Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally reached a divorce settlement, eight years after Jolie first filed for divorce back in 2016.
Pitt, 61, and Jolie, 49, first met almost 20 years ago, when they starred together in the 2005 film, Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
At the time, Pitt was married to Friends star Jennifer Aniston - though they ended up divorcing in 2005.

Pitt and Jolie then started dating before later marrying in 2014. They share six children together - Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
However, just two years after they made their vows, the Tomb Raider star filed for divorce and the 'Brangelina' love story came to an end.
It later emerged Jolie - who cited 'irreconcilable differences' in the filing - had accused Pitt of being abusive towards her and two of her children during a flight that year.

Pitt has denied the allegations and was not charged following a police probe.
However, ever since Jolie filed for divorce, the pair have been working towards a settlement for several years.
While in 2019, the couple were declared divorced and single by a judge, the issues of dividing up their assets and settling their child custody arrangements still had not been resolved.

Although Jolie's lawyers have said that an agreement has now been reached, it's not clear whether this means they have finally settled an ongoing legal battle over a French winery they purchased when they were together.
Earlier this year, Pitt's lawyers accused Jolie of selling her shares of the business to Russian businessman Yuri Shefler, without his knowledge.
Meanwhile, legal documents said that following alleged abuse (which Pitt denies), he was 'so concerned about his own misconduct that he blew up his own deal to purchase Jolie’s interest in Miraval because she refused to agree to his new, expansive NDA'.

Speaking about the settlement, Jolie's lawyer, James Simon told CBS News 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.
"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."
