Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are now ‘legally single’ as they head toward finalizing divorce

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are legally single again more than two years after she filed for divorce from the actor.

On Friday they filed a judgment in their divorce that restored their single status, according to The Blast.

Court documents were submitted that show a judge ruled on their bifurcation, which permits a divorce case to be finalized with certain aspects, such as property, to be dealt with after dissolution.

This comes after The Sun claimed this week that the Oscar-winning beauty, 43, wanted to slow down the divorce process in hopes of winning back Pitt’s heart.

They have yet to finalize their divorce. 

And it looks like it won’t be finalized anytime soon as Judge John Ouderkirk extended to their divorce case until December 31, 2019.

The two continue to use a court-approved therapist, Dr Stan Katz, to work on their partnership as they co-parent. 

They have six children together: Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 12, and 10-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

‘She would like them to be a family again and doesn’t seem capable of moving on,’ The Sun’s source claimed. ‘That’s why she is making it so difficult for Brad with every detail of their divorce.’ 

The newspaper goes on to report that Pitt isn’t interested in getting back together with his ex but does want to maintain an amicable relationship with Jolie for the sake of their kids.

The Sun’s source stated: ‘He just wants it all settled — in reality, this could have been over a year ago — but she won’t let go.’

In January, Jolie and Pitt, 55, were seen meeting together twice at attorneys offices in Beverly Hills as they work on the details of their divorce.  

Pitt was previously married to Friends star Jennifer Aniston from 2000 to 2005.

Jolie had two previous marriages – to Johnny Lee Miller from 1996 to 1999 and to Billy Bob Thornton from 2000 to 2003.

While Angelina has not been romantically linked to anyone since she split from Brad, sources have claimed that Pitt has been dating Charlize Theron.
