November 26, 2024: Angelina Jolie made a solo appearance at the Torino Film Festival following backlash over attending a recent event with her son, Knox. This comes amid ongoing allegations that the actress has been using her children to upset ex-husband Brad Pitt during their long-running legal feud.
Jolie Walks Alone at Torino Film Festival
The Hollywood actress stepped onto the red carpet alone at the Torino Film Festival, where she promoted her directorial project Without Blood. Her solo appearance comes just days after attending the Governor Awards with her 16-year-old son, Knox. The event sparked controversy, with some critics alleging Jolie’s decision to bring Knox—who bears a strong resemblance to Pitt—was a deliberate attempt to provoke her ex-husband.
According to a source quoted by Daily Express US, Pitt found Knox’s presence at the high-profile event “odd,” particularly given the timing. The source stated, “Brad only gets to see his children when they walk the red carpet with their mom, and the timing of this could not be any more suspicious considering it was just decided that he and Angie are headed to trial over Château Miraval.”
Allegations of Strained Relationships
The ongoing animosity between Jolie and Pitt has reportedly affected the actor’s relationship with their children. A source alleged, “Angelina has turned the kids against him over the years, and they’ve had no opportunity to form their own opinions about their father.” The insider added that Knox has no interest in Hollywood and has little to no communication with Pitt, which further fuels the actor’s frustration.
Jolie, however, has denied allegations of manipulating her children. In rare comments on motherhood, she emphasized her efforts to provide a supportive environment for her kids amid public scrutiny.
A Complicated History
Pitt and Jolie, once Hollywood’s golden couple, were together for over a decade before separating in 2016 after two years of marriage. The fallout of their split has included a bitter custody battle over their six children—Maddox (23), Pax (20), Zahara (19), Shiloh (18), and twins Knox and Vivienne (16)—and a protracted legal dispute over their $500-million French winery, Château Miraval.
Jolie’s solo appearance at the Torino Film Festival may be an effort to shift focus back to her work as a filmmaker. However, the ongoing public and legal battles with Pitt continue to cast a shadow over her public appearances.
