Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s third child, Zahara, has officially dropped her father’s last name. A California judge recently approved the name change, and she now goes by “Zahara Marley Jolie” rather than “Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt.” Amid the latest development, a source close to Angelina Jolie revealed her reaction to her kids dropping ‘Pitt’ from their name.
Angelina Jolie reaction to her children’s decision to drop ‘Pitt’ from their name
Pitt and Angelina share six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox. Four of Pitt and Jolie’s six children have legally changed their last names to drop Pitt. Shiloh, Maddox and Zahara have received legal approval, while Vivienne awaits her court hearing. The reason for the name change has been listed as ‘personal’ as per court documents.
A source close to Jolie told PEOPLE the real story and said the actress only wants everyone to heal. The source also added that the kids are not speaking ill and that shows their decency. Elaborating on the same, the source added:
“If people knew the whole truth, they would have more sympathy for the children and respect them. The fact they aren’t speaking ill or sharing things publicly only shows their decency. Angie hasn’t been fighting and isn’t angry. She just wants everyone to heal.”
Brad Pitt is still hopeful about reconciling with his children
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt tied the knot in 2014 after dating for a decade, however, their relationship collapsed in 2016. According to reports, Angelina and Brad’s years of legal disputes have strained their kids’ relationship with their father. Jolie subsequently made allegations of verbal and physical abuse against Pitt, including an allegation involving one of their children, in which she claimed that Pitt had choked their child.
Maddox became Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s second child after Zahara to drop the Fight Club actor’s surname. According to reports by Us Weekly and PEOPLE, Brad Pitt was “deeply hurt,” “devastated,” and “upset” to learn that his children no longer want to be associated with his name. The reports of his kids officially dropping ‘Pitt’ from their names are a constant public reminder that his kids are distancing themselves from him.
A few years before the name-dropping row, Brad and Angelina’s adopted son, Pax Jolie-Pitt, publicly shared his grievances against his dad. In 2020, Pax took to Instagram to criticise the Ocean’s Eleven actor, alleging that he made his family’s life miserable. According to Pax, his father is an “awful human being” who made his close people’s lives a living hell.
According to the report, people close to Brad Pitt have said the actor is still hopeful about reconciling with his children. One associate alleged that Angelina Jolie had engaged in “a prolonged campaign of parental alienation”. A source confirmed that Pitt has had very little contact with his adult children. The source told PEOPLE:
“He has virtually no contact with the adult kids. His engagement with the younger kids is more limited in recent months because of his filming schedule.”
