Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s contentious divorce could be close to coming to an end … with each star taking one of the last key final steps on the path to a divorce settlement.
According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, both Pitt and Jolie are serving their final financial disclosures on the other party … which is noteworthy considering there hasn’t been much movement on their divorce case for at least a couple years now.
The final terms of any overall settlement of the divorce haven’t been filed yet … but Thursday’s filings indicate that one of the most legendary marriages and acrimonious divorces in recent Hollywood history is finally coming to an end.
Whenever dueling parties in a divorce submit financial docs … it means the end is near.
Remember … Brad and Angelina first met on the set of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” back in 2004 while BP was still married to Jennifer Aniston. The onscreen couple remained just friends through shooting though Brad separated from Jennifer about a year later.
Brad and Angelina quickly shacked up together after his separation was announced, and they built a big family over the next few years — with six children in their brood.
Brangelina got engaged in 2012 and married in 2014 … but Angelina filed for divorce just two years later in 2016, citing irreconcilable differences.
In the same year, Pitt was accused of physically abusing at least one of his children — even though he was cleared by authorities after an investigation … and he denied the claims too.
The divorce proceedings continued to stretch out well after that … and a judge eventually ruled Brad and Angelina were legally single back in 2019. Other elements of the divorce have been playing out behind the scenes since then … and now, in ’24, the finish line approaches.
Matters have gotten more complicated between Brand and Angie — remember, in 2021, Angelina sold her portion of a winery she owned with Pitt … a move that eventually led to Pitt suing her for allegedly not getting his signoff before selling to a Russian oligarch’s company. That lawsuit is still ongoing … and separate from their divorce case.

While other legal battles may still be lingering … it seems like the divorce is nearly a done deal — and now, it’s just a matter of time before it becomes official.
