Angelina Jolie is facing a tough emotional battle, and it’s not just about her long-standing legal fight with ex-husband Brad Pitt. The Hollywood actress, now 49, is reportedly suffering from health anxiety – a condition where someone constantly worries about getting sick, even when they’re not.
Her friends say she’s deeply stressed and scared that this never-ending legal drama might lead to serious health problems, including cancer. Because of this fear, she’s trying to make peace with Brad and end the fight over their shared French winery, Château Miraval.
The Emotional Toll of Ongoing Legal Drama
Sources close to Angelina have shared that she feels overwhelmed by fear and anxiety. Even though she’s not physically sick, her constant worry has become a serious mental health issue. Professionals have advised her to seek help for health anxiety, a condition linked to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
This type of anxiety takes over a person’s mind, making them feel like they’re always ill or about to become ill. Considering Angelina’s past health scares, it’s not surprising she feels this way.
In 2013, she underwent a double mastectomy to reduce her high risk of breast and ovarian cancer. That life-changing decision shows how much she values her health and wants to be there for her children.
Why Angelina Wants to End the Fight with Brad Pitt
People close to Angelina say she’s tired of the stress that comes with the legal fight over Château Miraval. This winery, located in France, became the centre of their latest dispute after Angelina sold her share to a company without Brad’s agreement. He claims the sale broke a promise they made to each other, but Angelina’s lawyers say no such agreement existed.
Angelina is said to have reached out to Brad through a mediator, asking for a truce. She fears the stress from the feud could harm her health. A friend even shared that she sent Brad a message one night after a few drinks, which turned into a heartfelt plea to stop the fighting.
A Long and Painful History
Angelina and Brad were together for 12 years and have six children. They separated in 2016, and their divorce was only finalized in December 2024. Since then, custody battles and asset disputes have kept the former couple in court.
Their fight over the winery started in 2022 when Brad accused Angelina of trying to harm the business by selling her share to a company linked to a Russian investor during a sensitive time globally. Angelina’s side strongly denied this and said she had every right to sell.
Looking for Healing and a New Beginning
Angelina is reportedly taking spiritual advice seriously. She’s been told to remove negativity – or “poison” – from her life, including the legal drama. She wants to focus on her health and the well-being of her kids. According to insiders, she’s even considering leaving America and starting fresh in Colombia.
For Angelina, it’s no longer about winning a legal battle. It’s about moving on, protecting her peace, and being healthy – both mentally and physically.
