Angelina Jolie has officially dropped the abuse case against her ex-husband Brad Pitt, signaling a turning point in their long-running legal disputes. Sources close to the actress reveal that Jolie is feeling “happy and relaxed” after closing that chapter of her life.
“She seems really relaxed and happy,” an insider shared with Ok! Magazine. “It’s like she’s turned over a new leaf.” After years of public legal battles and emotional turmoil, Jolie is now focused on her career and children, finding peace in a fresh start.
Recently, Jolie made headlines when she attended the New York Film Festival with her children, radiating confidence and joy as they walked the red carpet together. The appearance marked a significant moment for the Maleficent star, who seems intent on channeling her energy into her family and professional pursuits.
The dropped case stems from a 2016 incident during a private flight with their children, which Jolie alleged turned violent. She claimed that Pitt, in a fit of anger, physically and verbally abused her and their children during the flight. However, Pitt has always denied the accusations.
The incident was investigated by authorities, but after two months of review, they opted to close the case without pressing any charges against Pitt. Despite this, the allegations continued to be a point of contention in their drawn-out legal battle over custody and other matters.
One of the major legal milestones in their split came in 2021 when the court ruled for joint 50/50 custody of their minor children, a decision that Jolie strongly opposed. She sought to retain primary custody, but the ruling marked a step toward co-parenting for the estranged couple.
Now, with the abuse case behind her, Jolie is embracing a new chapter in her life. Her career appears to be gaining renewed momentum, and she continues to be deeply involved in her children’s lives. Her focus has shifted from legal battles to spending quality time with her family and making strides in her professional projects.
This fresh start suggests Jolie is looking ahead with optimism, leaving behind the long-standing disputes with Pitt. Both stars seem to be moving forward, with Jolie carving out a space for happiness and fulfillment beyond the headlines that once dominated their personal lives.
