According to sources, Brad Pitt is “devastated” that his children are abandoning his surname and believes their controversial decision was influenced by his ex-wife Angelina Jolie.
We reported earlier this month that Shiloh, the couple’s eighteen-year-old daughter, filed to have the last name “Pitt” removed, becoming Shiloh Jolie, on the day she was legally deemed an adult.
Shiloh is one of Jolie and Pitt’s six children, although it appears that the other children in the family do not get along with their father.
Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, 15, recently made headlines when her name appeared on the official Playbill for The Outsiders, a production she helped her mother produce, and she was listed as Vivienne Jolie rather than Vivienne Jolie-Pitt.

Furthermore, one of Angelina and Brad’s three adopted daughters, Zahara, 19, appears to go by the name Zahara Jolie now. According to TMZ, Maddox, the oldest sibling, does not use the last name “Pitt”.
Readers may recall that Son Pax sharply slammed Pitt in a controversial 2020 Instagram post that recently resurfaced, claiming, “You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell.”
According to Little Things, the breakdown of Brad Pitt’s relationship with his children has had a significant influence on him. According to one insider, “Brad was devastated by this choice.”
“To him, it was more than a change of name — it was a symbol of a deeper estrangement that has been brewing for years.”
Another source with close familial links, however, went into detail about how Shiloh managed her name change by hiring her own lawyer, underlining that it was entirely her decision.

However, Brad has strong concerns that Angelina is the primary cause of his children’s alienation, per the source that Little Things mentioned.
The insider asserted, “He feels that the negative narrative Angelina presents to the kids is a major obstacle in his efforts to reconnect.”
“With Angelina having daily influence over the children, Brad finds it nearly impossible to change their perceptions.”
The celebrities, who were previously collectively branded “Brangelina” by the media, have been embroiled in court disputes and media-fueled arguments since their 2019 divorce. Recently, a number of charges have been made against them.
The former couple is still at war over the sale of a French winery they bought together, and as recently as April of this year, Jolie filed papers in the Los Angeles Superior Court claiming Pitt of physical abuse, a claim he has strenuously rejected.
