Actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reached a divorce settlement, her lawyer told Reuters on Tuesday, bringing an end to one of Hollywood’s most contentious and closely followed celebrity splits.
演員安潔莉娜‧裘莉律師向路透表示,裘莉已和布萊德‧彼特達成離婚協議,為好萊塢這一對最具爭議,也最受關注的名人分手畫下句點。
Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt, her husband of two years and romantic partner since 2005, eight years ago.
裘莉8年前訴請與自2005年成為愛侶以及做為她丈夫2年的彼特離婚。
Oscar-winning Jolie cited irreconcilable differences in the divorce filing. She subsequently sought full physical custody of their six children, then aged 8 to 15 with visitation rights for Pitt.
奧斯卡獎得主裘莉在離婚文件中提出無法調解的歧異。她後續尋求在彼特具有探視權的條件下,對兩人當時8至15歲的6名子女的完全扶養權。
The filing triggered a bitter custody dispute, during which allegations of child abuse were made against Pitt and reviewed by the FBI, but no charges were brought.
這起官司引發了難堪的監護權紛爭,在此過程中,彼特被控虐待兒童並受聯邦調查局審視,但沒有提起任何訴訟。
