The lawsuit claimed Mr Pitt tried to ‘secretly move assets’ from their co-owned business to his friends and other companies, spent ‘millions on vanity projects’, and gave away half the company’s trademarks to a friend for free.
Nouvel claims Pitt’s alleged scheme meant Ms Jolie would ‘never see a dime’ of Chateau Miraval’s ‘tens of millions of dollars in profits.’
Mr Pitt has claimed he and his ex-wife both agreed not to sell their stake in the property without approving it with each other as they were both owners
He has since accused Ms Jolie of selling her portion of the winery with the intent to willfully ‘inflict harm’ by entering into the sale with a total ‘stranger,’ thus violating their agreement.
