After Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children dropped “Pitt” from their last names one by one, a source says this is “not an easy time” for the Troy actor.
According to a report published by PEOPLE magazine on June 3, a source close to Pitt revealed that the 60-year-old actor is “aware and upset” by his son's behavior.
“He is aware and upset that Shiloh dropped his last name. He never felt such joy as when she was born. “She always wanted a daughter,” the source told the outlet.
The source went on to say, “The reminders that he has lost his children, of course, are not easy for Brad. He loves his children and misses them. It's very sad.”
Despite being happy with his current girlfriend, Inés de Ramón, the source noted that the distance from his children “hurts” Brad.
Additionally, another source told the editor: “He still loves all of his children very much. “This whole process has been very hard for the entire family.”
It is pertinent to mention that Brad's eldest daughter Shiloh reportedly filed a request to remove her surname 'Pitt' on her 18th birthday on May 27.
