After a lengthy and contentious divorce process, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally finalized their divorce settlement. The agreement includes the division of assets and joint custody of their two remaining minor children, Knox and Vivienne.
Jolie’s lawyer James Simon said the divorce settlement has been finalised, signed and filed with the court.“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.
” When she filed for divorce in 2016, Jolie cited irreconcilable differences and sought full physical custody of their six children, then aged eight to 15, with visitation rights for Pitt, 61. Court papers alleged that “Pitt choked one of the children and struck another in the face” and “grabbed Jolie by the head and shook her,” alleging that at one point “he poured beer on Jolie; at another, he poured beer and red wine on the children”. Pitt was not charged following an investigation by the FBI and Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, and he has denied the allegations.The couple had been embroiled in a bitter custody dispute, in which both sides accused each other of trying to manipulate media coverage in their favour. In 2019, a judge declared that they were divorced and single, but the splitting of assets and child custody needed to be settled separately. They agreed a joint arrangement in 2021 through a private judge, granting equal custody of their children. Jolie had tried to have the judge removed from the case over an unreported conflict of interest – which was agreed by an appeals court and dragged out the custody agreement. During the long divorce fight, four of the couple’s six children became adults and no longer needed custody agreements. Only their 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne remain minors. In June, one of their daughters, then known as Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, successfully petitioned to remove Pitt’s name from hers
