Summary of article:

Following Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s divorce, their daughter Vivian was given permission to change her surname, legally removing her father’s surname from her four children, and the family rift once again came into focus.

Hollywood former gold partnerbrad pitt (Brad Pitt) and Angelinajolie (Angelina Jolie)’s divorce case has ended, but the rift between father and son seems difficult to repair. Since the couple’s youngest daughter, Vivienne, who has just turned 18, has been officially approved by the court to change her surname, Xiaobu’s four children have been legally completely “de-petitized”, making this family change that has been involved for many years once again become the center of attention.

Vivian’s intention to draw a clear line has indeed been a long-standing one. As early as May 2024, when she assisted her mother in the production of the Broadway musical “The Outsiders”, “Vivienne Jolie” was quietly used in the program list. She and her twin brother Knox celebrated their 18th birthdays on July 12 this year, and they immediately submitted their name change application eight days later. At that time, he quietly filled in only “personal reasons” in the document.

According to foreign media reports, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Virginia Keeney held the hearing on November 2. Vivian’s attorney Peter Kenneth Levin attended remotely, and without any objection, the judge signed the legal document on the spot, officially changing her legal name from “Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt” to “Vivienne Marcheline Jolie”.

In fact, Vivian is the latest person in the family to “change her surname.” Shiloh, 20, applied in early May 2024, the day he turned 18, and was approved in August of that year; Zahra, 21, and Maddox, 25, also completed the legal name change process in September this year. As for twin brother Knox, “Pitt” has also been removed from his high school diploma, but it has not yet been confirmed whether the name has been officially changed through law.

Since their marriage broke up in 2016, Xiabu, 62, and Jolie, 51, have been locked in a legal battle for eight years, and it wasn’t until December 2024 that they finally signed a divorce agreement. However, the personal war between the two has not subsided. They are still fighting in court over the property rights of the Château Miraval winery in France. Now, even their children have legally abandoned the father and son relationship one after another, and the situation is quite shameful.
