Friends of Hollywood star Brad Pitt have revealed disturbing information about the actor’s anguish over his alienation from his three adoptive children.

Pitt’s acquaintances have blamed his former wife Angelina Jolie for the actor’s condition, claiming the “Maleficent” actress committed ‘classic parental estrangement.’

The “Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood” star is claimed to be sobbing quietly as he misses all of his children.

Maddox, 22, Pax, 19, and Zahara, 18, are all said to be estranged from their adoptive father, with only his three biological children Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15, continuing to visit him under a custody agreement.

It came to light after a video of Zahara attending a sorority induction event at Spelman College in Atlanta went viral, in which she appears omitting Pitt from her name and presenting herself as Zahara Jolie rather than Zahara Jolie-Pitt, her official name.

Both Maddox and Pax are alleged to have ditched the Pitt surname in casual settings ‘years ago.’
