Brad Pitt has brutally ‘cut off’ two of his adopted children.
It has been reported that the actor thinks his relationship with his adopted sons, Maddox and Pax is “unfixable” and he allegedly blames their mother, Angelina Jolie,
A source shared: “Brad believes that whatever his kids are going through right now is a direct result of how they have been raised.
“They are now old enough to make their own choices and if their choices include drama that is all on them.
“Brad would be there to give advice, but he cannot be when he is unable to have a relationship with them at this time.”
A source linked with Jolie hit back at these claims, however: “Brad continues to play the victim. His fractured relationship with his children is a direct result of how he has treated them.
“He should stop blaming others. If he wants to rebuild a relationship with the kids, he should acknowledge his own actions and make amends.”
21-year-old Pax has caused some concern after he was spotted leaving the Chateau Marmont Hotel looking intoxicated and being held up by his friends.
The group were then spotted at the Deja Vu strip club, where they stayed until 2.30am.
An insider in Pitt’s team has since shared that the 61-year-old has “zero concern”. They said: “He has zero concern with what Pax does or doesn’t do. (Pax’s) actions reflect who he is.”
The 21-year-old previously called his father a “world class a**hole” on Instagram for Father’s Day, 5 years ago.
His other son, 23-year-old Maddox, was allegedly involved in a physical altercation with Pitt in 2016 on board a private jet. This incident is what sparked the split between Jolie and Pitt.
When previously asked if his relationship with his father was a good one, he responded “Whatever happens, happens.”
The source also shared: “Pax and Maddox have made it abundantly clear how they feel, and Brad has nothing to say about either of them.”
In terms of his other estranged children; Zahara, 20 and his biological daughter Shiloh, 19 and 16-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, the actor “holds out hope that the others will one day come around. Time heals wounds,”, according to the source.
Pitt shared in an interview in 2009: “I am (a disciplinarian) with the boys. Girls do no wrong, so I don’t have to be.
“I feel like my job is to show them around, help them find what they want to do with their life, put as many things in front of them, and pull them back when they get out of line, so they know who they are.”
