One of Hollywood's highest profile marriages has come to an end, after actress Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from husband Brad Pitt, CNN reported.

Jolie filed for divorce on Monday citing irreconcilable differences.

She is seeking physical custody of their six kids, suggesting that Pitt get visitation rights. Jolie did not seek spousal support, E! Online added.

Jolie and Pitt got together in 2004 after starring in "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and secretly got married in 2014 in a chapel at Château Miraval in the village of Correns, France.

Jolie adopted daughter Zahara from Ethiopia, and in early 2006 she announced that she and Pitt were expecting a baby. Shortly thereafter, Pitt was granted the right to legally adopt Maddox and Zahara.

Their daughter Shiloh was born in May 2006, and son Pax was adopted from Vietnam in March 2007. Jolie gave birth to twins Vivienne and Knox in July 2008.

The couple announced their engagement in 2012.
