Angelina Jolie’s recently leaked court filing has reignited controversy over her tumultuous divorce from Brad Pitt, detailing allegations of a 2016 private flight incident where Pitt allegedly attacked Jolie and their children. According to the filing, Pitt “grabbed Jolie by the head, shook her, and pushed her into the bathroom wall.” He is also accused of “choking one child and striking another.”
The alleged altercation began mid-flight after Pitt accused Jolie of being “too deferential” to their children. The family reportedly remained confined to the plane for 20 minutes after landing due to Pitt’s hostility. Jolie filed for divorce just days later, citing her “family’s well-being.”
The couple’s ongoing legal battles, including disputes over custody and their Château Miraval winery, have drawn public scrutiny. Jolie accuses Pitt of abusive behavior, which he has vehemently denied. Authorities cleared him of the allegations following an investigation.
Pitt’s lawyer stated, “Brad has owned what he’s responsible for but won’t own anything he didn’t do.” Social media reactions remain polarized, reflecting the lasting impact of this high-profile saga.
