Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Reach Divorce Settlement After 8 Years of Legal Battle

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally reached a divorce settlement, bringing an end to one of Hollywood’s longest and most contentious divorces, their lawyer announced on Monday.

Jolie’s attorney, James Simon, confirmed to The Associated Press that the couple had agreed to the terms. The news of the settlement was first reported by People magazine.

Simon stated, “More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Pitt. This agreement is just one step in a process that began eight years ago. Clearly, Angelina is exhausted but relieved that it is over.”

Jolie, 49, and Pitt, 61, were among Hollywood’s most prominent couples for 12 years. The Oscar-winning pair share six children together.

The divorce proceedings began in 2016 when Jolie filed a case, alleging that Pitt had mistreated her and their children during a flight from Europe. Pitt denied the allegations.

This resolution marks the end of a prolonged and highly publicized legal battle that captured global attention.
