Brad Pitt's strained relationship with his children has once again come under the spotlight after reports claimed he did not congratulate daughter Zahara Jolie on her graduation from Spelman College. The latest claims have added another layer to the long-running tension between Pitt and ex-wife Angelina Jolie, with both sides continuing to push very different versions of what has happened behind closed doors.
The situation has become even more painful for Pitt in recent years as several of his children have chosen to distance themselves publicly from him, including dropping his surname. While sources close to Jolie argue that Pitt's fractured bond with the children is the result of his own actions, those defending the actor insist he has spent years trying to repair the relationship. Behind the headlines, the divide has reportedly stretched far beyond just Pitt himself, with members of his extended family also said to have lost contact with the children over the years.
