Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reached a divorce settlement, bringing an end to one of the most prolonged and high-profile separations in Hollywood history. Jolie’s lawyer, James Simon, confirmed the agreement on Monday, as first reported by People magazine.

“Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt over eight years ago,” Simon said in a statement. “Since then, she and the children have left behind their shared properties, focusing on healing and peace for their family. While this settlement is a relief, it is only one part of a long and exhausting process.”

The settlement still requires a judge’s approval to be finalized, and no court documents have been filed as of yet. Representatives for Pitt have not commented on the agreement.

A Tumultuous History

Jolie, 49, and Pitt, 61, were one of Hollywood’s most celebrated couples during their 12 years together. They share six children. Jolie filed for divorce in 2016 following allegations of abusive behavior by Pitt during a private jet flight.

In 2019, a judge declared them legally single, but the division of assets and child custody remained unresolved. Initially, a private judge awarded them equal custody, but Jolie later succeeded in having the judge removed due to a conflict of interest, forcing the couple to restart negotiations.

Details Remain Private

While the specifics of the settlement have not been disclosed, the couple’s use of a private judge has kept much of the legal proceedings confidential. However, details emerged from a separate legal dispute in which Pitt accused Jolie of violating an agreement regarding the sale of her share of a French winery they co-owned. It is unclear how the divorce settlement impacts that ongoing lawsuit.

The settlement marks a significant milestone in the long-running legal battle, though it remains to be seen if all outstanding issues between the two will be resolved.
