Fans shared their opinions about the absence of “Pitt” from her name at this important moment. A commenter expressed sadness, mentioning, “It’s unfortunate because her life could have been different, and he helped improve her life.” Another fan wondered why Brad was being criticized, questioning, “Why are they being so tough on Brad?”
Another person advised being careful, saying, “I really hope this girl is making choices based on her own life because rejecting a parent is a significant matter and should not be influenced by what others have gone through or remember.”

Vivienne Changes Name Amid Parents’ Legal Feud — Report
Vivienne Jolie-Pitt is the daughter of Angelina and Brad. In 2008, Brad was extremely happy and emotional when he witnessed the birth of his twins, as stated by OB/GYN Dr. Michel Sussman.
Vivienne, who is now 15 years old, is embracing her artistic talents with the encouragement of her mother. People magazine reported that in the Playbill for the musical “The Outsiders,” she is credited as “Vivienne Jolie” without the inclusion of “Pitt.” This alteration in her name signifies an important development in Vivienne’s growing public persona.
In the musical, Vivienne Jolie assists in production while her mother, Angelina, is the producer. She frequently accompanies her mom on the promotional tour for the musical.
During a recent appearance on “Today,” she was seen observing Angelina from the audience. Angelina, when talking about her daughter’s involvement in the musical, mentioned that Vivienne’s excitement for the project stems from its emphasis on family.
The experienced actress expressed, “The reason it resonated with her, the reason she desired my presence beside her to witness it, the reason we all embraced when I stepped out here is because this is about family and community.”
Vivienne made a notable public appearance alongside her mother before their promotional tour. They were seen attending the preview of the musical in New York City, which was a rare outing for Vivienne. This event caught the attention of both fans and the media, as it was her first appearance since 2021.
The changing dynamics of the Jolie-Pitt family have been brought into focus by Vivienne’s name change and recent public appearances. This is particularly notable as Shiloh, their third child, has decided to follow in the footsteps of Zahara and Vivienne.
Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Turned 18 and Unveiled Her New Moniker
Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, who celebrated her 18th birthday on May 27, has officially requested to change her last name from Pitt to Jolie. She wants to go by the name “Shiloh Jolie” from now on, marking one of her initial decisions as an adult.
According to TMZ, Shiloh submitted the necessary documents on Memorial Day, which happened to be her birthday. Although the approval for the name change is still pending, it is anticipated that it will be granted soon and become official in due course.
Shiloh recently made a decision similar to her sisters, Vivienne and Zahara, by not using “Pitt” in her name. Reports suggest that Angelina may have played a role in influencing the strained relationship between the children and Brad, according to court documents.
Tony Webb, the owner of SRS Global, a security company that protected Angelina Jolie, recently made allegations against the actress. Webb, who worked for Jolie from 2000 to 2020, revealed details from his time with her.
Webb stated that Ross Foster, one of the two individuals, had made it clear that he would testify even if he received a court subpoena, despite the NDA. Additionally, Webb shared troubling information about what Foster’s testimony might entail.
He said that Mr. Foster informed him that he would be willing to testify about statements he heard Ms. Jolie make to the children, urging them to stay away from Mr. Pitt during custody visits.
The news caused a strong response on social media, with some people upset at Angelina and others worried about how it might affect the children of Jolie-Pitt.
One individual expressed surprise at the mother’s inability to recognize the negative impact on their children. Another commenter suggested that Shiloh’s decision to live with her father may be due to realizing her mother’s vindictive behavior and attempts to alienate them from Brad.
Angelina’s supposed action was described by one person as the most terrible thing someone can do, which is to separate their children from a parent. In contrast, another person expressed their disapproval by saying “Shame on her.”
Some people pondered on the repetitive pattern of Angelina’s actions, connecting it to her troubled upbringing. One person even suggested, “Based on what I’ve read, her childhood was quite similar. Perhaps she is unable to escape this never-ending cycle or simply chooses not to.”
Angelina Jolie is not only a mother to Vivienne, Shiloh, and Zahara, but also to Knox, Pax, and Maddox. She co-parents them with Brad and despite public criticism, she always aims to be a caring and attentive mother. This dedication is influenced by the values instilled in her by her own mother, Marcheline Bertrand.
In 2011, Angelina openly discussed her parenting style, revealing that she draws inspiration from her close bond with her mother. She stressed the significance of not only being a parent but also a friend to her kids.
She emphasized the priceless bond she formed with her mother through honest conversations and shared experiences. This strong relationship has helped her in building a similar connection with her own children, making sure that despite their different upbringings, they are a close-knit family.
Angelina is inspired by her mother’s kind nature and selfless acts of giving. She has a clear goal in mind – to become a loving and caring mother to her own children, just like her own mother was to her.
