Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh has applied to change her name.
Reports suggest that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh has filed a legal request to remove “Pitt” from her surname following her parents’ controversial separation. According to TMZ, Shiloh, who turned 18 on Monday, May 27, has requested to change her legal name to Shiloh Jolie. Previously, Shiloh, 18, removed the “Pitt” surname from her Instagram profile.
Brad Pitt’s kids ‘want nothing to do with him’
The decision to remove Pitt from her surname comes shortly after the news that her sister Vivienne, 15, has also removed “Pitt” from her name.
Multiple sources have reported that Pitt and Jolie’s other children – Zahara, Maddox, Pax and Knox – also no longer use their surname. However, Shiloh was the first to make the legal change.
Since Pitt, 60, and Jolie, 48, split in 2016 after two years of marriage and twelve years together, reports of a strained relationship between Pitt and his children have been prevalent. In August 2022, a source close to Pitt said that the 60-year-old actor hoped to find a better place with his children soon amid the ongoing custody battle between the former spouses.
“It’s been a sad situation for years,” they explained. Jolie left Pitt due to ‘his physical abuse of the children.’ Jolie reportedly initiated the couple’s divorce after an incident on a private flight from France to Los Angeles in September 2016. The New York Times claimed Pitt “choked one child and hit another in the face” and “grabbed and shook Jolie’s head.”
The documents also state that at one point, Pitt “poured beer on Jolie; at another time, he poured beer and red wine on the children.” However, Pitt denied all allegations then and was not charged following an investigation into misbehaviour claims related to the 2016 flight. Also read –
