Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's daughter Shiloh files for name change

This legal request comes amid developments in the divorce battle between Jolie and Pitt, who were married in August 2014.

Jolie filed for divorce after an incident in 2016, in which she says Pitt grabbed her by the head and attacked two of their children on an airplane.

Pitt also verbally abused and poured alcohol on his family during the flight from France to Los Angeles, she says.

He denies the allegations.

The pair were engaged in a custody battle that resulted in Pitt being awarded joint custody in 2021.

Both actors have also filed lawsuits against each other.

Disagreements between the two include disputes over property and shared business ventures, including Château Miraval.

In February 2022, Pitt sued Jolie and her company, Nouvel, for allegedly selling her share of the winery without his supposedly agreed-upon consent.

Legal documents claimed that Jolie "sought to inflict harm" on her former husband when she sold her stake in their co-owned vineyard to a Russian oligarch.

On 4 April 2024, Angelina Jolie’s legal team filed a motion requesting communication be released, saying it would "prove" Pitt would not allow her to sell her shares in Château Miraval to him unless she agreed to an “expansive” non-disclosure agreement.

Pitt is being countersued over claims that millions of dollars of Château Miraval funding were used for personal projects.
