Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie shocked the world with their separation in 2016. What followed was a fierce legal battle that entangled their lives. Eight years later, the ink on their final divorce settlement is frustratingly far from dry. Sources close to the situation revealed that despite the progress and the children’s involvement, there are still some issues, and many wonder if the divorce is “not complete yet.”
Even after 8 years, Jolie and Pitt’s divorce case is still not resolved
The high-profile divorce of the former Brangelina couple seems far from over, despite a painful family rift. “Both parties are still negotiating,” a source close to the matter told People on May 10, insisting that the couple is slowly getting closer to their final divorce settlement, “but it’s not done yet.” The divorce originally filed by Jolie in 2016 is still in limbo. The couple has six children together, including Maddox, 22, Zahara, 19, Pax, 20, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15. However, four of them have already dropped Pitt from their last name, which signals they’re Team Jolie in this legal tussle.

Brangelina’s divorce just got ‘more messy’ than ever
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s separation is still not fully resolved, even though both were declared legally single in 2019. Eight years later, their divorce remains unresolved, which is fraught with complications. Their differences over custody possibly left some matters unresolved, and the incident on a private jet in 2012 in which Jolie accused Pitt of attacking her in front of the children still affects their situation. In addition, the debate about Chateau Miraval, the French vineyard they jointly own and where they got married, is getting worse with each passing lawsuit. A source recently revealed that Pitt, now 60, has little contact with his adult children, although he is allowed to visit the younger ones under a visitation agreement.
“He has almost no contact with his adult children. His contact with the younger children has been limited in recent months due to his busy filming schedule,” the source told People.
