The Long Divorce Battle Ends: Jolie Scores $80 Million

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's eight-year divorce battle finally comes to a close. Their split, initiated in 2016 following years of marriage, was no easy task. Despite a prenuptial agreement, Jolie's finances got a significant boost. The main boost came from the sale of her share in their shared French winery, Château Miraval. She sold 50% to Tenute del Mondo for a whopping $64 million. Even though the divorce is settled, a dispute over this property continues. Their divorce wasn't just about assets. It involved allegations of abuse and delays due to disagreements. Pitt is reportedly relieved to have this weight lifted. After all, the legal battle took a toll. He had been supporting Jolie and their six kids financially. A notable sale was Jolie's Winston Churchill painting, “Tower of the Koutoubia Mosque, ” which fetched $11. 5 million at Christie's in 2021. This painting was a gift from Pitt. However, not everything was sold or settled. There's still a shared superyacht worth $323 million, and its ownership status remains unclear. Pitt, with a net worth of $400 million, and Jolie, still one of Hollywood's highest-paid actresses, had a prenuptial agreement to keep individual assets and split joint capital. Now, they can finally move forward separately.
