Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt may finally be moving toward peace after years of legal disputes. According to insiders, the former couple is considering a truce to end their ongoing battle, which has continued even after their divorce was finalized in December 2024.
“Ten Years of Fighting Is Long Enough”
A source told Closer Online that both Jolie and Pitt are weighing a settlement path to avoid further hearings. “Ten years of fighting is long enough,” the insider said, adding that both sides have made their points and it is time to compromise. The source emphasized that 2026 should be the year the matter is resolved. The dispute largely centers on Château Miraval, the French winery the couple once co-owned. Jolie sold her stake to Stoli’s wine unit in 2022, sparking a series of lawsuits and countersuits that remain active.
Legal Proceedings Continue
Despite talk of a truce, the legal process is still unfolding. In December 2025, a judge ordered Jolie to turn over “unredacted” communications related to the winery deal. Her attorney, Paul Murphy, expressed disappointment with the ruling and confirmed plans to appeal. Court deadlines and discovery requirements continue to keep the case alive, but insiders suggest both stars are ready to put the matter behind them.
Family and Reputation at Stake
Beyond business, the dispute carries personal weight. Jolie and Pitt share six children, with their youngest, twins Knox and Vivienne, turning 18 this July. Sources note that the prolonged battle has taken a toll on both families and reputations.
Refocusing on Careers
Both actors remain busy professionally. Jolie recently starred in Maria and is set to appear in Sunny. Pitt, meanwhile, headlined the sports drama F1 and is linked to a Cliff Booth spin-off from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. A truce would allow the former couple to shift focus back to their careers and family life rather than ongoing court filings. While no official agreement has been reached, the possibility of compromise signals a potential end to one of Hollywood’s most high-profile legal battles.
