Brad Pitt thinks that Angelina Jolie took their son Knox Jolie-Pitt on the red carpet for a sinister reason.
A source shared with Page Six, that Brad Pitt believes his ex-wife invited their son Knox to the 2024 Governors Awards “to push his buttons”.
The 16-year-old has not been seen on a red carpet for three years but stood proudly beside his mom, arm-in-arm, on Sunday at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
The insider said: “Brad finds it a bit coincidental that a judge signed off on the [Château] Miraval trial just days before Knox joined Angelina at the Governors Awards,”.
“So he really questions her motive for bringing Knox.”
Another source shared that he had made his own decision to join Jolie; “Angelina felt so proud having Knox by her side,”.
“He typically prefers to stay out of the spotlight and Angelina respects that decision, but he asked if he could join her, and of course she was thrilled that he wanted to be there.”
“She couldn’t be more proud of him, and they had a really memorable evening together.”
In a new court document, that was filed on November 8, judge Lia Martin of Los Angeles County Superior Court dismissed three demurrers that Jolie’s legal side had filed in regards to Pitt’s own statements in court that the Malificent actress violated a verbal and written agreement not to sell their stakes in their French winery, Château Miraval without both parties’ giving permission.
This ruling was a response to Jolie previous requests to dismiss three causes of action Pitt had made in a complaint filed in April. The complaints stated that their joint companies, Mongo Bongo and Nouvel “entered into a written agreement in 2013 to give each other a right of first refusal over any sale of their respective interests in Miraval” and that the written agreement “precluded Mondo Bongo and Nouvel from selling their interests without the other’s consent.”
The written agreement that they had come to, according to Pitt’s legal team, was in reference to any sale of Miraval existed in addition to a verbal agreement to gain the other’s permission before selling their stakes.
A source close to the 60-year-old told PEOPLE: “This is a clear victory for Brad which demonstrates the legitimacy of his claims and demonstrates yet again the other side’s talk is not backed up with substance,”
Pitt sued Jolie in 2022 for selling her own stake in the winery to a third part, Tenute del Mondo.
This particular legal battle has also overlapped with another conflict between the former couple in relation to the custody of their children, half of whom have since reached legal age since the conflict began: Maddox, 23, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
The pair started dating in the middle-2000s and got married in August 2014. Jolie filed for divorce in September
