Jolie does not allege that she was seeking financial independence in the abstract; she alleges that she was seeking \u2018financial independence from her ex-husband.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSeparating from one\u2019s ex-husband is categorically different from an allegation that one is suffering general financial distress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nPitt and Jolie split in 2016, with their divorce finalised in December 2024.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/brad-pitt-wants-angelina-jolie-hand-movie-earnings-amid-winery-battle-1448567.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 August 2026 Brad Pitt has asked a court to order his ex-wife Angelina Jolie to hand over her movie earnings amid their ongoing bitter legal battle.
