BRAD PITT DRAGGED BY HIS SON

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s 19-year-old son, Pax Jolie-Pitt called his father a “terrible and despicable person” who has allegedly made his four youngest children “tremble in fear”, in an explosive rant posted to social media for Father’s Day in 2020.

“Happy Father’s Day to this world class a–hole!! You time and time again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person”, Pax allegedly wrote over a photo of Pitt accepting his Oscar, according to media outlet, the Daily Mail.

“You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence,” he reportedly continued, referring to siblings Zahara, 18, Shiloh, 17, and 15-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

Despite a report claiming that Brad Pitt feels the situation with his children is “depressing” and “frustrating,” a source close to the actor insists that nothing could be further from the truth. The source also claimed that Brad Pitt has no reaction to the recent headlines.

“This is just unfortunate that people would keep trying to bring kids into things”, the source also mentioned.

The source continued: “It’s been a long seven years and it’s unfortunate when people unnecessarily raise issues from so far in the past … and don’t take into consideration the impact it has on the whole family”.
