After more than eight years of legal battles and public scrutiny, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reached a settlement in their divorce. Jolie’s lawyers confirmed the news on December 30, 2024, marking the end of a protracted legal saga that began in 2016 when Jolie filed for divorce. The split followed allegations of a violent altercation between the two on a private plane, which involved their six children. While authorities investigated the incident, Pitt was never charged, and Jolie did not press any charges.
Jolie’s lawyer, James Simon, emphasized the emotional toll the lengthy legal process took on the actress, stating that while she’s exhausted, she’s relieved that this chapter is finally behind her. Despite this resolution, the couple’s legal wrangling over their French winery business continues, as the dispute over its ownership has remained unresolved since 2022, with both parties making fresh claims.
Sources close to Jolie mention that she is now focused on moving forward and healing her family, and she has refrained from speaking negatively about Pitt, either publicly or privately. This marks a significant step for Jolie as she seeks to find peace after a long and turbulent divorce process.
