  • Vivienne Jolie has officially changed her surname, dropping 'Pitt' and becoming the fifth of the six children to remove the hyphenated name.
  • Siblings Maddox, Zahara, and Shiloh Jolie previously removed Brad's surname; Knox Jolie publicly used the shortened name during his high school graduation in June.
  • Angelina Jolie filed for divorce in 2016 following a private flight from France to Los Angeles where she alleged Brad Pitt's behavior frightened their children; the FBI cleared him of charges.
  • In 2023, Pax Jolie-Pitt called Brad a "world class asshole" on Instagram, alleging he showed "no consideration or empathy" toward his four youngest children.
  • A representative for Brad denied the allegations, stating he maintains "great respect" for his children, while Pax remains the only sibling still using the double-barreled surname.
