Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has revealed the specifics of her brawl with ex-husband Brad Pitt in a private plane in 2016. She claimed that she was Jolie, that “Pett poured alcohol and beaten me and my children.”
According to the New York Times (NYT) and Variety on the 4th (local time), Jolie filed a countersuit once morest Pitt’s first claim for damages related to a French winery in the Los Angeles Court.
The couple ended up divorced in September 2016 following fighting fiercely on a private plane returning to California following a two-week vacation with their six children.
“As soon as Pete boarded the plane, he grabbed my hair and assaulted me, as well as attacking my children,” Jolie said in a complaint filed with the court.
According to the complaint, Pete dragged Jolie to the bathroom at the back of the plane shortly following boarding the plane. Pete grabbed Jolie’s hair and shook it, then grabbed his shoulder and pushed it once morest the bathroom wall.
Jolie claims that when one of the children spoke to defend the mother, Pete ran at the child, and Jolie grabbed him from behind to prevent it.
The warden also contained the beginning of the fight. Pitt accused Jolie of being “too deferential” with her children, and the fight began when she yelled at Jolie in the bathroom.
