Seven years post-separation, the dust has settled, but the shockwaves of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's divorce continue to reverberate through Hollywood. As reported by PEOPLE, the once golden couple of Tinseltown faced a dramatic unraveling that left fans and insiders alike in disbelief.
It seemed like just yesterday when Jolie, 41, filed for divorce from 52-year-old Pitt, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple, who shared six children – Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox – had their lives turned upside down. Jolie sought physical custody, with Pitt granted visitation, a decision that sparked a media frenzy.
As the story unfolded, rumors swirled around Pitt's relationship with co-star Marion Cotillard during the filming of "Allied." Despite the denial of these allegations, as PEOPLE stated, the seeds of doubt were sown. "The divorce is a complete shock," a source close to the couple told PEOPLE. "They just celebrated their wedding anniversary together."
The couple's journey began on the set of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," blossoming into a partnership that captivated the world. However, behind the scenes, struggles simmered. "It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time," Jolie Pitt once told PEOPLE about their family life. This facade of happiness couldn't last, with their separation marking the end of an era.
The split sent shockwaves through the industry, leaving fans questioning the stability of celebrity relationships. "Both Brad and Angelina care very much about their kids and there is sadness on both sides," a source shared with PEOPLE.
The couple's last public appearance together in July before the announcement seemed like a distant memory as they navigated the complexities of their high-profile divorce. The narrative of Pitt and Jolie, from their on-screen chemistry to their off-screen drama, remains a poignant reminder of the ephemeral nature of Hollywood romances.
