Angelina Jolie’s divorce lawyer, James Simon, revealed that the actress is relieved to have finalized her divorce from Brad Pitt after over eight years of legal proceedings. Simon stated that Jolie is exhausted but focused on healing and finding peace for her family. She had filed for divorce in 2016, leaving their shared properties and concentrating on the well-being of their children.

While their divorce settlement is concluded, Jolie and Pitt remain in a legal battle over their French vineyard, Chateau Miraval. Pitt accuses Jolie of selling her share of the winery to the Stoli Group without his approval. Both parties have expressed a willingness to resolve the issue through mediation or a jury trial.

A close source shared that Jolie has been trying to remain positive after a difficult period. She has avoided speaking ill of Pitt, despite the pain their children have experienced. The source also emphasized that their six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox—have encouraged Jolie to stand up for herself, but she prefers to focus on changing laws rather than publicly defending herself.

Jolie initially filed for divorce in 2016 after allegations of physical abuse during a private plane incident. The couple, who married in 2014, were legally declared single in 2019. Jolie has since been romantically linked to Ines de Ramon.
