Brad Pitt's family torn apart by ongoing legal feud
The ongoing dispute between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt is negatively impacting their immediate family. The actor's parents are evidently missing their grandchildren and fear they may never see them again.
Observing media reports from recent years, Brad Pitt can appear to be an irresponsible father, subjecting his six children to an emotional rollercoaster. His image was tarnished by a notorious family quarrel on a private plane, which allegedly occurred in 2016. Angelina Jolie provided testimony suggesting that the actor supposedly attacked his then-wife and choked one of the children defending their mother.
The star's parental situation is not helped by the actions of his children, led by 18-year-old Shiloh changing her surname and the harsh accusations from adopted Pax, who publicly called out his father, accusing him of irreversible damage done to the whole family. Amid unresolved financial matters and an ongoing legal battle, the mother of the six children is gaining the most from this situation.
Brad Pitt's parents may never see their grandchildren again
The long-standing conflict between the ex-spouses is being watched with concern by Brad's worried parents. William, 83, and Jane, 84, last appeared with their grandchildren at the premiere of the film "Unbroken," directed by their former daughter-in-law, which took place in 2014. At that time, they praised Jolie, appreciating her dedication to family and her ability to balance motherhood with her film career.
Mr. and Mrs. Pitt only saw the entire 6-member group during increasingly rare family gatherings over the following two years. According to a report published on the Daily Mail's website by someone close to them, the complicated situation "breaks their hearts."
Brad Pitt's parents have not been able to see their beloved grandchildren for around eight years amid the ongoing divorce and legal battle between Brad and Angelina. Prior to the separation, they were a part of the kids’ lives and they all spent a lot of time together—a mysterious informant relayed.
Jane and William are aware of the inevitably passing time, which further plunges them into despair.
They are in their 80s and to think that they would never be able to spend time with the kids again is just unbelievable—the source added.
