He is no longer bound in any way to his marriage with Angelina. She has really put him through the ringer and he is just glad this portion is done.' rad - who makes $20 to $30 million per movie, has several multi-million business ventures and sponsorship deals, a vast real estate portfolio, and other lucrative investments - has a net worth of $400 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. Angelina, 49, is still one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood, earning between $20 million and $35 million per film, Cosmopolitan reported. She also launched her own arts and fashion collective, Atelier Jolie, last year, but little is known about the company's finances. The former spouses signed a prenuptial agreement prior to their 2014 marriage that stated in the event of a divorce, they agreed to keep the individual assets that they each had prior to their marriage and split their joint capital. However, it appears that the divorce itself has proved to be quite lucrative for the Maria actress. Two years after their split, in 2018, Brad loaned Angelina $8 million to buy the Los Angeles mansion that she currently lives in. At the time he had paid over $1.3 million in bills for her and their six kids - Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16. A source has since told DailyMail.com: 'Jolie will be repaying the $8 million house loan by January 31.'
          In 2021, Angelina sold a Winston Churchill painting for $11.5 million at an auction for Christie's. The painting, titled Tower of the Koutoubia Mosque, was a gift to Angelina by Brad and is believed to be Churchill's only World War II-era landscape.The bulk of her post-divorce earnings came in 2021, when she sold 50 percent of the Château Miraval estate to Tenute del Mondo, the wine division the Stoli Group, for $64 million.'They purchased Miraval with the intent of keeping it 100 percent in the family,' a source close to Brad said. 'They were going to hand this down for their children so that one day they could run the business, and it would provide all of them a lucrative and stable future.' Angelina's attorney told DailyMail.com of the divorce: 'More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. 'She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family. 'This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.' Brad and Angelina did purchase a home together in the New Orleans French quarter in 2007 for $3.5 million, but according to velvetropers.com sold it after their divorce for $4.9 million. The couple also reportedly shared a superyacht, which they purchased for $323 million in 2014, the Mirror reported at the time. The name of the vessel was not released publicly and it is unclear if the pair ever sold it. The former couple, best known as 'Brangelina', share three biological children - Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne - as well as their adopted children Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara, 19. Since their parents' bitter split, Zahara, Shiloh and Vivienne has all dropped Pitt from their last name. It has been reported that Maddox and Pax do not talk to their father - while it is believed that Knox and Vivienne still speak with the Fight Club star, though they have not been pictured with him in several years. Their bitter custody battle over their six children ended with Angelina retaining primary physical custody of their brood. Brad was granted visitation rights. The actor had originally sought a 50/50 arrangement relating to their six kids, but an insider told DailyMail.com in March this year that he was no longer contesting the matter.
          Court documents filed in 2018 showed that Brad has paid Angelina at least $9 million in child support.The children have reportedly not had any contact with Brad's wider family either, 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,' an insider previously told DailyMail.com.The doting grandparents had been a very present fixture in the children's lives before Brad's marriage broke down, with the duo often pictured enjoying quality time with them. 'Prior to the separation, they were a part of the kids' lives and they all spent a lot of time together,' the source continued. 'It is just heartbreaking to see that this is no longer the case.' Brad and Angelina's fairytale marriage came to an end in 2016. 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. Jolie claimed in court filings that Pitt's 'history of physical abuse' started 'well before' the plane incident. The Maleficent actress also said her ex tried to force her to sign a $8.5 million NDA to cover up his 'years of abuse'. Pitt has always denied the claims of abuse and was cleared by law enforcement following an investigation. According to a source, 'Brad has come clean about what happened on the plane and he has worked hard on himself, getting sober and becoming a better man.' Brad has since got into a serious relationship with Ines de Ramon who he has been romantically linked to since 2022.
