Angelina Jolie Heartbroken Over Brad Pitt’s Estrangement from Their Kids
Almost a decade after Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s tumultuous split in 2016, the aftermath of their divorce continues to haunt the Hollywood stars. The once tight-knit family of eight now faces fractures and estrangements that seem irreparable.
Jolie and Pitt, who share six children together – Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Vivienne and Knox, both 17, have been caught in a bitter custody battle since their divorce was finalized in 2019. Sources close to the family reveal that Pitt, 61, has come to terms with what he perceives as a permanent estrangement from his older sons, Maddox and Pax, who have cut off all contact with their father.
“He’s devastated, but he’s starting to realize that things with the older boys can’t be repaired,” an insider shared. “He feels like they’ve been influenced against him. It’s heartbreaking for him to see how they’ve seemingly erased him from their lives, considering how close they used to be.”
The situation may have reached a tipping point recently when Pax was spotted leaving a popular Hollywood venue in an inebriated state before heading to a strip club. The incident has only added to the pain and confusion surrounding the family’s dynamics.
Despite the ongoing turmoil, Jolie is said to be deeply affected by the rift between Pitt and their children. The actress, who has always been fiercely protective of her kids, is reportedly heartbroken over the strained relationships within the family.
The fallout from Jolie and Pitt’s split continues to reverberate, causing emotional turmoil and discord within their once picture-perfect family. As they navigate the complexities of co-parenting and rebuilding fractured relationships, the road ahead remains uncertain for the former Hollywood power couple and their children.
