Brad Pitt is “missing” his children this holiday season, a source exclusively tells Page Six.
The Oscar winner — who turns 61 on December 18 — feels like Christmas “won’t be the same” unless he can spend some time with his children.
“Brad is missing his kids and wishes he had a closer relationship with them, particularly with celebrating the holidays and his birthday this month,” the insider says.
Pitt and his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, whom he divorced in 2019, share six kids: Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Page Six previously reported that Pitt was “feeling hurt” when Shiloh officially dropped her father’s surname after making the legal request on her 18th birthday back in May.
“They used to have a good relationship but that’s in the past and it breaks his heart,” a source told us at the time. “Brad feels like Angelina has turned his kids against him.”
The insider added, “He feels like Angelina knows exactly what she’s doing.”
The emotions didn’t stop there, however. Just last month, an insider told us that Pitt felt that Jolie, 49, purposely walked the red carpet with their son Knox at the 2024 Governors Awards “to push his buttons.”
A a source told Page Six at the time, “Brad finds it a bit coincidental that a judge signed off on the [Château] Miraval trial just days before Knox joined Angelina at the Governors Awards.”
The insider noted, however, that the “Fight Club” star is “thankful he has an amazing partner” in his 31-year-old girlfriend, Ines de Ramon.
Ramon, who Pitt began dating in 2022, “is supportive and Brad is looking forward to ringing in the new year with her.”
A rep for Pitt did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
