegedly put his hands on both her and a few of their children during the flight.
The Federal Government’s Account of the Airplane Incident
Federal authorities are the ones with jurisdiction over crimes that occur in the air. Though the initial investigation deemed that there was probable cause to press charges against Brad for the behavior that he exhibited during that 2016 flight, those in charge ended up deciding against it for whatever reason. Since August of 2022, it seems that Angelina Jolie has been doing everything that she can to get her hands on as many official documents as possible in regards to the investigation that occurred into Brad’s behavior on the airplane. It seems that the documents that Angelina has managed to turn up support her side of the story.
As far as Brad Pitt is considered, he claims that he never behaved the way that Angelina alleged on the airplane. However, it seems that the actor’s defense tactics veer more towards keeping his mouth shut than actually defending himself. Regardless of how true Angelina’s account of the 2016 airplane incident is, Brad certainly misbehaved on the flight in a way that warranted some kind of response. The actor was understandably very upset when he woke up one morning to realize that he was now business partners with the Stoli Group. The actor filed a lawsuit against his former wife this year regarding the sale, and it has been a countersuit from her that has brought this new information about the 2016 airplane incident to light. Brad alleges that Angelina was violating his rights when she sold her share of their winery to the Stoli Group, while Angelina disagrees.
Another reason she claims that she was so desperate to give up her share of their winery was that she believes Brad has an alcohol problem. It was allegedly intoxication that caused Brad to misbehave on the airplane, and the actor took some significant steps to become sober after the divorce. Angelina no longer wanted to be involved in alcohol in any way, especially if this involvement found her working as a business partner alongside her abusive ex-husband with an alcohol problem.

Angelina Has Good Reason to Be Digging Up Dirt
Some may wonder why it’s so important for Angelina Jolie to reveal more details about the 2016 airplane incident now when the trial that she and Brad Pitt are involved in is surrounding the matter of their previously shared winery. Angelina is using the introduction of the NDA as a means to defend herself against the accusations that she wrongfully sold her share of the winery, and she’s revealing more about the 2016 airplane incident than ever before because it provides important context for exactly why the actress didn’t want to sign the NDA. Angelina Jolie had actually kept relatively quiet about the incident that catalyzed her and Brad’s divorce beforehand, and she claims this was because she didn’t want her family’s dirty laundry to be public knowledge. However, in the wake of her husband’s recent lawsuit regarding the winery, she had no choice.
Angelina and Brad were flying on the airplane with their six kids, and something occurred that made Brad upset about the way that Angelina was treating them. Apparently, Brad felt that Angelina was being too lenient on the children. This caused Brad to instigate a private conversation with Angelina in their airplane bathroom, away from the ears of the children.
Though Brad and Angelina were likely trying to be discreet when they started fighting in the airplane bathroom, things quickly got out of hand. Angelina claims that, inside the bathroom, her ex-husband got so mad that he grabbed her head and began to shake her. When she tried to get him off, he grabbed her by the shoulders and shoved her into the wall. By this point, the children had likely become well aware that things were not as they should be inside the restroom.
Did Brad Put His Hands on His and Angelina’s Kids?
Brad Pitt allegedly punched the ceiling of the bathroom multiple times before Angelina could escape. Brad followed Angelina out, but one of their children came to her defense. This was when Brad started putting his hands on the kids. When one of the children tried to defend Angelina, Brad allegedly tried to strangle them before his wife pulled him back. Then, he allegedly struck another child. There’s also the matter that, at some point, the actor was said to have poured alcohol all over Angelina and the kids. According to Angelina, the actor was intoxicated during the episode.
The 2016 airplane incident quickly made it into the tabloids, though Angelina Jolie’s silence made it hard to tell exactly what had occurred on the flight. Once it was revealed that the federal government had no intention of pressing charges against Brad Pitt, it seemed like the incident was going to become old news. If Brad had kept his head down, the story of the airplane incident likely would’ve gone away for good.
The statements from the federal government regarding the investigation make it clear that there was probable cause to press charges against Brad Pitt. However, much of the content of the documents pertaining to the case has been officially redacted, which means that it’s still a challenge to determine everything that the authorities found out. It has yet to be determined whether or not the documents substantiate Angelina’s claims that Brad was physically abusive towards any of their children, but the documents certainly seem to support the idea that Brad was abusive towards Angelina.
Jennifer Anniston Dodged a Bullet!
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie met on the set of 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith. In the film, they played a husband and wife that both led secret lives as assassins without the other knowing. At the time of the movie’s filming, Brad Pitt was famously married to Jennifer Anniston. As a result of the extramarital affair that started up between Brad and Angelina during production, Brad and Jennifer were divorced the same year of the film’s release. Brad and Angelina than had six kids and bought the winery in question, where they tied the knot.
If Brad Pitt had kept his mouth shut about ex-wife Angelina Jolie selling off her half of their previously shared winery, then the world wouldn’t still be gossiping about how he supposedly beat Angelina and a few of their kids on a 2016 airplane flight! Now it’s time to hear from you: did you know that Brad Pitt was married to Jennifer Anniston at the time that he became romantically involved with Angelina Jolie, and that Angelina claims Brad was physically abusive to her and their children during a 2016 airplane flight?
