Brad Pitt's Alleged Estrangement from Adopted Children: A Family Drama Unfolds

Exclusive: Brad Pitt's Family Feud - The A-list Actor's Children Turn on Him, Leaving Him Heartbroken and Helpless

It's been a wild ride for Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt, from his whirlwind romance with Jennifer Aniston to his highly publicized split with Angelina Jolie. But now, the 61-year-old actor is facing an even bigger challenge: his children are turning on him.

Pax, his adopted son with Jolie, was spotted stumbling out of the iconic Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles last month, looking like a zombie and propped up by friends. It's just the latest incident in a long line of drama that has left Pitt feeling helpless and heartbroken.

According to sources close to the actor, Pitt has washed his hands of Pax's antics and considers their relationship "unfixable." But it's not just Pax who is causing trouble - Maddox, another adopted son with Jolie, has also been at odds with his father. In fact, Maddox was reportedly involved in a physical confrontation with Pitt on a private jet in 2016 that led to the couple's divorce.

As for the other children, things aren't looking much better. Shiloh, the 19-year-old daughter Pitt and Jolie adopted together, has officially dropped her father's last name and now goes by Shiloh Nouvel Jolie. And with at least three of the other four kids informally dropping the famous surname as well, it seems like a clear sign that they're trying to distance themselves from their father.

But why are Pitt's children turning on him? According to insiders, it all boils down to how he has treated them over the years. "Brad continues to play the victim," says a source close to Jolie. "His fractured relationship with his children is a direct result of how he has treated them. He should stop blaming others and make amends if he wants to rebuild a relationship with the kids."

Meanwhile, Pitt's camp claims that he blames his ex-wife for their rebellious behavior. "Brad believes that whatever his kids are going through right now is a direct result of how they have been raised," says a source close to Pitt. But it seems like too little, too late - the damage has already been done.

As the drama continues to unfold, Pitt's family is left feeling helpless and heartbroken. His parents, Jane and William, are particularly devastated by their son's estrangement from his children. "The Pitt family was hoping that after Brad and Angelina's divorce was finalized, the kids would come around and re-establish a relationship," says a Pitt family insider. But it seems like those hopes are slowly fading away.

For now, Pitt will have to focus on promoting his new movie, F1, which hits theaters on June 27. Jolie, who celebrated her 50th birthday on June 4, is also keeping busy with her upcoming projects, including the highly anticipated Maleficent 3. But as the drama surrounding their children continues to simmer, it's hard not to wonder what the future holds for this Hollywood power couple.
