Brad’s attorney, John Berlinski, recently accused Angelina of using NDAs in an improper manner as the couple battle over ownership of the Chateau Miraval winery.

BRAD Pitt has looked lonely during a solo beach walk in Santa Barbara after claims that his ex-wife Angelina Jolie ruined his relationship with their children.

Last week, a court was told that Angelina, 48, attempted to turn her kids against the Babylon star by instructing them to shun their father during custody visits.

On Saturday, Brad, 60, was spotted walking alone on a Santa Barbara, California beach while immersed in a cell phone conversation.

The Bullet Train actor was accompanied by his two dogs as he trekked through the sand along the shoreline in a warm, puffer vest.

He showed off his muscled arms in a form-fitting, long-sleeved white T-shirt that he wore beneath the vest.

Brad paired the vest and tee combo with baggy, checkered pants.

He sported wayfarer sunglasses as he enjoyed the fresh beach air and basked in the afternoon sun.

Though the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star appeared lonely, that won’t be the case for long as his eldest daughter, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt – who turns 18 on May 27, is expected to move out of her mom’s $25 million Los Angeles mansion and into dad’s $8.3 million home in neighboring Los Feliz.

“Shiloh isn’t unhappy at Angelina’s, but she’s turning 18 soon and wants to shake things up,” an insider told In Touch Weekly.

“Plus, she adores Brad and has always been daddy’s little girl,” they added.

The teen won’t grow homesick, as Brad and Angelina live only a few blocks away from each other.

While Brad was said to be “ecstatic” at the news, Angelina seemingly did not share those feelings.

“Naturally, Angelina wasn’t happy, but she knows Shiloh is a woman now and can make her own decisions,”  the source continued.

The Hollywood stars have been battling for custody of their younger children for nearly eight years.

DRIVING A WEDGE

Last week a former bodyguard of the couple told the Los Angeles Superior Court in a declaration about claims that Angelina tried to drive a wedge between her ex-husband, and their six children.

It came as part of a legal case regarding Angelina’s disputed 2021 sale of her stake in the Chateau Miraval winery in France that the former power couple owned together.

Former British SAS special forces soldier Tony Webb explained in his declaration that he had worked for the family for more than 20 years beginning in 2000.

He said that the Girl, Interrupted actress fired him after two of his security personnel sided with Brad following the couple’s acrimonious split and agreed to testify against her in custody hearings.

The Falklands War veteran explained that he had set up SRS Global Security after retiring from military service and provided protection to the couple and their kids through the company.

Webb said he typically took orders from Jolie’s personal assistant, Michael Vieira.

Discussing Brad and Angelina’s marriage breakdown, he said he became aware that they were divorcing in 2016.

He said, “After their divorce, SRS Global and I continued to provide security for Ms. Jolie, Mr. Pitt, and their children.

“Shortly before two SRS Global contractors testified in a court case that I understood was related to Ms. Jolie and Mr. Pitt’s divorce and the custody of their children, Mr. Vieira called me on my cell phone.

“Mr. Vieira told me that he had heard that two contractors who provided personal security for Ms. Jolie through SRS Global might be testifying in the family court case.

“Mr. Vieira then asked me to stop the two individuals from testifying.
“I understood that Mr. Vieira was making this request on behalf of Ms. Jolie.”

Webb says that he explained to Vieira that he had “no power” to stop the pair from testifying because they were independent contractors rather than employees of his company.

He went on, “Mr. Vieira then told me that his call should serve as a reminder that those individuals had entered into non-disclosure agreements with Ms. Jolie and that I should remind them of that, and that if they testified in the family law case, Ms. Jolie would sue them.

“I communicated this message to the two individuals over the phone and they both told me that they planned to testify.

“One of those two individuals, Ross Foster, specified that he intended to testify regardless of the NDA if he received a court subpoena.

ORDERS TO AVOID

“When Mr. Foster told me this, he also told me that if asked, he would testify about statements he overheard that Ms. Jolie made to the children encouraging them to avoid spending time with Mr. Pitt during custody visits.”

Webb said Vieira later repeated the threat to sue the bodyguards during a follow-up call.

The former soldier’s claims may prove legally problematic for Angelina because NDAs typically should not be used to stop witnesses from coming forward in court proceedings.

Despite the alleged threats, Webb said he understood that both of his colleagues went on to testify under subpoena, leading to Jolie’s terminating of SRS in June 2021.

Webb wrote to Jolie on June 16, 2021, thanking her for employing him.

The bodyguard said, “I also wrote that I was sad that we had become distant over the past few years and that I knew that she blamed me for what my independent contractors had done but that because they were self-employed I could not control what they did or said as they were not employed directly by SRS Global.”

In their last exchange, Jolie responded “‘Take good care. As ever. Angie.’”

CHATEAU MIRAVAL

The bodyguard’s explosive claims are the latest chapter in the so-called War of the Rosé over ownership of the Chateau Miraval winery.

Brad has asked the Los Angeles Superior Court to reverse Angelina’s October 2021 sale of her stake in the vineyard in Provence, France, to Russian booze tycoon Yuri Shefler.

He claims it breached an agreement the pair had to offer the other first refusal on a sale if either of them wanted out.

Angelina claims she backed out of selling to Brad because he asked her to sign an “unconscionable” NDA as part of the deal to sell her shares to him.

Take good care. As ever. Angie.”

Ex-Bodyguard Tony Webb Said Angelina Jolie Last Wrote To Him.
But Brad’s lawyers say her claims are merely an attempt to “rationalize” her betrayal of the Oscar winner and that just six months later Jolie proposed that Pitt sign an NDA as part of their divorce talks.

They now want her to come clean about the NDAs she asked others to sign so the court can test her credibility.

Brad’s legal team argues that Webb’s evidence suggests that Jolie found NDAs much less “unconscionable” when she was demanding them from others.

Webb said in his declaration that he received instructions, which “included Mr. Vieira telling me to present people with non-disclosure agreements on behalf of Ms. Jolie and obtain their signatures.”

“For example, Mr. Vieira often asked to provide hotel staff with non-disclosure agreements and to get signatures from them,” Webb said.

Brad’s motion on NDA disclosure is expected to be decided at a hearing on May 16.

In a separate legal filing, Brad’s attorney, John Berlinski, accused Angelina of using NDAs in an “improper manner.”

He added, “Jolie’s use of NDAs to silence her security detail and attempt to prevent them from testifying truthfully in court about what actually happened behind closed doors bears a striking resemblance to Jolie’s allegations in this case that Pitt improperly used an NDA to ‘silence’ her.”

Berlinski went on to accuse Jolie of trying to gain a “tactical advantage” by “turning this business dispute into a sideshow about family court matters.”

A ruling on who will remain in control of Chateau Miraval is not expected this year.
