The decision of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's daughter, Vivienne, to drop her father's last name has sparked intrigue and speculation.
Amidst their ongoing legal battle, this move by the 15-year-old suggests a potential rift in their relationship, capturing the attention of both fans and the media.
Recently, Vivienne has reportedly dropped her father's last name, "Pitt," from her own, showing a disconnection from her father for a long time.
Vivienne, one of Jolie and Pitt's six children, recently participated in the production of the new musical, The Outsiders, alongside her mother.
In the Playbill, she was listed as Vivienne Jolie instead of Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, indicating a change in her surname. It remains unclear whether this alteration is legally binding or simply a personal preference.
Last November, their eldest daughter, Zahara, introduced herself as "Zahara Marley Jolie" in a video shared by Essence magazine.
Vivienne's decision to drop her father's last name highlights the dispute between her famous parents, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
The former couple has been engaged in a controversial dispute, including allegations of abuse and financial disagreements.
New court filings in April brought forth shocking accusations, with Jolie claiming abuse by Pitt, which he fiercely denies.
The situation has escalated as Jolie accuses Pitt of attempting to control and financially drain her.
However, it has been reported that Jolie has benefited financially from her relationship with Pitt, amassing nearly $100 million through loans, child, support, and gifts.
The recent court documents suggest that Jolie struggles to defend herself against Pitt's lawsuit, viewing it as another attempt to control and financially deplete her.
The allegations raised in the legal filings point to Pitt's demand for a non-disclosure agreement to conceal his history of physical and emotional abuse towards Jolie and their family.
Amidst his legal battles with his ex-wife, Brad Pitt was seen having a lovely time at the beach with his girlfriend, Ines De Ramon.
They looked calm and happy as they walked along the Santa Barbara shore, drinking coffee and enjoying each other's company.
On the other hand, Angelina Jolie has made a significant declaration regarding her acting career.
The renowned actress revealed her contemplation of retiring from acting and considering a move to Asia.
Jolie expressed her weariness with the Hollywood culture, describing it as an unhealthy and shallow environment.
She desires freedom, the opportunity to travel, and a life without restrictions, mentioning her deep connection to Cambodia, where she owns a house.
