In a shocking revelation, Pax Jolie-Pitt, the 19-year-old adopted son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, publicly criticized his father in a scathing Instagram post on Father’s Day 2020.
NEWS reveal the explosive details of Pax’s rant, where he labeled Pitt a “world class a**hole” and accused him of causing fear among his younger siblings.
According to sources close to Brad Pitt, the actor found it “depressing to see this dragged up,” dismissing the claims made by his son. However, Pax’s post painted a different picture.
“You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell,” Pax wrote. He further added, “You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want, but the truth will come to light someday. So Happy Father’s Day, you f*g awful human being.”
Pax’s post was accompanied by a photo of Brad Pitt receiving an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in “Once Upon a Time…In Hollywood” in February 2020. The private Instagram story, which Pax shared with friends, marked an unusual departure from his typical reticence about his family life.
Angelina Jolie adopted Pax from an orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in 2007 when he was three years old. Brad Pitt formally adopted him the following year. Pax’s social media outburst highlighted a troubled relationship between him and Pitt, one that has reportedly been fraught with tension for years.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, once Hollywood’s golden couple, have been embroiled in an acrimonious legal battle since their 2016 split, despite finalizing their divorce in 2019. Their separation came amid reports of an altercation between Pitt and their eldest son, Maddox, aboard a private jet.
Pax’s Instagram rant further revealed the strained dynamics within the family, stating, “You time and time again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person. You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence. You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you’re incapable of doing so.”
Pitt has since made efforts to address his issues, quitting alcohol and cannabis and attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. However, the ongoing contentious $350 million legal battle over Chateau Miraval, their French vineyard, continues to strain relations. Jolie sold her half of the vineyard to a subsidiary of Stoli Group, citing discomfort with being involved in the sale of alcohol. Pitt accused her of staging “a hostile takeover of the business.”
Pax remains close to his mother and has been seen with her in New York, where she is working on her new Atelier Jolie line. He has graduated from high school but chose to skip the graduation ceremony to avoid paparazzi. Earlier this year, rumors circulated that Pax had become an artist working under the pseudonym “Embtto,” but this story was later revealed to be a hoax.
As the Jolie-Pitt family navigates these tumultuous times, the public revelation of Pax’s feelings towards his father adds another layer to the complex and ongoing narrative of one of Hollywood’s most high-profile families.
