Shiloh Jolie-Pitt applies to drop Pitt from her name

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, has initiated legal proceedings to alter her name. On her 18th birthday, May 27, she filed a petition in the Los Angeles County Superior Court to be known as Shiloh Jolie, as reported by the Los Angeles Times.

Shiloh, a voice actor in Kung Fu Panda 3, is the third oldest of the six children of the former couple. She is the first among her siblings to seek a legal name change, although some have stopped using their father’s surname publicly in recent years.

The other children include Maddox, Pax, Zahara, and the twins Knox and Vivienne. Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt in September 2016, but the divorce details are yet to be finalized.

The couple, who tied the knot in August 2014, have been involved in legal disputes over their shared business interests and properties, including a French winery. Jolie accused Pitt of emotional and physical abuse towards her and their children in court documents from October 2022.

She alleged that a series of violent incidents occurred during a flight in September 2016, which led her to file for divorce. Pitt vehemently denied these allegations, which were initially raised during a custody battle and later surfaced in a cross-complaint by Jolie as part of their ongoing legal feud.

These claims, contained in a redacted FBI report, were made at the time of the divorce. A representative for Pitt, unauthorized to speak publicly, strongly refuted Jolie’s allegations, labeling them as “another rehash that only harms the family”.

Pitt was granted 50-50 custody of the children after a private trial where the allegations were discussed. However, an appeals court later disqualified the private judge for not disclosing potential conflicts of interest following a motion from Jolie, thereby nullifying the decision.

The divorce case is still pending, with custody and financial matters yet to be resolved.
