Meet the World's Most Beautiful Brood: Your Guide to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Kids

Shiloh Jolie, Zahara Jolie, Angelina Jolie, Vivienne Jolie, Maddox Jolie-Pitt and Knox Jolie-Pitt.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie looked like their family was the picture of perfection: The Mr. and Mrs. Smith co-stars-turned-lovers-turned-spouses and their six gorgeous children were aspirational and Hollywood royalty until September 2016. FBI records indicated that Pitt allegedly was physically abusive to Jolie and several of their kids during a flight from France to Los Angeles, leading Jolie to file for divorce after two years of marriage and more than 12 years as a couple. (Later in 2016, the FBI and DCFS closed investigations into the incident without filing charges.)

Today, Pitt and Jolie have been split almost as long as they were together. While declared legally single, the exes are still hashing out several issues in court, including Pitt's lawsuit against Jolie over the winery they used to share—and their sons and daughters are growing up fast: The world waited with bated breath for Shiloh's birth, and now she can vote legally!

"They’re six very strong-minded, thoughtful, worldly individuals. I’m very proud of them," Jolie gushed of her kids in a 2017 interview with Vanity Fair, one of her first after her and Pitt's breakup. "They’ve been very brave. They were very brave."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Kids

Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt

Angelina Jolie adopted son Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt from Cambodia in 2002 after filming the action blockbuster Lara Croft: Tomb Raider in the country. He was born Aug. 5, 2001, in Battambang, Cambodia, and spent the first months of his life in an orphanage. Angelina told Vanity Fair that it was love at first sight when she saw Maddox.

Maddox appeared in World War Z as a zombie alongside dad Pitt and was credited as an executive producer on his mother's passion project, First They Killed My Father, which takes place in his native Cambodia. He told PEOPLE of working with his mom, "I was trying to help whenever I could ... [She’s] fun, funny, and easy to work with. She's a wonder."

Maddox speaks fluent English, French and Korean, as well as some German, Angelina told PEOPLE. He's a skilled pilot and studied biochemistry at Yonsei University in South Korea.

Pax Thien Jolie

Jolie adopted her and Pitt's second oldest son, Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt, from Vietnam in 2007 when he was three years old, with Pitt also adopting him legally a year later. When he first came home in 2007, she called him a "tough, remarkable little person" and said he was "wild and free" since joining their family.

In 2011, Pax voiced the character Yoo alongside his megastar mom in Kung Fu Panda 3 and was a set photographer on First They Killed My Father with Jolie and Maddox in 2017, according to PEOPLE.

Pax has been the most vocal about his acrimonious relationship with his father. On his private Instagram account in 2020, he captioned a photo of Pitt winning his Best Supporting Actor Oscar, "You have no consideration or empathy toward your 4 youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence. You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you're incapable of doing so." He added that Pitt allegedly "made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell ... You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want but the truth will come to light someday. So Happy Father's Day, you f--king awful human being."

Zahara Marley Jolie

Zahara Marley Jolie was born Jan. 8, 2005, in Ethiopia, and Angelina adopted her and brought her home when she was 7 months old. Today, she's a student at Spelman College, an Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority sister, humanitarian and a jewelry designer, with proceeds from her line going to shelters for domestic violence survivors. She frequently travels with Angelina to lobby for laws and causes related to survivors of domestic and child abuse.

In a video from her pledging to Alpha Kappa Alpha at Spelman, Zahara introduced herself as "Zahara Marley Jolie," but it's not known if she legally dropped Pitt's last name.

Shiloh Nouvel Jolie

Shiloh Nouvel Jolie was the most famous baby on the planet before she was even born on May 27, 2006, in Swakopmund, Namibia. She made headlines just after her 18th birthday in 2024 when it was revealed that she legally changed her last name to drop the "Pitt" half, even reportedly hiring her own legal team to do so.

Shiloh is a passionate humanitarian like her momma, as well as a talented dancer and a fan of Måneskin and Paul Mescal.

The girl's got taste!

Vivienne Marceline Jolie

Born July 12, 2008, Vivienne Marceline Jolie is Knox's fraternal twin.

She appeared as a young Aurora in the 2014 Disney smash Maleficent alongside her as the title baddie-turned-antihero, and in 2024 served as a producer with Angelina on Broadway's The Outsiders musical adaptation. (She was credited as Vivienne Jolie, nixing the Pitt part of her surname, though it's not yet known if her name change was a legal one as well.)

Angelina said in a statement at the time, "Viv reminds me of my mother in that she isn't focused on being the center of attention but in being a support to other creatives. She's very thoughtful and serious about theatre and working hard to best understand how to contribute."

Aside from her love of theatre, Vivienne is also the proud caretaker of adopted pet bunnies. Aw!

Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt

Pictured here at the far right, Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt flies furthest under the radar out of the erstwhile Brangelina's brood. Shortly after his birth, Jolie described Knox to PEOPLE as "a lot like Brad, emotionally and physically."

Alongside Pax, Knox had a voice role in Kung Fu Panda 3 as Ku Ku and was spotted selling some homemade organic dog treats with his siblings at a park in 2019. Cute!
