Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s divorce was finalized in December 2024, yet the headlines keep coming-this time about what their six kids are doing now.
Who’s Doing What in 2025
**Maddox flies planes, Zahara attends Spelman College, Shiloh legally removed “Pitt,” Pax healed after a serious bike accident, and the twins-Knox and Vivienne-stay low-key while the youngest daughter works Broadway gigs.
- Maddox trained as a pilot and studied biochemistry at Yonsei University in South Korea.
- Zahara pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha at Spelman and advocates for victims’ rights on Capitol Hill with her mom.
- Shiloh changed her surname to Jolie only, a move sources say disappointed Pitt.
- Pax spent days in ICU after a helmet-free e-bike crash in L.A.; Jolie never left his side.
- Vivienne volunteers as assistant on the Broadway adaptation of The Outsiders, listed in programs as Vivienne Jolie.
Family Dynamics Now
A July 2024 source told News Of Los Angeles Pitt has “virtually no contact” with adult children and only limited visitation with the 17-year-old twins. Jolie told Vogue in September 2023 that her kids “saved” her life, crediting motherhood with keeping her from a “much darker” place.
| Child | Birth/Adoption Origin | 2025 Milestone |
|---|---|---|
| Maddox | Cambodia | Licensed pilot |
| Zahara | Ethiopia | Spelman sophomore, AKA member |
| Shiloh | Namibia | Legally Jolie only |
| Pax | Vietnam | Out of ICU, recovering |
| Knox & Viv | France (twins) | Teens; Vivienne on Broadway |
Jolie revealed in March 2025 that one adult son lives in her N.Y.C. apartment, which doubles as a “crash pad” for siblings.
Key Takeaways
- All six Jolie-Pitt children are now adults or near-adults pursuing college, careers, and creative projects.
- Shiloh and Vivienne have quietly dropped “Pitt” from professional and legal contexts.
- Pitt’s contact remains limited, with Jolie overseeing the bulk of day-to-day family life.
As the siblings chart separate courses, the once-photographed brood proves they’re stepping into adulthood on their own terms.
