Brad Pitt always emphasizes his role as a father in front of the media, but the truth is that he and his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren do not get along very well.
Brad Pitt, a famous Hollywood star, is the father of six 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren including: Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie. Recently, there has been a lot of information showing that the relationship between him and his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren is not very good.
According to Daily Mail on November 21, Pax Thien used his personal Instagram account to write about Pitt in 2020: “Dad constantly shows that he is a bad person, does not care or sympathize with his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. They are all always shaking.” “I tremble and fear when I see you. You have made the lives of those closest to me hell. Tell the world what you want, but one day the truth will be revealed.”

Zahara recently changed her name to “Zahara Jolie” and dropped the “Pitt” during a sorority induction at Spelman College. The 18-year-old was adopted from Ethiopia in 2005 when Angelina Jolie was initially a single mother. Later, Jolie and Pitt became parents to their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren together when they fell in love. She has long been known as “Zahara Jolie-Pitt”.

Brad Pitt adopted Maddox and Zahara, Angelina Jolie’s two 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, in 2006 and changed their last names to Jolie Pitt. The couple welcomed their first biological 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 named Shiloh in November of the same year. In 2007, Angelina adopted Pax Thien, a three-year-old boy from Vietnam, and Brad then adopted him in February 2008. The couple welcomed twins Knox and Vivienne in May 2008.
In 2016, Brad Pitt was investigated for 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 abuse after an incident on a plane, which was believed to be one of the reasons why he and Angelina Jolie broke up. The FBI and the Los Angeles Department of Family and Children Services conducted an investigation, but it was ultimately determined that Brad Pitt did not physically harm his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. Joint custody was initially awarded to Brad Pitt in 2021, but it was later agreed that Angelina would retain full custody, while Brad kept “custody time” with the younger 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.

In October 2022, court documents revealed that Angelina Jolie described Brad’s actions that hurt the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, including abusing the actress on a plane. Jolie said Pitt then poured beer and wine on her and her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. Specifically, the female star filed a complaint accusing her ex-husband of “strangling one 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 and hitting another in the face”. She said: “The 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren were brave and quickly tried to protect each other. They begged Pitt to stop. All were scared and some cried loudly.” Since this incident, Brad has not appeared in photos with his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.
Brad Pitt always emphasizes his role as a father and shows his love for his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. However, he also admitted the difficulties in his relationship with Angelina Jolie and the challenges of maintaining family happiness before the couple broke up.
