Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reached a settlement in their divorce, ending a bitter eight-year legal battle.
The Hollywood couple completed the divorce paperwork on December 30. However, they are still in a dispute over a French chateau they once owned together.
Divorce Lawyer James Simon told DailyMail.com Jolie, 49, is ‘relieved this one part is over.’
‘Frankly, Angelina is exhausted,’ he said.
Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt more than eight years ago. Since then, she and their children moved out of the properties they shared with Pitt. Jolie has been focusing on bringing peace and healing to their family.
Although Pitt and Jolie have finalized their divorce, the legal battle over their shared ownership of the Chateau Miraval vineyard in France is ongoing.
The two have been locked in a bitter legal battle over Miraval after Pitt alleged Jolie sold her share of the winery to the Stoli Group without his approval.
Both sides have said they would be willing to take the Miraval case to a jury trial or mediation, a source told Daily Mail.

The couple share six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox
A source with knowledge of the situation added Jolie has ‘been trying hard to be light after a dark time.’
‘She doesn’t speak ill of him publicly or privately,’ the insider said.
‘The kids have grown up seeing that some people have so much power and privilege that their voices don’t matter. Their pain doesn’t count.
‘They have wanted her to speak up for herself, to defend herself over these years but she reminds them to focus on changing laws over telling public stories.’
A rep for Pitt declined to comment on Monday night.
Jolie filed to end the marriage in September of 2016, just two years after tying the knot. They had dated 10 years before they decided to get married.
It has since been alleged that the couple and their six children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox, had taken a private plane days prior to her filing in which Pitt had become physically abusive.
He was never charged.
One insider told DailyMail.com ‘she could have pressed charges against him.’

While the former power couple have finally settled their divorce, there is still the ongoing case regarding their battle over Chateau Miraval vineyard in France (pictured)
‘She could have told the world what happened, she didn’t. All she wanted was for their children to get the support they needed to heal.
‘Pitt successfully used his power and his privilege to cover up his conduct at his family’s expense and even attempted to paint her as the reason why his relationship is so challenging with the children.’
Despite the ongoing legal battle, Jolie and Pitt were deemed legally single in 2019.
Pitt, now 61, has been dating Los Angeles based jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, 34, for almost two years.
Pitt’s reps declined to comment on the divorce settlement.
