Zahara Jolie's Ring Drama: Family Tensions Spark Amid Disneyland Date

Brad Pitt's daughter Zahara ditched the diamond ring on her finger during a Disneyland date with her boyfriend amid engagement rumors

BRAD PITT'S DAUGHTER ZAHARA DITCHES DIAMOND RING, FUELS ENGAGEMENT RUMORS... AGAIN!

In a shocking turn of events, Brad Pitt's 20-year-old daughter Zahara has sparked engagement rumors once again - but this time, she's left her ring finger bare! The aspiring actress was spotted on a romantic date with her boyfriend Elijah Cooper at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, looking every bit the happy couple.

Zahara, who recently dropped her father's surname and now goes by Zahara Marley Jolie, has been estranged from Brad Pitt since their parents' messy divorce. But it seems she's moved on and is living her best life with her beau. The pair was seen wearing matching outfits - white T-shirts and light wash jeans - as they enjoyed a fun-filled day at the amusement park.

The daughter of the Fight Club star and his ex-wife Angelina Jolie fueled rumors earlier this month but left her ring finger bare this time while out with her beau. Zahara has been estranged from her father and dropped his surname from her name in recent years

Zahara's date with Elijah, an actor studying at Morehouse College in Atlanta, comes just over a week after she sparked engagement rumors by showing off a massive diamond ring on her finger. But it seems the ring is gone, and Zahara is ready to focus on her love life instead!

The news will no doubt send shockwaves through Hollywood, where Brad Pitt has been dealing with his own personal drama in recent months. The actor was recently spotted with his new girlfriend Ines de Ramon in New York City, leading some to speculate about the state of his relationships with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie and their six children.

But back to Zahara - it's clear she's moved on from her parents' messy divorce and is focusing on building a life of her own. The college student is currently studying at Spelman College in Atlanta, where she's reportedly thriving despite the drama surrounding her family.

Zahara, 20, was seen holding hands with her boyfriend Elijah Cooper as they enjoyed the weekend in Anaheim, California on Friday. The pair wore matching outfits for their date and were also seen sporting matching Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse ears

Zahara's decision to drop her father's surname has been seen as a bold move, signaling that she's ready to forge her own path and leave the past behind. And with her budding romance with Elijah Cooper, it seems she's well on her way to building a happy future for herself.

But what about Brad Pitt? How will he react to Zahara's decision to ditch the diamond ring and focus on her love life instead? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain - this drama-filled family is always good for a juicy story!

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

For their day at the amusement park, the couple coordinated in white T-shirts and light wash jeans. The pair appeared attached at the hip as they enjoyed a loved-up outing to kick off the weekend

In an exclusive interview with TheScholarlyNote.com, a source close to Brad Pitt revealed that he was "devastated" when he learned about Zahara's engagement rumors online. "He hadn't heard anything from her about it, and it was like a punch in the gut," the insider said.

But despite his feelings, Brad Pitt has been focusing on rebuilding his relationships with his children - or at least, trying to. In a recent interview, he opened up about the importance of family, saying: "No matter the mistake, you just learn from [it] and move on... When you get to my age, you realize how important it is to surround yourself with the people you love, the people that love you back."

However, insiders close to Angelina Jolie claim that Brad Pitt's efforts are too little, too late. "Brad continues to play the victim," said 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."
