Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had an “ironclad” pre-nuptial agreement in place, according to TMZ.

If a couple signs a pre-nup, it means they can each keep their individual assets from before they were married — they just have to follow their agree-upon terms for divvying up the assets they acquired since getting hitched.

When Jolie filed for divorce, Forbes estimated that since their marriage in 2014, they’d earned a combined $ 117.5 million pre-tax. At the time, the magazine noted that Pitt’s “career earnings, since Forbes‘ first estimate in 1999, soar above $ 379.5 million.”
