Angelina Jolie’s years-long legal battle with ex-husband Brad Pitt appears to be weighing heavily on her, with new reports suggesting that the ongoing stress is affecting both her physical and mental well-being. The former couple, once considered Hollywood royalty, officially finalized their divorce in December 2024 after eight years of contentious legal proceedings.
However, despite the dissolution of their marriage, they remain embroiled in a bitter dispute over the ownership of their French winery, Château Miraval. According to sources close to the Maleficent star, Jolie is now eager to bring the remaining legal conflicts to an end, fearing the emotional toll could manifest in serious health consequences.

The actress reportedly believes that the unrelenting negativity surrounding the ongoing legal wrangling could lead to a life-threatening illness. “She fears that it might get her some serious disease like cancer that could threaten her life,” said a source, noting that the emotional burden has become increasingly difficult for the actress to bear.
Jolie’s concerns are not without precedent. In 2013, the Oscar winner made global headlines when she underwent a preventive double mastectomy after testing positive for the BRCA1 gene mutation, which significantly increases the risk of breast and ovarian cancer. An insider revealed to Radar Online, “Ange is filled with fear that the negative energy will cause deadly diseases, including cancer.
She’s sent Brad messages through a mediator asking for a truce. She wants to move on with her life.” Jolie, who has long been active in humanitarian causes, is now said to be prioritizing her personal health and peace of mind over continuing the protracted legal fight. Those close to her report that she is making efforts to step away from the emotional turmoil and find closure.
“She wants to move on with her life,” the source emphasized. The dispute over Château Miraval has been a particularly bitter point of contention. The estate, once a romantic symbol of their marriage and the site of their 2014 wedding, has become a legal battleground, with both parties accusing each other of mismanagement and betrayal over the property’s ownership and business dealings.
With her divorce officially behind her but legal battles still looming, Jolie appears ready to take back control of her life, one step at a time. Her renewed focus on health, healing, and peace marks a decisive shift in what has been one of Hollywood’s most public and painful breakups.
