The drama between Hollywood power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt continues to unfold, with their daughter Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt making a bold move to drop her father’s last name from her own.
On her 18th birthday, Shiloh submitted a petition to a Los Angeles court to officially become Shiloh Jolie, distancing herself from the ongoing legal battles and controversies surrounding her parents’ divorce.
Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt back in 2016, but the details of their separation have yet to be finalized, leading to a bitter custody battle and disputes over shared assets, including the famous Chateau Miraval winery in France.
Shiloh is not the first of her siblings to distance themselves from the Pitt name, as her sister Vivienne recently dropped it from her Playbill listing for a Broadway production, and eldest sister Zahara has been using the Jolie name in her college sorority activities.
However, Shiloh’s formal petition for a name change marks a significant step in the ongoing legal saga between her parents, who have both filed lawsuits against each other over property and business ventures.
As the Jolie-Pitt family drama continues to unfold in the public eye, Shiloh’s decision to shed her father’s name serves as a symbolic gesture of independence and a desire to move forward on her own terms.
