Brad Pitt's Daughter With Angelina Jolie, Shiloh, Wants to Drop Her Father's Last Name
After Suri, the daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, dropped her father's family name, another celebrity kid also wants to drop hers, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
As she enters the age of 18 and officially becomes a legal adult, Shiloh has filed paperwork to officially drop "Pitt" from her surname and only be called Shiloh Jolie. This is unlike Suri, who is still officially named Suri Cruise and has only dropped her father's name when named in productions.
TMZ managed to get its hands on a copy of the document where the celebrity child requested the government to drop her father's surname from hers. The document was filed on May 27, Memorial Day, which also happened to be her 18th birthday. This meant that her first act as an adult was to officially drop Brad Pitt's name and just be Shiloh Jolie.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are currently in the middle of an ugly divorce battle in court. It was first filed in 2016 and has been dragging on to this day and it has already put a strain on the celebrities' relationship with their children, especially between Brad and Shiloh.
It was noted that the request from Shiloh has not been granted yet, so the name change has is still not official for now. However, it would only be a matter of time before it does and she may also only be the first among Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's children to do so, as many more are expected to follow their sister.
