The Complex Divorce of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
The divorce between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has been one of the most talked-about in recent Hollywood history. Their split was marked by allegations of abuse, legal battles that lasted for years, and a growing distance between Pitt and their children. As the story continues to unfold, new reports suggest that Pitt is making efforts to reconnect with his kids.
One of the key developments involves 19-year-old Shiloh, who has reportedly moved in with her rumored girlfriend, Keoni Rose. According to reports, the two have been living together for several weeks. This move has sparked concern from Jolie, who is known for being protective of her children. A source close to Jolie mentioned that she feels anxious about her children leaving the nest, stating, “There is no way Angie is calm about this – she likes all her birds in one nest.” However, Jolie is also confident that her children are well-protected, thanks to the security team, which includes ex-Navy SEAL personnel.
Jolie shares five children with Pitt: Shiloh, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, and the 17-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. While the children have remained with Jolie since the separation, they are reportedly closer to her than to Pitt. Despite this, there are ongoing reports that Pitt is trying to change the dynamic and regain a stronger relationship with his kids.
To achieve this, Pitt is reportedly reaching out to family members, including his former father-in-law, Jon Voight. The two have maintained a good relationship over the years, although Jolie has had a difficult relationship with her own father. RadarOnline reported that Pitt is “grasping at straws” and is asking Voight to help mend the situation.
According to an insider, “Brad’s asking other family members and L.A. friends to help, too, but he’s starting with Jon and hoping he has the impact.” The source added that Pitt and Voight have been working together to figure out how to fix things, with Voight showing willingness to help. However, there are challenges ahead. Voight has been cut off from Jolie due to his political beliefs, and as he approaches his 80s, time is running out for him to reestablish connections with the family.
Despite these efforts, the source noted that “what use is that if none of the kids want to see him.” Some of the children, including sons Pax, Maddox, and daughter Zahara, reportedly “just hate his guts.” This highlights the deep emotional wounds that remain from the divorce.
While Voight may be willing to step in, the success of his efforts depends on the children’s willingness to reconcile with their father. The source explained, “At the end of the day, it’s up to the kids if they want to reconcile with their dad and reestablish that trust and warmth again.”
As the story continues to develop, it remains to be seen whether Pitt can bridge the gap and rebuild relationships with his children. For now, Jolie seems focused on protecting her family and ensuring their safety and well-being.
