Hello everyone! Let’s dive into some big news from Hollywood that’s got everyone talking. It’s about one of the most famous families in Tinseltown—none other than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s clan. Their daughter Shiloh has made a significant decision that’s got the media buzzing and fans curious.
Shiloh, who recently celebrated her 18th birthday in May, made a legal move that has officially changed her identity—she’s dropped the “Pitt” from her last name. Yep, from now on, she’s going by Shiloh Jolie. This decision has been approved by the court, and it’s making waves across the celebrity world.
Now, let’s break it down a bit. The process began right after her birthday when Shiloh filed the paperwork to change her name from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to simply Shiloh Jolie. This might seem like just a name change, but it’s a pretty big deal considering who her parents are.
The initial hearing was set for July, but it got pushed to August because of a hiccup with the background check. Her lawyer, Peter Levine, explained that everyone who requests a name change has to go through a background check, and due to a clerical error, Shiloh’s hearing had to be rescheduled.
Finally, on August 19th, the court granted Shiloh’s request, and she’s now officially Shiloh Jolie. While this might be a triumph for her personal identity, it seems her father, Brad Pitt, isn’t too thrilled about it. According to a source who spoke to *People* magazine, Brad is upset about Shiloh dropping his last name.
He’s always had a special bond with her, and this change is a tough pill to swallow for him. The source mentioned that reminders of his strained relationships with his kids are difficult for Brad, who has always cherished his role as a father.
What’s interesting is that Shiloh isn’t the only one making this shift. Her younger sister, Vivienne, who’s just 15, has also reportedly dropped “Pitt” from her name. Vivienne is already making her own mark as a producer assistant for the Broadway musical “The Outsiders,” and she uses “Jolie” in the Playbill.
For those who might need a quick recap, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were Hollywood’s “It” couple for years. They started dating in 2005, got married in 2014, and then their relationship famously fell apart in 2016. The divorce was messy, with a long custody battle that kept them in the headlines.
They share six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox. While Jolie adopted Maddox and Zahara before she and Pitt were together, he later adopted them as well.
So, there you have it, folks. Shiloh is stepping into adulthood on her own terms, making decisions that reflect her identity. As always, in Hollywood, the drama isn’t just on the screen—it’s very much a part of real life too! Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story.
