In September 2016, however, after 11 years and six children together and two years of marriage, Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt, citing irreconcilable differences.
Yesterday, more than eight highly acrimonious years later, that legal process finally concluded when the couple reached a divorce settlement, Jolie's lawyer said.
"More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr Pitt," her lawyer, James Simon, said in a statement first reported by People magazine. "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."
No court documents have been filed to date, and a judge will need to sign off on the agreement, the Associated Press said. Pitt has not immediately commented.
