In court documents filed July 25 and obtained by Fox News Digital, Jolie's attorneys argued that the "Maleficent" star and their children were "victims of Pitt’s purportedly ‘private’ abuse and cover-up." Jolie's legal team claimed that Pitt forced her to sign the NDA in order to "silence" her claims of abuse to protect his reputation.
Pitt has vehemently disputed the allegations, calling them a "desperate" attempt to distract from her own actions. A source close to Pitt told Fox News Digital that the legal battle is "just the latest example of them harming the entire family by making it personal."

The ongoing dispute stems from Jolie's 2021 sale of her 50% stake in Château Miraval, the former couple's French winery, to Tenute Del Mondo, a subsidiary of the Stoli Group. Pitt has fought the sale, claiming that it breached a contract between the two.
According to Jolie's company, Nouvel, Pitt has engaged in a "vindictive campaign" to "loot" the profitable business since her divorce filing in 2016. Nouvel accuses Pitt of "hijacking" Château Miraval and "wasting" its assets on unnecessary renovation projects.
