Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s daughter Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt has petitioned to drop Pitt from her surname.

Shiloh, who is the third-eldest child of the former Hollywood couple, filed the petition last Monday (May 27) at the Los Angeles County Superior Court as she turned 18.

According to the petition (via The Los Angeles Times), she wants to be known as Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.

It comes after two of Pitt and Jolie’s other children appear to have distanced themselves from Pitt’s name, with eldest daughter Zahara introducing herself as “Zahara Marley Jolie” in an Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority video (via Essence).

Daughter Vivienne has also recently dropped the name Pitt from a credit in Playbill for Broadway’s The Outsiders, according to People.

It comes amid Pitt and Jolie’s ongoing divorce proceedings – with Jolie filing for divorce in 2016 following an alleged physical altercation on a private plane, with one of their children, Maddix, allegedly involved in the incident.

Pitt was subject to a “child abuse investigation” in relation to the alleged incident, with the Los Angeles Department of Child and Family Services later clearing the actor of wrongdoing.

Details of the alleged altercation came to light further in 2022 after Jolie was revealed to be the plaintiff in an anonymous complaint against the FBI, which had closed an investigation into Pitt’s alleged domestic assault. Pitt has denied all allegations of wrongdoing.

The former couple have also been involved in a dispute over their French winery Château Miraval, with Pitt suing Jolie in 2022 over her alleged selling of her share of the winery without his prior consent.

Jolie claims that Pitt blocked her sale of the property and would only agree if he agreed to a “more onerous” and “expansive” NDA. Jolie has previously suggested that Pitt wants her to sign an NDA to stop her speaking out about his alleged abusive behaviour towards her and her children.

Earlier this year, Jolie’s lawyers labelled Pitt’s attempts to obtain her past NDAs with third parties as “abusive”.

In April, Jolie’s lawyers claimed that Pitt was physically abusive prior to the plane incident, with a representative for Pitt declining to comment on the new abuse allegations.
