Hollywood has seen their fair share of messy splits. Earlier this week, reality star Erika Jayne won a $5 million fraud lawsuit after two former colleagues of her estranged husband, Tom Girardi, accused her of "aiding and abetting" her former husband.
Meanwhile, Olivia Wilde recently opened up for the first time about being served custody papers from her ex-fiancé, Jason Sudeikis, while onstage at CinemaCon in April. Plus in uncovered FBI documents earlier this month, Angelina Jolie said her ex-husband Brad Pitt was "becoming a monster" when he allegedly flew into a drunken rage during a 2016 fight on a plane that left their children scared. Fox News Digital spoke to lawyer Steve Baric, who has been involved with high-end divorce cases, and he explained that splits are a "highly emotional" time in a person’s life where "good people do terrible things." However, he noted that "when you add the celebrity status - it adds to the craziness." Angelina Jolie, Erika Jayne and Olivia Wilde are battling it out with their exes.
