Brad Pitt was not present at daughter Zahara’s graduation over the weekend — but the rest of the 21-year-old’s family members showed up in full force.
Angelina Jolie was photographed at the Spelman College ceremony with sons Pax, 22, and Knox, 17, over the weekend.
The actress, 50, covered up in a floor-length gray coat and a pair of black boots.
Zahara’s brothers suited up for the occasion.
The graduate, of course, rocked a black cap and gown, with a white dress peeking out from the bottom.
Her other siblings — Maddox, 24, Shiloh, 19, and Vivienne, 17 — did not appear to be present at the Atlanta, Georgia, event.
Zahara, notably, dropped her dad’s last name while walking onstage to receive her diploma for her Bachelor of Arts in psychology on Sunday.
Instead of Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt, she was announced to the crowd as Zahara Marley Jolie.
With headlines swirling about the diss on Monday, a source told Page Six, “It’s a shame people feel the need to cast a shadow over this celebration by taking a dig at a father who has already been separated from his family,”
Pitt’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The “Fight Club” star and Jolie divorced in 2016 after more than a decade together, kicking off a contentious and years-long legal battle.
Since the breakup, the former couple’s kids have repeatedly sparked chatter by ditching Pitt’s surname.
Zahara did so at her 2023 Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority introduction, with Vivienne doing the same when listed in the Broadway Playbill for her work on “The Outsiders.”
Shiloh went as far as to legally drop the last name in 2024, which reportedly left Pitt “devastated.”
Us Weekly gave an update on the actor’s estrangement from the brood last year, claiming he has made “several efforts to reconnect” unsuccessfully and carries the “deep emotional weight” of this.
The outlet alleged Pitt “periodically” sees Knox and Vivienne, while “the rest of the relationships are strained.”
