Brad Pitt, allegedly, found out recently that his name has been removed from his children’s birth certificates.
According to New Idea, Maddox has been trying to get rid of his dad’s surname from his birth certificate. And he may, allegedly, succeed in cutting ties with Brad Pitt.
After all, Angelina Jolie adopted Maddox in 2002, while she was still married to Billy Bob Thornton.
Years later, Jolie dated Pitt. And he officially adopted Maddox in 2006. The exes’ children’s family names were then changed to Jolie-Pitt.

A year later, Jolie adopted Pax on her own first because Vietnamese law prevents unwed couples from co-adopt. A year later, Pitt adopted Pax.

The insider also claimed that the news most likely broke Pitt’s heart.
This isn’t the first time that Jolie and Pitt’s children are rumored to be trying to cut ties with their dad.

Last week, New Idea also claimed that Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has decided to drop her dad’s surname from her social media accounts.
“It’s a real kick in the teeth. This has got to hurt, for sure,” the source said.
However, it is unclear where the tabloid is getting all their claims because Shiloh doesn’t even have a known social media account.
It’s possible that the teenager has one. But she hasn’t publicly revealed her username.
Meanwhile, there have been a ton of rumors surrounding Pitt and Jolie especially now that they’re fighting over the custody of their children.

However, there’s no indication that the tabloid’s claims about Brad Pitt and Jolie are correct.
