Already one of the most famous celebrity broods in history, the children of Brad Pitt and
Angelina Jolie faced even more tabloid scrutiny after their A-List parents' divorce.
But it's not all bad.
The Jolie-Pitt kids seem to be doing quite well — and growing up so fast we can hardly
believe it!
We'll likely never know exactly what went down during that heated family fight on the
Pitt-Jolie family jet in 2016, but even alleged insiders from Pitt's camp admitted that he
was in the wrong.
His fight with his son Maddox was apparently enough for the teen to fall out with his dad
big time, and by all accounts they've been drifting apart ever since.
The custody battle caused tension among the children, according to Us Weekly, whose sources
claimed that Brad has now, quote, "accepted that he'll likely never be able to repair
[his] relationship" with Maddox.
The same insider told the publication that Brad's relationship with Angelina was just
as strained because of the actress' tough stance on custody.
The source added,
"Angelina hasn't offered any concessions about her actions that have contributed to the situation."
Maddox's younger brother Pax is also said to be siding with his mom over the split,
becoming what sources have described as his mother's "closest confidant."
In June 2018, Angelina was chewed out by a judge for bad mouthing Brad to the kids, according
to The Daily Beast.
Six months later, a possible reason for Angelina's reluctance to let Brad keep the kids came
out, and it involved their Vietnamese son, Pax.
If court documents obtained by Us Weekly are indeed accurate, then you can't really blame
15-year-old Pax for being angry with his father.
Angelina is said to have told Pax that Brad never even wanted to adopt him, adding that
his dad was "angry" when she went ahead with the adoption process anyway.
"You turned my own kids against me."
Zahara celebrated a big birthday in January 2019 when she turned 14.
Hollywood Life's celebrity baby editor said,
According to Hollywood Life sources, Zahara didn't get the chance to celebrate with her
dad on her big day, because, according to family insiders, Brad's invite to their daughter's
party didn't exactly get lost in the mail.
A source revealed,
Shiloh is Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's eldest biological child.
She came into the world in 2006, and before long she looked like the spitting image of
her famous father.
Angelina Jolie admitted to Today in 2007,
In July 2018, a Star magazine source claimed that Shiloh was sick of, quote, "being moved
city to city and unable to see her dad," and was reportedly "begging" to live with Brad
full-time.
Shiloh isn't a little kid anymore — she turned 12 in May 2018 and is allegedly growing
increasingly frustrated with her mother's behavior.
The insider said of Angelina,
While Shiloh quite clearly takes after her dad, Vivienne is definitely more of a mini-Angelina.
She and her twin brother, Knox, turned 10 years old in July 2018, meaning the whole
Jolie-Pitt brood is now into double digits.
Vivienne has already entered the family business, appearing in her mom's 2014 film Maleficent.
"We realized that the only 4 year old that would not run away from me was my own daughter."
Like his sister, Knox has also entered the family business, voicing a character called
Ku Ku in 2016's Kung Fu Panda 3.
Since hitting age 10, he's starting to look less like a lost little boy and more like
a young man in the making.
In January 2019, Knox was looking grown up when he and his sister were spotted on a post-Christmas
shopping trip with their mom, according to Hollywood Life.
