Brad Pitt is suing ex-wife Angelina Jolie over what he says was the unauthorized sale of her stake in Chateau Miraval, the French wine estate that he says is now successful because of his “sweat equity” and his solo financial investments.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media that a civil case filed Thursday in Los Angeles says Jolie used legal means to skirt their understood contractual terms and sold to an “aggressive third-party competitor” - a conglomerate owned by Russian vodka billionaire Yuri Shefler - that Pitt says is trying to take over his Miraval rosé business.

The couple, who met on the set of the 2005 movie “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” acquired the estate years before getting married there in 2014. Though the two became legally single in 2019, their contentious divorce proceedings are still ongoing.

The lawsuit says Jolie “hid the discussions and declined to disclose the terms of her contemplated deal to Pitt at all. Pitt still does not know what those terms are.
