Overview

  • In a GQ interview published May 28, Pitt described the December 30, 2024 divorce settlement with Angelina Jolie as “just something coming to fruition” and “not that major of a thing.”
  • The settlement formally ended proceedings that began when Jolie filed for divorce in September 2016, concluding an eight-year legal dispute.
  • Their high-profile battle involved custody arrangements for their six children and division of assets, including their French winery Château Miraval.
  • Pitt is currently promoting his new racing drama F1, which stars him and Damson Idris and is set to debut in theaters on June 27.
  • He has settled back into his Los Angeles home with girlfriend Ines de Ramon, and Jolie’s lawyer has said the actress feels relieved that this chapter is over.
