Brad Pitt makes 'desperate plea' to reunite with two children after 'unfixable' fallout

Send Push

Brad Pitt is said to be "desperate" to reunite with his twin children following his divorce from Angelina Jolie and enduring an explosive family fall out. The 61-year-old Hollywood star was in a relationship with Angie for 12 years and they married in 2014, and parents to six – including twins Knox and Vivienne, 16.

The star couple's relationship hit the rocks in 2016 with Angelina filing for divorce, and over the subsequent years there have been reports that Brad's relationship with his kids has suffered. Last year, Vivienne made headlines when it was revealed she had dropped "Pitt" from her last name - hinting at a severe breakdown in relations.

Now a new report has suggested Brad is "desperate" to smooth things over with his twins. However, it is suggested he will face an uphill struggle to get all his kids in one place together with him.

The report claims the F1 actor has a "glimmer of hope" that he can make amends due to the fact that while Vivienne has dropped his name from her last name, Knox has not removed "Pitt" from his last name.

A source told the Daily Mail: "Brad's desperate to give it one final shot to get together with them and make amends, even though he knows the chance they'll agree to spend time with him is remote to say the least. So far there's been no word back from the twins or their reps."

And a second source stated: "Brad is a family man. Now that he and Angie are at odds, and have for years, he has accepted that is the way it is going to be with her. But when it comes to their children, he will always want to be an anchor in their lives.

"There is a bond that parents have with their kids, and Brad would be very happy to have them all back in the fold of his life. He will always believe and always hope there is a chance to be back with all of them, and he doesn't want to think otherwise.

"He doesn't want to give up, he's not that kind of guy, he's not that kind of father. He is a proud father, and he would be happy to have them see that eventually."

imageHowever, just last month, the fallout between Brad and Pax was branded 'unfixable'. As well as Knox and Vivienne, Brad is father to Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, and Shiloh, 19, who he shares with his ex-wife.

Brad and Angeline first revealed their romance in 2005 - soon after it was announced he had split from first wife, Jennifer Aniston. The following year, they announced they were expecting their first child together - with Shiloh arriving in May 2006.

Vivienne and Knox arrived in July 2008 - and proud parents Brad and Ange married in a private ceremony at their Château in Miraval, France, in August 2014.

The couple announced their split in 2016 and a bitter divorce was launched - and while they were declared single again in 2019, points around their divorce rumbled for years after. Famously, the couple argued through lawyers in the courts over the ownership of their vineyard in France.

Following their split, Brad has since begun a relationship with 32-year-old jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, while Angelina is reportedly enjoying life as a singleton.
