After an arduous eight-year legal battle, Hollywood icons Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finalized their divorce, officially signing the necessary paperwork on December 30, 2024.
The couple’s tumultuous journey began in September 2016 when Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences just two years after their marriage. Their relationship, which had captivated the public since they met on the set of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” in 2005, was further complicated by disputes over child custody and shared assets.
A significant point of contention has been their jointly owned French estate and vineyard, Château Miraval. The battle over this property continues, with Pitt contesting Jolie’s sale of her stake without his consent.
Throughout the proceedings, both parties have remained relatively private, focusing on their personal and professional lives. Jolie has dedicated herself to her family and various film projects, while Pitt has continued his acting career and maintained sobriety.
The finalization of their divorce marks the end of a prolonged and highly publicized chapter in both their lives, allowing them to move forward separately after years of legal disputes.
