Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's son Pax surfaced in Los Angeles Saturday, amid stunning claims he has retained ties to his father's family. Pax's elder brother Maddox, 24, recently became the latest of 'Brangelina's' six children to file legal documents asking to drop the surname Pitt. The former Hollywood power couple biologically conceived their daughter Shiloh, 20, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 17, and also adopted Maddox, Pax and Zahara, 21.In 2020, Pax furiously denounced Pitt as a 'world class a**hole' who made his younger children 'tremble in fear,' and when the 'nepo baby' was in a dirt bike accident four years later, his father was reportedly unable to visit him in the hospital. However a source alleged this week that Pax, 22, still meets with his paternal extended family and has not filed to excise Pitt from his name, according to Page Six. In the wake of the report, Pax was spotted filling up his vintage Charger RT during a weekend outing in sweltering Los Angeles.Pax's sister Shiloh legally dropped her father's family name last year, while Zahara and Vivienne have also informally switched from Jolie-Pitt to merely Jolie. The Daily Mail confirmed Maddox submitted paperwork this May to have Pitt officially taken off his double-barreled surname for 'personal' reasons. Pax, on the other hand, has not done so, and a source maintained he 'still has a relationship with his dad’s side of the family and continues to spend time with them.' According to the insider, Pax 'recently joined his family as they went out to dinner and celebrated his cousin Sydney’s engagement to Archimede Jerome,' in a party that also included Brad Pitt's sister Julie and niece Reagan. However another source explained that Pax 'doesn’t have much of a relationship with Brad,' who is currently in the midst of a nearly four-year romance with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, the ex-wife of The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley. Near the end of last month, Maddox filed paperwork with the aim of formalizing the name change he had already put into practice months earlier. In his mother's new French movie Couture, which was released this February and also starred Louis Garrel, he was credited merely as Maddox Jolie. Two years earlier, he had been referred to by the name Maddox Jolie-Pitt in the credits of Jolie's Oscar-nominated Maria Callas biopic Maria.'Brangie' plunged into a seething feud after their split, and over the course of their divorce battle she accused him of being abusive, which he firmly denied. Pitt is said to be estranged from his children, an impression buttressed by the growing number of them who have dropped his surname.
The former couple infamously fell in love during the making of their 2005 movie Mr & Mrs Smith while he was still married to his first wife Jennifer Aniston. Jolie, the daughter of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand, maintained that she did not have an affair with Pitt while he was with Aniston. 'To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive,' she said on Today. 'I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.' Fans around the world began siding with 'Team Jolie' or 'Team Aniston,' as a furor erupted over the love triangle with Pitt at its center. Pitt and Jolie married in 2014 but split two years later, triggering an explosive legal battle over money and custody that rages on to this day. Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt in September 2016, after a mysterious dispute on a private plane in the presence of Maddox, who was then 15. Early in the proceedings, the FBI looked into allegations that Pitt became 'physical' with Maddox on the jet, but the investigation was closed with no charges filed. Jolie allegedly filed a Freedom of Information Act request as 'Jane Doe' in 2021 related to the FBI documents about the fateful 2016 plane ride. She apparently dropped the action against the FBI on September 25, 2024, via legal documents obtained by In Touch magazine. However, in court papers she had filed that April in a property dispute, Jolie accused Pitt of having been abusive to her 'well before' the plane ride. Meanwhile Pax suffered a terrifying accident when he crashed his dirt bike into a car in Los Angeles while not wearing a helmet in July 2024. Sources informed the Daily Mail that Jolie was 'by his side in hospital,' while Pitt was 'distraught and worried over Pax's accident, but he is unable to reach him.'The accident came four years after Pax unleashed an explosive social media tirade calling his father a 'world class a**hole' and a 'terrible and despicable person' who had caused his four younger children to 'tremble in fear.' Jolie and Pitt are also still entangled in a legal conflict over the Chateau Miraval, the winery they once shared as a couple in the South of France.The feud over the property stems from the fact Jolie sold her half to Russian billionaire Yuri Shefler for $62 million in 2021, amid her divorce proceedings. Shefler presides over a vast international alcohol empire including Stolichnaya and once sold a superyacht to Saudi crown prince Mohammad bin Salman. Pitt sued Jolie over the Chateau Miraval sale, insisting she was contractually obligated to obtain his consent as co-owner before offloading her portion. Jolie has brought up her abuse allegations and custody battle over the course of her years-long battle of wills with Pitt over the winery. She has asked Pitt to 'end the fighting' and drop the Chateau Miraval lawsuit against her so that their family can have a chance to 'heal.'

Angelina Jolie's daughter Zahara is making legal moves to remove Pitt from her last name.TMZ obtained a petition Zahara filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, where she asked for her new legal name to be Zahara Marley Jolie.The 21-year-old has not been using dad Brad Pitt's last name for many years. Pitt was notably absent from her name when she joined a sorority at Spelman College three years ago.Another source told the site that Pitt thinks Jolie is keeping their children from seeing him.Jolie and Pitt were raising six children together before she filed for divorce in 2016/ Shiloh, Maddox, Pax and Vivenne have also stopped using Pitt's last name. It is not known if Pax has stopped using the name as well.In May Zahara did not use the name Pitt when graduating from Spelman College. Jolie was at the ceremony. After meeting on the set of the 2005 film Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Brad and Angelina were seen as Hollywood's 'It' couple during their long-term relationship. They tied the knot in August 2014 during a secret ceremony in the South of France, and welcomed three children together during their romance - Shiloh in 2006, and twins Vivienne and Knox in 2008.They also adopted two more, Zahara, and Pax, and Pitt legally adopted the son that Angelina had adopted before they got together, Maddox.But in 2016, it came to an explosive end after the pair got into an alleged physical altercation while on a private flight with their six kids.
Jolie later claimed that Pitt 'choked' one of the children during the horrifying dispute and 'struck' another in the face, leaving her and the kids feeling like 'hostages' and cowering in fear under a blanket for hours until they landed. She also alleged that he grabbed her by the head, slammed her against a wall, and violently shook her at one point during the flight - which resulted in her injuring her back and elbow.Brad's rep called Angelina's account 'completely untrue' to CNN at first, but then released an amended statement to the publication that read, 'Angelina's story continues to evolve each time she tells it.'Brad has accepted responsibility for what he did but will not for things he didn’t do. He has been on the receiving end of every type of personal attack and misrepresentation.'Thankfully, the various public authorities she has tried to use against him over the past six years have made their own independent decisions. Brad will continue to respond in court as he has consistently done.'Since they split, the two stars have been embroiled in one of the most publicized legal battles in Hollywood history over custody of their children, as well as the winery that they once owned together.In May 2021, after years of duking it out in court, Brad and Angelina were officially granted joint custody of their six kids, but one month later, the judge's decision was thrown out.

Angelina Jolie's son Knox delivered a graduation speech his classmates won't soon forget. The 17-year-old dropped a jubilant F-bomb as he discussed his upcoming martial arts showdown - where he predicted a knock-out fight. Video posted online shows Knox taking to the podium in his blue cap and gown, along with Tibetan prayer flags and a lei draped over his shoulders and around his neck.Proud mom Angelina, 51, sat in the crowd, recording the speech on her phone. 'Tonight, I'm gonna be fighting at Total Sonic Knockout 5 at 12:45 AM, so catch me,' Knox told classmates during Friday's ceremony. 'I'm gonna knock 'em the f**k out!' True to his word, Knox battled it out in the ring in a brutal martial arts fight that resembled a scene from his estranged father Brad Pitt's film Fight Club. A Muay Thai enthusiast, Knox has recently been spotted training and competing in tournaments, and on Friday he showed off his battle-ready physique, channeling Tyler Durden from the 1999 classic.As he squared off against his opponent in the packed club, Knox took a few hits but stayed composed, landing his own blows with precision in the sweaty, chaotic bout. For someone so young, he moved like a seasoned fighter, ducking, weaving, and delivering kicks and punches with the confidence of a veteran. The outing comes just days after Knox joined Jolie and his older siblings - Pax, 22, Maddox, 24, and Zahara, 21, celebrating her graduation at Spelman College - though there was no sign of Pitt himself. At the ceremony, Knox seemed to channel his father again, sporting dark hair with frosted blond tips reminiscent of Pitt's signature 90s style.
In an apparent dig at Pitt, Zahara's name was read at the ceremony as Zahara Marley Jolie, rather than as the hyphenated Jolie-Pitt.She appeared to publicly remove Pitt's last name for the first time in her Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority initiation ceremony in late 2023.Pitt and Jolie were together for about a decade before they married in 2014 but filed for divorce two years later in 2016.Jolie cited irreconcilable differences and later accused Pitt of abusing both her and their children, which he has denied. Their lengthy, contentious divorce battle was finalized in late 2024, and since then, many of their kids have dropped Pitt's surname amid their ongoing estrangement. Shiloh also now goes by Shiloh Nouvel Jolie as she filed paperwork to legally remove her estranged dad's surname from her own when she turned 18 in the summer of 2024. Then, in February, Maddox dropped Pitt from his professional credits as he appeared as Maddox Jolie in the production notes for the film Couture and screenings of the movie Maria. In May 2024, Vivienne was credited as Vivienne Jolie, not Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, on the playbill for The Outsiders, the Broadway musical. Pitt made a shocking remark about his family after his bitter divorce with Jolie officially came to an end, but his fractured relationship with their six children remains unresolved. Pitt, who believes his relationship with two of his children is 'unfixable,' opened up about how important family is to him, amid his ongoing and escalating estrangement from his kids. Speaking at the F1 premiere in Mexico City, he said: 'No matter the mistake, you just learn from [it] and move on,' he told ET. 'It'll lead to the next success.' The Oscar winner continued, 'When you get to my age, you realize how important it is to surround yourself with the people you love, the people that love you back.' 'Friends, family, and that's it,' he added. 'From there, we get to go make things. It's a pretty simple, I think, equation.'

As for his other children, the source said that Pitt 'holds out hope that the others will one day come around. Time heals wounds.' A source close to Jolie also hit back at her ex-husband at the time and said: 'Brad continues to play the victim. His fractured relationship with his children is a direct result of how he has treated them. 'He should stop blaming others. If he wants to rebuild a relationship with the kids, he should acknowledge his own actions and make amends.'

Maddox informally dropped the surname in February, when he was listed in the end credits of his mother's movie, Couture, as Maddox Jolie, rather than Maddox Jolie-Pitt. In a heartbreaking blow to the Oscar winner, who has been estranged from his children, Maddox has joined several of his siblings in distancing themselves from the Pitt name, following his sister Shiloh's legal name change last year. His other sisters, Zahara, 21, and Vivienne, 17, have also informally dropped the name. Pitt, 62, and Jolie were married from 2014 to 2019, but their relationship came to a tumultuous end years before their divorce was finalized. The Daily Mail reached out to Pitt's representatives for comment at the time.The sighting comes after Knox, Pax, and Maddox were seen at sister Zahara's graduation from Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia - but there was no sign of Pitt, whose last name Zahara ditched again at the ceremony.Knox, his twin Vivienne and Shiloh, 20, were welcomed during Jolie's relationship with Pitt, which ended in divorce in 2016. Zahara appeared to publicly remove Pitt's last name for the first time in her Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority initiation ceremony in late 2023. In their divorce, Jolie cited irreconcilable differences and later accused Pitt of abusing both her and their children, which he has denied.
Their lengthy, contentious divorce battle was finalized in late 2024, and since then, many of their kids have dropped Pitt's surname amid their ongoing estrangement.
