Hollywood Power Couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Settle Divorce After Eight Years
In a stunning turn of events, Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally reached a divorce settlement after a lengthy eight-year battle, as confirmed by Jolie’s lawyer to the media.
When approached for comment, there was no immediate response from Pitt’s attorney, according to the Associated Press.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2014, share six children together.
Ms. Jolie filed for divorce in 2016, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
Following the divorce announcement, the pair found themselves entangled in a bitter child custody dispute that lasted for months.
It wasn’t until 2021 that a judge finally granted joint custody of the children to both parents.
Known affectionately as “Brangelina” by their adoring fans, the couple first met on the set of the 2005 film, Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
This marriage marked Pitt’s second, having previously been married to Friends star Jennifer Aniston, while it was Jolie’s third marriage after relationships with actors Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.
Jolie has graced the silver screen in iconic roles such as Lara Croft in Tomb Raider, Christine Collins in Changeling, and Lisa Rowe in Girl, Interrupted. Meanwhile, Pitt’s impressive filmography includes memorable performances in Fight Club, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and Twelve Monkeys. — BBC
