Actor Brad Pitt (“Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”) believes his ex-wife, actress and director Angelina Jolie (“Maleficent”) is trying to harm him by making public the details of a brawl the couple has had on board a plane in 2016.
At the time, Pitt allegedly threw beer at Angelina Jolie and assaulted her, which led to the couple’s separation. He was also accused of grabbing her by the shoulders and shaking her as she screamed.
This information became known on Tuesday (16/8), after the disclosure of documents from a trial that had previously been carried out anonymously.
“It was investigated and there were no charges,” a source close to Pitt told People magazine, referring to the work of the FBI, which investigated the claim that it took place on an international flight. The Los Angeles Department of Child and Family Services also listened to witnesses and cleared Pitt. “They investigated. They prepared the materials, went through them together and decided not to report him,” the source added.
Details of the brawl came to light after Jolie sued the FBI, “anonymously,” so much so that the investigation documents were made public.
But the source heard by People claims that both Pitt and Jolie have had access to the documents in question for six years and that, in requesting the documents, Jolie only intended to “resuscitate a problem that was painful for everyone and that was solved six years ago. “.
“What are a person’s motives for using court time and public resources to file an anonymous Freedom of Information Act request for material they have had for years? There is only one: inflicting as much pain on their own as possible. ex … There is no benefit to this. It is harmful to children and the whole family that this is made public. “
Despite everything, the source says Pitt is calm about the situation, “considering the frustrations surrounding these circumstances.”
“It’s waves and waves of attempts to damage it,” the source said. “He has been largely silent, except to acknowledge the things he could improve on. He has remained silent on this subject because he knows that it is best for his children, that it is best for everyone. He has kept that. position despite an endless barrage of attacks and attempts to use the courts against him. “
Jolie also hasn’t spoken publicly about the details of the plane crash. But in the meantime, the actress claimed that her quarrel with her ex-husband took place in the back of the plane and that she was drinking at the time of the argument. Jolie claimed that Pitt grabbed her by the shoulders of her and shook her as she yelled, “You’re fucking this family.”
According to the actress, Pitt also allegedly assaulted Maddox after her son, then 15, tried to intervene in the discussion. What the FBI report does, however, is that Pitt swore on one of the children, without specifying which one, saying he looked like “a bloody Columbine boy” – a reference to the teenagers who massacred their peers by gunshot. fire at school in 1999.
The complaint also alleges that Pitt caused more than $ 25,000 in damage to the private plane and that the altercation continued off the flight. Jolie said she suffered injuries and even handed over a photo of her injured elbow to support her allegations.
Shortly after the incident, the celebrity couple divorced, and Pitt publicly decided to quit drinking. No charges were brought against the actor.
Last year, Jolie commented on her divorce. “I’m not the kind of person who makes decisions, like decisions I had to make lightly,” she told British newspaper The Gardian. “It took me a long time to be in a position where I felt I had to part with the father of my children.” At the time, Jolie even mentioned that “there are a lot of things I can’t talk about”.
Pitt commented in a 2017 interview with GQ magazine that “it’s a shame to have certain things unearthed in public and misunderstood.” “I worry more about my children being subject to this,” he noted.
