During his acceptance speech at the Oscars, Pitt indirectly confirmed that he’s in good terms with Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox. The “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood” lead star recently reunited with his 18-year-old son, Maddox after years of not talking to each other.
“This is for my kids, who color everything I do. I adore you,” he said.
Following the ceremony, Pitt talked more about his children after he was asked what his reaction would be if they tell him that they want to become actors. The “Ad Astra” said that he doesn’t have any problem with it, but it has to happen when his kids are 18 years old.
“We can have that conversation once they are 18! I want them to follow their passions, whatever they’re most interested in. Then I think it’s about guiding as you can. But sure, why not,” he said.
Pitt reportedly skipped the BAFTAs last week after he learned that Maddox will be returning to Los Angeles for a few days. During the teenager’s break from school, he agreed to meet up with his dad.
Jolie’s ex-husband and eldest son have been estranged for years. In fact, an altercation between Pitt and Maddox on board a private plane was one of the reasons why Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt.
Meanwhile, Pitt and his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston, didn’t reunite at the Oscars this week. But sources revealed that the former couple crossed paths at the after-party.
A source told Page Six that Aniston took the time to congratulate Pitt on his best-supporting actor win, but they didn’t hang out very long. The two A-listers weren’t also photographed at the bash.
Last month, Pitt and Aniston made headlines following their much-awaited reunion at the SAG Awards. Patti Wood, a body language expert said that it was evident that Aniston trusts Pitt.
