Brad Pitt is reeling from a devastating blow – his children are abandoning his surname, and he believes his ex-wife Angelina Jolie is the driving force behind this decision.
Their 18-year-old daughter Shiloh has officially dropped “Pitt” from her name, and 15-year-old Vivienne has also opted to use only “Jolie” in her name. Moreover, 19-year-old Zahara and 22-year-old Maddox have reportedly followed suit.
Pitt’s relationship with his children has been strained, and his son Pax’s 2020 Instagram post accusing him of making life difficult for those closest to him has resurfaced. Sources close to the family reveal that Pitt is “devastated” by his children’s decision, feeling it symbolizes a deeper estrangement that has been building for years.
Pitt believes Jolie’s influence is the primary cause of his estrangement from their children. He thinks her negative comments about him have made it challenging for him to reconnect with them. With Jolie spending more time with the children, Pitt finds it difficult to change their perception of him.
The once-celebrated couple has been entangled in legal battles and media disputes since their 2019 divorce. Recent allegations include Jolie’s accusations of physical abuse, which Pitt has vehemently denied. They are also disputing the sale of a French winery they co-owned.
