A judge is “inclined” to side with Brad Pitt in the latest battle with ex-wife Angelina Jolie

A judge is “inclined” to side with Brad Pitt in the latest battle of his long-running dispute with ex-wife Angelina Jolie.

The former couple have been locked in a legal row over their French winery Chateau Miraval and at a hearing on Thursday (16.05.24), Judge Lia Martin said she was ready to agree to a motion filed by the ‘Moneyball’ star that would force his former spouse into turning over all the non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) she has entered into since they married in 2014, including those signed by her staff, MailOnline reports.

Angelina’s attorneys disagreed with the tentative ruling, with lawyer Paul Murphy asking her to consider several factors, including to limit the release of the NDAs signed by Jolie only in 2020 to 2021, and not any related to her companies.

But the judge said: “I don’t see this as a character question.

“There may be agreements that [Jolie] entered into with people that may have terms similar or not. The court is not making any findings today about admissibility of the documents.”

In a recent filing, the 60-year-old actor – who has Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 17, and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox with Angelina – alleged former security guard Tony Webb was told the ‘Maleficent’ star had instructed the kids not to speak to their father during custody visits.

The paperwork also claimed Angelina, 48, attempted to use non-disclosure agreements to threaten her security team to stay silent.
