They have left fans freaking out.
In the midst of a complicated family context, two of the children of the renowned actress Angelina Jolie and the actor Brad Pitt have made a decision that has surprised their followers by renouncing their father's last name.
Vivienne Jolie, 15, was the first to take this step. The teenager, who is collaborating with her mother, the American actress in the production of the new Broadway musical 'The Outsiders', has chosen to appear on the program only with her first name and the last name Jolie, leaving behind the 'Pitt' that has accompanied her until now.
But Vivienne was not the only one. Her sister, Zahara, has also decided to dispense with her paternal surname in her life journey. Specifically, the young woman recently appeared on the lists of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority at her university under the name Zahara Marley Jolie, a change that has not gone unnoticed by fans of the family.
These decisions are framed in a complicated family context, after reports have been leaked that point to a bad relationship between the children of the 48-year-old artist and Brad Pitt. Let us remember that the actress filed for divorce and sole custody of her children in 2016, and since then there have been no signs of reconciliation or positive words towards the actor from the family.
It is evident that Jolie and Pitt's children have chosen to distance themselves from their father's surname, possibly as a reflection of that complex family situation. A decision that, without a doubt, raises numerous questions among the followers of this famous Hollywood couple.
But beyond the details of the conflict, the truth is that these changes in the names of Vivienne and Zahara reveal the independence and empowerment that Angelina Jolie's children have acquired, who seem to have found in their mother's surname a way of affirm his own identity and distance himself from his father's shadow.
