World-class romantic couple officially divorce, ending 8-year dispute

Reuters reported today, the last day of 2024, actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reached a divorce settlement, her lawyer told the international news agency today, Tuesday 31 December 2024, bringing an end to one of Hollywood’s most contentious and closely followed celebrity splits.

Jolie filed for a divorce from Pitt, her husband of two years and romantic partner since 2005, eight years ago. The relationship between two of Hollywood’s most well-known actors had provided steady fodder for the tabloid media for years.

“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,” Jolie’s lawyer James Simon said in a statement, adding that a divorce settlement has been finalised, signed and filed with the court.

No details of the settlement were immediately revealed. Pitt’s representatives did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment outside of regular business hours.

Oscar-winning Jolie cited irreconcilable differences in the divorce filing. She subsequently sought full physical custody of their six children, then aged eight to 15, with visitation rights for Pitt.

The filing triggered a bitter custody dispute, during which Pitt was investigated and cleared of child abuse. Both sides accused each other of trying to manipulate media coverage in their favour. The couple initially reached a custody decision through a private judge, granting equal custody of their children.

“She doesn’t speak ill of him publicly or privately. She’s been trying hard to be light after a dark time,” a source close to the actress was cited as saying in the lawyer’s statement.

The kids had wanted her to “speak up for herself, to defend herself over these years,” the source added.

Jolie, who won a best-supporting actress Oscar for “Girl, Interrupted” in 2000, was previously married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton.

Pitt was married to actress Jennifer Aniston in 2003 when he and Jolie filmed “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” the story of assassins unknowingly assigned to kill each other. There were reports of an affair, but Jolie told Vogue they were only “very, very good friends” until Pitt and Aniston split in 2005.
