Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie reach divorce settlement after 8-year court battle
Hollywood superstars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have finally reached a divorce settlement after battling it out more than eight years in the courts, People magazine reported on Tuesday. “Brangelina” first got together after starring in the 2005 film “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and have six children.
Famed actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie signed off on a divorce settlement Monday, according to People Magazine, marking a turning point in the eight-year legal saga.
Jolie's attorney James Simon confirmed the settlement to the publication, saying in a statement that Jolie was "focused on finding peace and healing for their family."
"This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago," Simon said. "Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over."
Once Hollywood's highest-profile couple, Jolie filed to dissolve their marriage in September 2016 and the pair has remained locked in a court battle since.
In 2018, the couple reached a custody arrangement of their six children, three of whom are adopted, though it appears to have since unraveled.
Pitt, 61, and Jolie, 49, have also been embroiled in a separate legal battle stemming from the sale of Jolie's share of Chateau Miraval, the southern French vineyard where the couple had their wedding.
