Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston Settle Ring Lawsuit

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston settled a $50 million lawsuit with Damiani International, the jewelry designer that made their wedding bands.
Pitt and Aniston filed a $50 million lawsuit against a jewelry designer that began selling imitations of their wedding bands, which were supposedly "one of a kind" in July. The golden couple claims they had an agreement with Damiani International that the company would never reproduce the wedding bands or the engagement ring (designed by Pitt). Damiani reportedly sold "Brad and Jennifer knockoffs" and sold them on the Internet and at Damiani dealerships using the couple’s images to sell the product.

That dispute has been settled and Pitt will now design a line of jewelry for the company and Aniston will model it in ads. Their wedding bands were based on an idea of Pitt’s. They were white gold and were engraved with "Jen 2000" (his) and "Brad 2000" (hers). The rings had 10 and 20 diamonds embedded in them respectively. Damiani International states, "Mr. Pitt will design an exclusive jewelry collection for Damiani, and Ms. Aniston will be featured in an international advertising campaign that will run in a number of countries throughout the world, with the exception of North America."

The statement was confirmed by Pitt’s publicist. In exchange for Pitt designing an exclusive line for the company and Aniston modeling for the ads, Damiani will stop selling copies of Pitt and Aniston’s wedding rings. It has been reported that Pitt and friends were collaborating on a clothing line, but Pitt’s camp has denied that rumor.
