Angelina Jolie recently made headlines for allegedly deciding to disinherit five of her six children, leaving her entire $116 million fortune to her son Maddox. This decision is reportedly based on the invaluable support Maddox provided during her difficult divorce from Brad Pitt.
Brad Pitt, Jolie’s ex-husband, is upset by this perceived favoritism. He believes treating Maddox as the “Golden Child” while excluding the other children is unfair and could create family tension.
The Jolie-Pitt family has already faced significant turmoil, with a highly publicized divorce and a custody battle. Jolie filed for divorce in 2016, citing dissatisfaction with Pitt’s parenting. An incident involving Pitt and Maddox led to an investigation, though no charges were filed, further straining their relationship.
Pitt insists all his children deserve fair treatment and a share of Jolie’s wealth. If these inheritance plans are accurate, the conflict between Jolie and Pitt over their children’s well-being may continue for years, highlighting the complexities of family dynamics amid fame and fortune.
