Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt finally settle divorce, vineyard feud continues
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been appearing in court since 2016, dividing assets and fighting over their children, all while revealing the behind-the-scenes of what seemed to be a perfect marriage. According to American tabloids, they have finally managed to reach an agreement. However, there's a catch.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were once considered one of Hollywood's most harmonious couples. In 2016, two years after their wedding and nearly a decade into their relationship, a divorce petition was filed in Los Angeles court by Jolie, citing "irreconcilable differences." Since then, more details have progressively emerged, revealing that the relationship was not as perfect as it seemed. Documents from Jolie's lawsuit indicate that Pitt had allegedly abused their family.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt finally divorce
Over the years, the estranged spouses managed to agree on issues such as custody of their children, but several matters prevented them from officially ending the marriage. However, after eight years of intense court battles, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally reached a divorce settlement. The "Daily Mail" reports that the actors officially signed divorce papers on Monday, December 30. It should be noted, however, that the dispute over the Chateau Miraval vineyard in France is still ongoing. Both parties have reportedly stated that they are prepared to take the matter to a jury trial or mediation.
Angelina Jolie's representative comments on the divorce settlement
Angelina's attorney, James Simon, told the "Daily Mail" that his client is "relieved this one part is over" in light of recent revelations.
Frankly, Angelina is exhausted - he added, continuing:
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.
Insight on Angelina Jolie
A person close to the star reveals that Jolie has "been trying hard to be light after a dark time."
The source insists that the actress never cared for publicly airing dirty laundry.
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. They have wanted her to speak up for herself, to defend herself over these years but she reminds them to focus on changing laws over telling public stories.
"Page Six" reports that Brad's representative declined to comment on the matter.
