Eight years after filing to legally end their relationship, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have settled their divorce.
Jolie, 49, and Pitt, 61, signed off on their divorce on Monday, December 30, according to People.
“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,” Jolie’s lawyer James Simon told People in a Monday statement. “This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.”
A rep for Pitt declined to confirm or comment.
Pitt and Jolie were together for a decade before they exchanged vows in August 2014. Two years later, Jolie filed for divorce in September 2016 after two years of marriage and a decade as a couple, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. They share six kids: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne. Jolie’s rep said at the time that she filed for divorce “for the health of the family.” Pitt was later investigated by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services regarding an incident with their eldest son on a plane but was cleared by November 2016.
The exes have been declared legally single since November 2019, but have been battling it out in court over custody issues and their French winery, Château Miraval.
