Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has finally reached a divorce settlement after battling it out in court for the last 8 years.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the Tomb Raider star signed off on their divorce after several years, filing the paperwork on Monday. Angelina gave up spousal and family support from Brad, most likely because she’s financially sufficient on her own.
Not included in the documents is any agreement concerning the divorced couple’s six kids together–only their twins, Knox and Vivienne are minors. Known as “Brangelina,” given the nickname by the press who were obsessed with the early aughts “It” couple, their pair’s relationship and subsequent breakup have been highly scrutinized over the years.
Their settlement follows them teasing earlier this year that their divorce battle was coming to an end after their respective legal teams exchanged final financial disclosures, TMZ reported.
This often happens shortly before the two individuals who are divorcing come to a final resolution. Their official split has been a long time coming, being that the brunette bombshell filed for divorce from Brad in September 2016. At the time, Angie cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their divorce. Though they were only married two years before breaking up, they were domestic partners for almost 10 years prior to jumping the broom.

The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star and Girl, Interrupted star first crossed paths when they were making the big screen film remake Mr and Mrs. Smith. However, at the time Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston, so the two didn’t become an official item until 2005. Amid his separation from Jennifer, Brad moved in with Angelina, and the new pair eventually welcomed their six kids Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne to their union.
Not too long after Angelina filed for divorce almost a decade ago, she alleged that Brad was physically abusing at least one of his kids, but he always denied those claims. Authorities later cleared him of the allegation during an investigation; however, the Angie “has continued to litigate in the years since,” TMZ noted.
