Overview

  • Their divorce was officially finalized on December 30, 2024, ending an eight-year legal battle that began with Jolie’s 2016 filing after an alleged private-jet incident.
  • In his first public comments, Pitt described the settlement as “just something coming to fruition. Legally,” insisting it “wasn’t that major of a thing.”
  • The actor lamented that his personal life has been under constant media scrutiny for decades, calling the coverage both an “annoyance” and a “nagging time suck.”
  • Pitt is now focused on F1, set to release on June 27, 2025, and credits the film project with reigniting his passion for acting.
  • He has been in a relationship with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon since 2022, with close sources describing her as a stabilizing, supportive presence after the divorce.
