Angelina Jolie will walk away $80 million richer after dragging Brad Pitt ‘through the ringer’ in their eight-year divorce battle.
The A-list stars, who met while filming Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2004, finalized their divorce this week despite their bitter court battle over Chateau Miraval, the French chateau and vineyard they once jointly owned, which is still ongoing.
A source told DailyMail.com that Brad, 61, is “relieved that this weight has finally been lifted off his shoulders.” He is no longer linked in any way to his marriage to Angelina. “She’s really tested him and he’s just glad this part is over.”
Brad, who earns between $20 million and $30 million per movie, has several multimillion-dollar businesses and endorsement deals, an extensive real estate portfolio and other lucrative investments, has a net worth of $400 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Angelina, 49, remains one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, earning between $20 million and $35 million per film. Cosmopolitan reported.
She also launched her own art and fashion collective, Atelier Jolie, last year, but little is known about the company’s finances.
Angelina Jolie, 49, ended her eight-year divorce battle with Brad Pitt, 61, this week and is said to be “relieved” (seen at a screening of her new film Maria in London on the 14th). December)
The former spouses had a prenuptial agreement in place. However, the actress has grossed more than $80 million, which is directly related to her divorce (seen together in 2007 at the Venice Film Festival).
The former spouses signed a prenuptial agreement before their 2014 marriage that stated that, in the event of a divorce, they agreed to keep the individual assets they each had before their marriage and divide their joint assets.
However, it seems that the divorce itself has turned out to be quite lucrative for actress Maria.
Two years after their separation, in 2018, Brad loaned Angelina $8 million to buy the Los Angeles mansion where she currently lives.
At that point, she had paid more than $1.3 million in bills for herself and her six children: Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16.
In 2021, Angelina sold a painting by Winston Churchill for $11.5 million at a Christie’s auction. The painting, titled Koutoubia Mosque Tower, was a gift from Brad to Angelina and is believed to be the only World War II-era landscape painted by Churchill.
The bulk of his post-divorce earnings came in 2021, when he sold 50 percent of the Château Miraval estate to Tenute del Mondo, the wine division of the Stoli Group, for $64 million.
“They bought Miraval with the intention of keeping it 100 percent in the family,” said a source close to Brad.
‘They were going to pass this on to their children so that one day they could run the business and it would provide them all with a lucrative and stable future.
The former couple conceived three children: Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16, and also adopted Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara, 19 (Jolie was seen with all six children in 2018 in Paris).
While the former power couple finally settled their divorce, there is still an ongoing case over their battle over the Chateau Miraval vineyard in France (pictured)
Brad loaned Angelina $8 million to buy the Cecil B Demille estate in Loz Feliz, California (seen here) in 2017. The house was purchased for $25 million.
Angelina sold a Winston Churchill painting titled Koutoubia Mosque Tower (pictured), given to her by Brad, for $11.5 million at a Christie’s auction in London in 2021.
‘Angelina sold her shares and collected the children’s shares. Brad hasn’t done this, so his shares will still go to the children.’
DailyMail.com contacted Brad and Angelina’s representatives.
Angelina’s lawyer previously told DailyMail.com about the divorce that his client is “relieved that this part is over.”
Brad and Angelina bought a house together in New Orleans’ French Quarter in 2007 for $3.5 million, but according to Velvetropers.com they sold it after their divorce for $4.9 million.
The couple also reportedly shared a superyacht, which they bought for $323 million in 2014, the Mirror reported at the time. The name of the boat was not made public and it is unclear if the couple ever sold it.
Currently, PBrad has no communication with any of the children.
Their bitter custody battle over their six children ended when Angelina retained primary physical custody of her offspring. Brad was granted visitation rights.
The actor had originally sought a 50/50 deal in relation to his six children, but a source told DailyMail.com in March this year that he was no longer contesting the matter.
Court documents filed in 2018 showed Brad paid Angelina at least $9 million in child support.
The children have also reportedly not had any contact with Brad’s wider family, including his parents William, 84, and Jane Pitt, 83.
“Brad Pitt’s parents have not been able to see their beloved grandchildren for around eight years amid the ongoing divorce and legal battle between Brad and Angelina,” a source previously told DailyMail.com.
Brad, who charges $30 million per movie, has a net worth of $400 million according to Celebrity Net Worth (pictured on the set of the F1 movie in December).
Angelina, who is one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, earns between $20 million and $35 million per film. She appears in the 2015 film By The Sea, in which Brad co-starred.
The doting grandparents had been a very present part of the children’s lives before Brad’s marriage broke down, and the duo were often pictured enjoying quality time with them.
“Before the split, they were part of the kids’ lives and they all spent a lot of time together,” the source continued. “It’s heartbreaking to see that this is no longer the case.”
Brad and Angelina’s fairytale marriage came to an end in 2016. It was alleged that Brad, accompanied by their six children, was physically abused on a plane.
Angelina claimed in court documents that Brad’s “history of physical abuse” began “long before” the plane incident. The Maleficent actress also said her ex tried to force her to sign an $8.5 million non-disclosure agreement to cover up his “years of abuse.”
Brad has always denied the abuse allegations and was cleared by police following an investigation.
According to a source, “Brad has confessed to what happened on the plane and has worked hard to stay sober and become a better man.”
Angelina launched her own art and fashion collective, Atelier Jolie, last year, but little is known about the company’s finances (her New York City project is shown here).
Brad has since moved on with Ines De Ramon, 39, who he currently lives with. Angelina, on the other hand, is currently single and focused on her career (Pitt and Ramon were spotted in New York in September).
Brad has since entered into a serious relationship with Inés de Ramón, with whom he has been romantically linked since 2022.
Although they kept their relationship private, they have made several red carpet appearances together in recent months and Brad is said to be ‘in love’ with the 28-year-old beauty.
“Brad is very grateful to be able to put this all behind him as we start a new year,” the source tells DailyMail.com.
‘It’s true that he wants to take his relationship with Inés to the next level but they are in no rush to do so. “She is delighted for him and has been very supportive of him through all of this.”
Brad’s remarkable romantic life has always been a subject of fascination.
Brad ended his marriage to Aniston, 55, in 2005 after meeting Angelina on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Three months after Aniston and Brad split, he was spotted at Diani Beach in Kenya with Angelina and their son Maddox.
Aniston’s only meeting with Angelina occurred in 2004 at the Warner Bros. studios in Burbank, California, where she was filming her hit NBC comedy Friends.
“I stopped and introduced myself. It’s“Brad is very excited to work with you. I hope you have a great time!” Aniston recalled in a interview with Vanity Fair in 2005.
However, a source exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com that Aniston has no interest in talking about her ex-husband’s new divorce update, either publicly or privately.
‘Jen is not looking to speak publicly about Brad and Angelina’s divorce, nor is she looking to reach out to Brad and congratulate him.
‘The next time they see each other, they will be cordial, they have been in the recent past and that will not change.
“Angelina is not a topic of conversation between them and that will remain the same forever,” the source revealed.
