Brad Pitt's kids Zahara and Maddox spotted on hike amid family drama
Zahara Marley Jolie and Maddox Jolie-Pitt were seen on a rare outing in Los Angeles on Tuesday amid drama with their estranged father Brad Pitt.
The siblings were spotted enjoying a lowkey hike at Griffith Park with their dogs, brushing aside brushed aside any family tension.
Earlier this week, it was revealed the actor believes his relationship with two of his kids is now 'unfixable'.
Brad shares Zahara, 20, Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, as well as biological children Shiloh, 19, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 16, with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie
Following a lengthy eight-year battle, the pair's divorce was officially finalized late last year in December.
Bad reportedly has a strained relationship with some of his children following his split from Jolie in 2016.
Last year on her 18th birthday, their daughter Shiloh notably filed a petition to drop Pitt from her last name.
At the time, a source told 'He knew this was coming and there is nothing he can do about it right now. It's sad but Brad's strained relationship with his kids and Angelina is just a way of life for him now.'
However, the insider further explained that the actor has always left the door open if his estranged children wanted to reconnect.
On Monday night, amid the turmoil, Pitt opened up about how important family is to him - amid his ongoing and escalating estrangement from his children.
Speaking at the F1 premiere in Mexico City - he said: 'No matter the mistake, you just learn from [it] and move on,' he told ET. 'It'll lead to the next success.'
He added: 'When you get to my age, you realize how important it is to surround yourself with the people you love, the people that love you back.'
'Friends, family, and that's it. From there, we get to go make things. It's a pretty simple, I think, equation.'
The interview comes after a source exclusively told how Pitt felt after Pax was pictured last month stumbling out of the Chateau Marmont, propped up by several friends.
'He has zero concern with what Pax does or doesn't do. [Pax's] actions reflect who he is,' the insider said.
'Brad honestly considers his relationship with Pax unfixable,' they added.
The source went on to say that the actor doesn't appear to be planning any outreach to either of his adopted sons: 'Pax and Maddox have made it abundantly clear how they feel, and Brad has nothing to say about either of them.'
As to his other children, the source said Brad 'holds out hope that the others will one day come around. Time heals wounds'.
