Angelina Jolie statement as 'exhausted' star reaches divorce settlement with Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie has settled her divorce from Brad Pitt, with court documents revealing the pair were legally declared single on Monday - eight years after she filed for divorce

However, the world was stunned when Angelina sought a divorce two years into their marriage, citing 'irreconcilable differences', following an incident after a flight from Europe, when she accused Brad of being abusive towards her and their children—allegations he has consistently denied and for which he was cleared by investigative authorities. A private judge hired by Brad reached a decision soon after that, which included equal custody of their children, but Angelina filed to have him removed from the case over an unreported conflict of interest, reports the Mirror. Paul Murphy, Angelina's attorney, 49, insisted these papers will uncover "communications concerning abuse, lies to authorities, and years of cover up" allegedly connected to Brad.
