Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s Family Dynamics Shift as Daughter Changes Last Name
In a surprising turn of events, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s twin daughter, Vivienne, made a public statement by dropping “Pitt” from her last name in June 2024. The 17-year-old was credited as “Vivienne Jolie” in the playbill for the Broadway production of The Outsiders, a project she collaborated on with her mother.
While Vivienne’s decision to change her surname has garnered attention, her twin brother Knox and their adopted brother Pax have not disclosed any updates on their own last names. However, it is evident that both young men have chosen to maintain a distance from their father.
Knox, who bears a striking resemblance to Pitt, has formed a close bond with Angelina Jolie. He even accompanied the actress to the prestigious Oscars Governor’s Ball in November 2024, showcasing their strong relationship.
Furthermore, Jolie has been a pillar of support for Knox’s martial arts pursuits. She was seen enthusiastically cheering him on at the IKF Point Muay Thai Technical Competition in July 2025, where Knox emerged victorious in his second bout.
The evolving family dynamics between Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and their children continue to unfold, with each member navigating their individual paths while striving to maintain connections within the family unit.
