Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s long-running divorce dispute, consisting of custody battles and abuse allegations, has concluded more than eight years after the pair separated.

Simon, confirming news of the settlement to The Associated Press, said in a statement: “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.

Pitt and Jolie, who started dating in 2004, married in 2014 and split in 2016, share six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox.

September 2016: Jolie files for divorce. Shortly after the pair’s second wedding anniversary, Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt citing irreconcilable differences, following an alleged physical altercation onboard a private jet flying from France to Los Angeles, which led Jolie to request physical custody of their six children: sons Maddox and Pax Thien, daughters Zahara Marley and Shiloh Nouvel and twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline.
