Angelina Jolie has asked Brad Pitt to “end the fighting.”
The “Wanted” actress’ lawyer asked her ex-husband to drop his lawsuit over their winery, Château Miraval property — which they shared 50/50 stake in until 2021.
Jolie’s legal representation Paul Murphy told Page Six in a statement that Pitt “has control of all the properties the couple shared as well as control of the business, but still he demands more, and is suing Angelina for $67 million plus punitive damages.”

“In doing so, Pitt placed squarely at issue why he tried to punish and control Angelina by demanding a newly expanded NDA to cover his personal misconduct and abuse. Those actions are central to these proceedings. We are not at all surprised Mr. Pitt is afraid to turn over the documents demonstrating these facts,” the statement continued.
“While Angelina again asks Mr. Pitt to end the fighting and finally put their family on a clear path toward healing, unless Mr. Pitt withdraws his lawsuit, Angelina has no choice but to obtain the evidence necessary to prove his allegations wrong.”
Pitt and Jolie’s legal battle began when the actress decided to sell her shares of the winery. Pitt later filed a lawsuit claiming that Jolie’s sale went against their agreement that he would buy her shares.

Jolie, 49, responded to Pitt’s lawsuit in April alleging that Pitt, 60, renegotiated the previous agreement when he refused to buy her shares in the wine property unless she agreed to sign a broader NDA , which she claims was an attempt to suppress his alleged abuse of her and her children. Pitt’s lawyers have vehemently denied this claim.

Since their 2016 split, Pitt and Jolie have been involved in a nasty custody fight .
It was reported earlier this month that the “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” actor has “virtually no contact” with his adult children and “limited visits” with his youngest kids: twins, Knox and Vivienne, 15.
They also share Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18.
