Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have agreed to a divorce deal eight years after the lengthy legal battle began.
Jolie’s lawyer confirmed the settlement, but the legal team of Pitt are yet to comment, reports the Associated Press.
The couple married in 2014 after they first met on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith in 2005. After two years of marriage, Jolie, 49, filed for divorce on grounds of irreconcilable differences.
The former couple, who share six children, then entered a custody battle. In 2021, they were awarded joint custody.
It was the second marriage for Pitt, who was previously married to actor Jennifer Aniston. Meanwhile, Jolie was married twice before to actors Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.
On December 30, the divorce paperwork was signed and Jolie’s lawyer James Simon told Daily Mail that she is ‘relieved this one part is over.’

He continued: ‘Frankly, Angelina is exhausted. 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.’
Jolie and Pitt wed at their Chateau Miraval vineyard in France, and the battle over its ownership continues.
In attendence at their wedding was Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, and Shiloh, 17, and twins Vivienne, and Knox, both 16.
Metro has contacted Jolie and Pitt’s representatives.
