Breaking:Brad Pitt Slams Angelina Jolie’s ‘Intrusive’ Request to Disclose His Messages About Plane Incident Aftermath

Brad Pitt is accusing Angelina Jolie of taking “intrusive” measures in their ongoing winery case.

In the legal battle over Jolie’s sale of the former couple’s French winery Château Miraval, her legal team has requested Pitt disclose third-party communications he had about the 2016 family plane ride that led to Jolie filing for divorce.

Pitt’s lawyers, in new court documents obtained by PEOPLE, call Jolie’s requests “wide-ranging and intrusive,” as well as a “sensationalist fishing expedition.” They asked for her motion to be denied.

They claim Pitt “voluntarily offered to produce documents sufficient to show everything that occurred on the flight that precipitated the ex-couple’s divorce — the event that Jolie alleges made Pitt’s NDA request so offensive here.”

His lawyers added, “Jolie, however, rejected Pitt’s compromise and moved to compel his communications with third parties — including his most trusted advisors — about such sensitive issues as the therapy he voluntarily undertook after the flight incident in an effort to better himself, ‘drug and alcohol testing’ he has allegedly undergone, his alleged ‘overuse or abuse of alcohol,’ and other actions taken in the aftermath of the flight.”

Pitt’s lawyers argued that his “private, third-party communications” from that time shouldn’t be relevant to this winery sale dispute: “Jolie, however, wants them anyway as part of her efforts to turn this business dispute into a re-litigation of the former couple’s divorce case.”

A rep for Jolie did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

As part of the winery battle, a judge ruled in May that Jolie must produce eight years’ worth of non-disclosure agreements she has made. Pitt’s lawyers have said he offered to buy her shares of the winery when she wanted out, but she refused the deal due to an NDA.

By having her disclose her history of using NDA’s, his side hopes to illustrate that it’s a normal business practice. Her team, however, has claimed Pitt’s NDA offer to her was wide-ranging and would have contractually bound her to “silence” about his alleged abuse, which she refused to do.

Jolie’s attorney Paul Murphy said in May that they are “more than happy to turn [the past NDA’s] over.”

Common NDAs are simply not comparable to Mr. Pitt’s last-second demand to try and cover up his personal misconduct,” said Murphy, who added that the ruling “opens the door to discovery on all issues related to Pitt’s abuse” and “we welcome that transparency in all parties’ discovery responses.”

“Angelina looks forward to the eventual end of this litigation with its false narratives that continue to hurt the family and interfere with their ability to heal,” concludes Murphy.

Pitt and Jolie were declared legally single by a judge back in 2019. They share six kids: Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

A source recently told PEOPLE that nearly eight years after their breakup, Pitt and Jolie’s divorce settlement is still being hashed out. “Both sides are still talking,” the source close to the couple said of remaining issues in the negotiations, “but it’s not done yet.”
