Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Slapped With Lawsuit as They Figure out the Details of Their Divorce

Ouch! Estranged spouses Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been slapped with a lawsuit as they continue to figure out the details of their divorce. The former couple have been battling French interior designer Odile Soudant, who sued their Château Miraval company for failing to pay for lighting work she did on the their 17th century estate in France.

In April, a Paris court awarded the designer $664,000, including $70,000 for damaging her reputation. But Odile believes she hasn’t gotten credit for the project and is still fighting for that legal recognition. However, Brad’s reps argue the project was the actor’s brainchild. In one email he sent to Odile, Brad wrote, “Don’t waste time with legal action. Follow your artistic journey and don’t worry about the rest.”
