Let's call this one what it is: The most surprising star split of 2016 (and maybe this century). Shortly after news broke on Tuesday, Sept. 20 that Jolie filed for divorce a day earlier, Pitt released a statement to People, saying, "I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the wellbeing of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time."

They split later that year, and, in 2008, Ledger died in New York City.
