After an eight-year-long legal battle, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have officially finalized their divorce. The couple, once Hollywood’s power pair, has been involved in a protracted and highly publicized split since Jolie filed for divorce back in 2016. The conclusion of the lengthy proceedings was confirmed by Jolie’s lawyer, who expressed relief on behalf of the actress.
Speaking to Daily Mail, Jolie’s attorney noted that the actress had been through an emotional rollercoaster over the years. “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,” the lawyer said.
Despite the divorce being officially finalized, a major dispute remains unresolved: the couple’s shared ownership of the Chateau Miraval vineyard in France. Pitt had accused Jolie of selling her stake in the property without his consent, and reports suggest that the couple is still considering legal options to settle the matter, including mediation or a jury trial.
Sources close to Jolie say that, despite the ongoing legal tension over the vineyard, she has refrained from speaking negatively about her ex-husband. “She doesn’t speak ill of him publicly or privately. The kids have grown up seeing that some people have so much power and privilege that their voices don’t matter. Their pain doesn’t count,” one insider shared.
The couple, who share six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox—have reportedly encouraged their mother to continue fighting for herself, even as they grow older. Jolie has also been vocal about advocating for changes in the law and criticized the trend of selling personal stories for public consumption.
Their split marked the end of a 10-year relationship, including two years of marriage, and has dominated media headlines throughout the years. While the divorce is now legally complete, it appears that both Jolie and Pitt are still navigating the complex aftermath of their high-profile separation.
