Brad Pitt’s daughter has officially requested to be stripped of his surname amid a bitter family feud.
Shiloh, Pitt’s third child with his former partner Angelina Jolie, filed the paperwork on May 27, her 18th birthday, asking that her new legal name be Shiloh Jolie.
It follows reports that Pitt, 60, wants to repair a “broken” bond with Shiloh.
The actor’s other children – Vivienne, Zahara and Maddox – also do not use Pitt’s second name, according to reports.
Jolie and Pitt share biological daughter Shiloh and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15, and three adopted children, Maddox, 22, Pax, 20 and Zahara, 19.
The pair began publicly dating shortly after Pitt announced his divorce from Jennifer Aniston in 2005.
Jolie filed for divorce in 2016 after two years of marriage, with her and Pitt declared legally single in 2019.
A bitter divorce battle reportedly damaged Pitt’s relationship with his children.
They have allegedly argued over the circumstances in which their relationship ended and their ongoing business arrangements.
In 2022, Jolie filed court papers claiming that Pitt grabbed her by the head and attacked two of their children on a private jet in 2016.
The papers also said that Pitt verbally abused and poured alcohol on his family during the flight from France to Los Angeles.
Pitt has denied the accusations.
Authorities decided not to press charges following an FBI investigation in 2016.
Earlier this year, Jolie alleged that physical and emotional abuse began before the widely publicised plane fight.
Pax has not spoken to his father since the incident.
In 2020, he posted on his private Instagram account that Pitt was a “world class a—hole” and “despicable person” who made his four youngest children “tremble in fear”.
Pitt allegedly recently dropped his push for shared custody of their children.
