Brad Pitt talks about his children in a rare move, describing Zahara and Shiloh as “smart and beautiful,” but the actor reportedly needs to fix the relationship with his son Maddox.
Brad Pitt made the unusual action of mentioning one of his children this week, calling his 16-year-old daughter Shiloh "beautiful" on Monday.
Later, when speaking with Vanity Fair, the 58-year-old Bullet Train actor made a remark about one of his other children, 17-year-old Zahara.
Brad Pitt Talks About His Daughters
This follows Jolie's announcement that Zahara has accepted a position at the historically black liberal arts institution for women and would be traveling to Atlanta, Georgia, in the coming months. Angelina Jolie published a photo of her daughter with some of her classmates, some of whom were wearing Spelman shirts.
Meanwhile, Maddox, the former couple's eldest son, enrolled at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, until his lessons were relocated online and he returned to the United States during the COVID-19 outbreak. Pax, their second son, graduated last summer but is not thought to have enrolled in college. Pitt also noted at the Los Angeles premiere of his new action film Bullet Train on Monday that Shiloh is beautiful.
He told ET's Nischelle Turner that Shiloh's outstanding dancing talents are so good that "it brings a tear to the eye, yeah." Shiloh has lately been seen on social media executing dance routines with her friends. Shiloh was spotted dancing to Doja Cat's song Vegas in a video broadcast on YouTube by Los Angeles-based choreographer Hamilton Evans in June.
When asked if he believes his children will become actors like him or Angelina Jolie, he responded he simply wants them to be happy.
Brad Pitt's Relationship With Son Maddox
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie divorced in 2016, with their son Maddox Jolie-Pitt playing an unexpectedly important part in their breakup and its aftermath. Pitt allegedly had a verbal argument with Maddox aboard the family's private plane, prompting the Federal Bureau of Investigations to probe him on abuse allegations.
Despite claims that Maddox and Pitt's relationship has now worsened, The Sun reported in February 2020 that Pitt skipped the 2020 BAFTA Awards to spend more time with his son. Maddox offered Brad the chance to talk, and he dropped everything, a source told the publication, adding that Pitt considers parenting to be the most important thing.
However, by July 2020, the couple appeared to be on the outs once more, with a Us Weekly insider describing their relationship as nonexistent. With Maddox testifying against his father in Pitt's ongoing custody battle against Jolie in March 2021, a source described Pitt's biggest regret as the fractured relationships he's had with all of his children, but Maddox is the toughest, adding that he hasn't given up hope on a full reconciliation.
Brad Pitt is allegedly missing his son Maddox Jolie-Pitt behind closed doors while on the 'Bullet Train' press tour. Pitt truly misses Maddox and has reached a wall in his continued efforts to mend their relationship. Brad and Maddox not only bonded on a loving father-son level but also intellectually during Pitt's marriage to Angelina Jolie, Nicki Swift via MSN reported.
