Angelina Jolie May Have Secretly Recorded Brad Pitt’s Alleged Physical Abuse for Years

Angelina Jolie is reportedly ready to go nuclear when it comes to her legal battle with ex Brad Pitt. Recently, the alleged abuse she dealt with while she was married to Brad has started making headlines all over again as the former couple continues to fight over their French winery. But it sounds like this fight is bigger than just the winery. In her filing, Angelina reignited the conversation about what happened during the plane ride that led to her and Brad’s divorce. Although we may have thought she told the whole story at the time, it seems she had been keeping some things to herself. She’s not spilling all the tea just yet, but if this intel is true, it may not be long before she does.

Angelina reportedly has a secret weapon.

Multiple sources told In Touch that Angelina is determined to bring Brad down, and she has the evidence that could do it. “Angelina secretly recorded Brad many times throughout their marriage and has made it clear to him that she’s willing to use them to get back at him,” one source claimed.

The source also said Angelina will leak stories to the press when it appears things aren’t going her way or Brad attempts to get closer to their six children.

That strategy could backfire, though.

The same source claims that the tapes may not have their desired effect. “It will do as much damage — if not more — to Angie if they’re made public,” the insider said, adding that both Angelina and Brad would be destroyed “if people saw how they behaved behind closed doors. They were as bad as each other.”

Angelina could reveal there's more abuse than we know about.

In a new court filing related to the former couple’s yearslong fight over their French winery, Château Miraval, Angelina alleged that the 2016 plane ride wasn’t the first time Brad had abused her.

“While Pitt’s history of physical abuse of Jolie started well before the family’s September 2016 plane trip from France to Los Angeles, this flight marked the first time he turned his physical abuse on the children as well,” the filing read. Although past abuse is alleged, no details were given about when it occurred or what exactly happened.

Brad is apparently trying to silence her.

Angelina filed this most recent motion earlier this month with the Los Angeles Superior Court. According to CNN, in the motion, she claims she tried to sell Brad her stake in the winery but that their negotiations broke down after he put a condition on the sale: Angelina would have to sign a nondisclosure agreement, or NDA, that “prohibited Jolie from speaking (other than in court) about Pitt’s abuse of Jolie and their children by attempting to tie Pitt’s personal reputation to Miraval’s business.”

Angelina has receipts.

“At trial, Jolie will prove through testimony, emails, photographs, and other evidence why Pitt was so concerned about his own misconduct that he blew up his own deal to purchase Jolie’s interest in Miraval because she refused to agree to his new, expansive NDA,” the filing claims.

Angelina claimed she agreed to sign an NDA “limited to not disparaging Miraval’s wine business” as a part of her initial deal to sell her stake in the business, and they were close to finalizing at the time.
