Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reach divorce settlement after contentious eight-year legal battle
NY Post
The contentious, years-long divorce battle between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt is finally over after the two celebs reached a settlement, Jolie’s lawyer revealed Monday night.
Jolie, 49, and Pitt, 61, struck an agreement eight years after the high-powered couple broke up – with the actress’ legal team saying on Monday Jolie is ready to move on.
“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 said in a 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 on the development.
A source close to the matter told The Post, “[Jolie] doesn’t speak ill of him publicly or privately. She’s been trying hard to be light after a dark time.”
