Pitt Fears 'Final Blow' as Twins Turn 18

Brad Pitt is reportedly facing a heartbreaking milestone as his twins, Vivienne and Knox, are set to turn 18 next month. Insiders suggest the Oscar winner fears this event will signify the 'final exclamation point' in his fractured relationship with his children, believing Angelina Jolie has orchestrated a deliberate campaign of parental alienation.

Pitt and Jolie share six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and the twins. Reports indicate Pitt has had little to no contact with them in recent years, missing key events like graduations. There is speculation that Knox and Vivienne, like some of their older siblings, may formally drop the 'Pitt' surname after turning 18.

The rift between Pitt and Jolie began in 2016 after an alleged altercation on a private plane. While investigations cleared Pitt, sources close to him claim he took accountability, apologized, and sought sobriety. However, a source familiar with Jolie's perspective disputes claims of deliberate alienation, suggesting the distance is a result of harm caused by Pitt's past actions and a lack of honesty.

Following their 2016 divorce filing, Pitt and Jolie engaged in a lengthy custody battle. An initial shared custody ruling was later overturned. Jolie has maintained primary physical custody, and Pitt reportedly ceased pursuing expanded custody rights in 2024.
