Brad Pitt, who shares three biological children with Angelina Jolie, made a surprising legal move in their ongoing legal battle.
As the 61-year-old actor had a troubled relationship with Angelina, Brad recently revealed his demands towards the 50-year-old actress.
In recent filings, the F1 star appealed for getting an access of the Maleficent lead’s private conversations with Alexey Oliynik.
According to Us Weekly, the two-time Academy Award winner claimed that the text messages are crucial to the ongoing dispute over their winery.
Brad alleged that the private conversations might hold relevant information about the transactions and dealings with the Mr. and Mrs. Smith star.
The actor alleged the text exchange are related “directly to his core claims,” as dished by the outlet.
After splitting ways, the Academy Award winner sold her shares of a vineyard, which the couple bough together during their marriage.
The actress and Alexey closed the deal, which was heavily contested by the two-time Golden Globe winner. He then took his complaint to the court.
On the other hand, the Alexey denied turning over the documents as evidence and appearing for the disposition in the lawsuit.
The employee of Stoli Group insisted that he cannot be forced to come to California as he is resident in Switzerland.
The Hollywood A-lister faced a major setback after his and Angelina’s children decided to side with their mother.
Shiloh, Zahara and Vivienne reportedly dropped their father’s name, using Jolie as their surname.
