Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are Hollywood’s most notorious power couple. At least they were until the news broke on September 19th, 2016 that Jolie has filed for divorce from her movie star husband citing the reason as irreconcilable differences. Sources close to the couple confirmed that the actress has grown frustrated with Pitt’s anger problems, substance abuse and even his methods of raising their 6 children.

Now that Angelina has filed for physical custody of the children, limiting Brad to visitation rights if the judge rules in her favor, the world is anxious to see how this media worthy divorce will unfold. Besides their kids, the famous couple also share ownership of at least 3 homes around the globe, including their Los Feliz compound in Los Angeles, the New Orleans home and last, but certainly not least, the $60 million winery Chateau Miraval in the South of France where the couple got married in 2014.
