Brad Pitt refused joint custody: How did it affect the relationship with the children?
American actor Brad Pitt, known for his roles in cult films, decided to give up the fight for joint custody of the children he has with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie. This decision came as a surprise to many and caused a lot of discussion in the media.
Brad Pitt: Denial of joint custody
After the official divorce in 2019, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie continued to fight for custody of their six children. However, Pitt recently decided to give up joint custody, settling for the right to see the children.
"He has virtually no contact with the grown children. His interaction with the younger children has been limited in recent months due to his filming schedule, " says the insider.
Impact on relationships with children
Children spend most of their time with their mother, Angelina Jolie. According to the agreement, Pitt has the right to visit the younger children, Knox and Vivienne, who are 15 years old. However, his busy shooting schedule makes it much more difficult.
Shiloh and conflicts with older children
One of the most interesting stories concerns Shiloh, who, upon reaching adulthood, hired a lawyer to get rid of her father's last name. She is not the only one: Zahara and Vivienne also prefer to bear only the surname Jolie.
"It turned out differently: Shiloh, having just come of age, hired a lawyer to get rid of her father's last name, " comments the insider.
Maddox and Pax: Confrontation with the father
An even more dramatic relationship developed with Maddox, who immediately sided with his mother during the conflict and even testified against his father in court. Pax also does not want to maintain contact with Pitt, even calling him unpleasant epithets.
Conclusions
The conflict between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie continues to have a serious impact on their relationship with their children. It remains to be hoped that time and the opportunity to communicate will help establish these important family ties.
