According to People magazine, Jolie's lawyers confirmed on Monday, December 30, 2024, that both parties have agreed to terms, marking a significant chapter in the protracted legal saga that began when Jolie filed for divorce in September 2016.
Jolie and Pitt had been married for two years and were together for 12 years before their relationship came to an end.
Jolie filed for divorce on September 19, 2016, citing "irreconcilable differences", shortly after an incident involving a private plane flight that she claimed escalated into an abusive altercation between Pitt and their six children.
Authorities investigated the matter, but Pitt was not charged, and Jolie later chose not to press charges.
In a statement to People magazine, Jolie's attorney, James Simon, reflected on the journey, stating, "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. 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."
