The ongoing legal disputes stem from Jolie’s sale of her stake in their jointly owned French winery, Château Miraval, to Russian businessman Yuri Shefler. Pitt, unhappy with the sale, challenged it in court, but Jolie recently scored a victory when a judge ordered Pitt to provide documents she alleges will prove he concealed domestic abuse allegations.
Strict Parenting Style
Despite her legal struggles, Jolie is said to remain a hands-on parent to her six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne. The actress reportedly has high expectations for her kids, requiring them to contribute to household chores, stay active, and choose their social circles carefully.

“She’s very strict, but it’s coming from a place of love,” the insider said, adding that her children appreciate breaks when Jolie is in one of her moods.
Jolie is also grappling with anxiety over her daughter Shiloh, 18, preparing for independence as she pursues her passion for dance.
A Complicated Family History
The Jolie-Pitt marriage ended in 2016 following an alleged altercation on a private jet involving their eldest son, Maddox. While Pitt was cleared of wrongdoing by the FBI and the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services, Jolie has continued to allege a history of physical abuse.
Since 2017, Jolie and her family have resided in an 11,000-square-foot home in Los Feliz, where insiders describe her as strict but loving.
