Despite their short but lovely marriage coming to an abrupt end, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had some amazing kids.
In addition to having the most famous double surname, Vivienne, 15, is the picture perfect daughter of picture-perfect parents and one of the most beautiful young women living. Her twin brother Knox and biological sister Shiloh share this surname.
Read on to learn more about the newest member of the Pitt-Jolie family!
Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt was born into an aristocratic Hollywood family and became well-known at an early age.
After the birth of their twins in 2008, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, anticipating a circus of media attention, took control of the situation and sold People and Hello! the rights to the kids’ earliest photos! They donated the $14 million they collected from the sale of the images to their organization, the Maddox-Jolie-Pitt Foundation.
In a 2008 Rolling Stone interview, Brad Pitt talked about how the paparazzi invaded their personal lives, stating, “Well, we get run out of every major city.” That’s the cause of my b****ing. These photographers are pursuing the kids as they call out their names.
All eyes were focused on the couple and their growing family, though.
At the age of fifteen, Vivienne Marcheline, who went by her mother’s name Angelina Jolie, is widely recognized as one of the most stunning young women in the world. She is the youngest of six children, with her twin brother Knox being a few seconds older.
Given how stunning her parents are, it should come as no surprise that their children share their beauty.
Her father, a good-looking 60-year-old, is one of the only two men to have won People’s Sexiest Guy Alive twice, along with George Clooney and Johnny Depp. Numerous times, her mother has been named the world’s most beautiful woman.
Parents
In 1990, a young man from Missouri started to change Hollywood. His charming grin, bleached blonde hair, and innate acting abilities captivated every scene.
His perfectly sculpted features and dimples make him incredibly attractive to women. All he needed to win their hearts was a cowboy hat and a seductive sequence starring Geena Davis from the 1991 film Thelma and Louise.
Whether he plays a vicious psychopath in Kalifornia, an assassin in Bullet Train, or a kind-hearted blood sucker in Interview with the Vampire, Pitt never fails to captivate an audience that can’t get enough of him.
Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were one of the most alluring couples in Hollywood in the early 2000s, so many fans were devastated when they announced their divorce in 2005.
Only one month after Aniston filed for divorce, there were reports that the 48-year-old Mr. and Mrs. Smith actress and the Once Upon a Time star were dating.
Although the exact cause of Aniston and Pitt’s breakup remains unknown to the public, the Tomb Raider actress insists that the two were not intimate until Pitt’s divorce was finalized.
“To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive,” she said, alluding to her father’s adultery. Her father is the well-known actor Jon Voight, who played Angelina Jolie’s father in the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider movie from 2001. She continued, saying, “I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that.” I would not be interested in a man who had an affair with his wife.
The couple’s biological kid Shiloh was born in 2006, and they were married in 2014, together with Knox and Vivienne. The family also consists of three adopted children: Maddox Jolie-Pitt, 22, from Cambodia, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 18, and Pax Thien, 19, from Vietnam.
The Tomb Raider star explained that every child has reaped tremendous benefits from having a cosmopolitan upbringing.
They’re genuinely amazing people, and I think their sheer quantity has greatly influenced one another. Not that I led anything, really. I’m resolved to not give any of her children the benefit of the doubt. I always tell the truth to my children. And I’m incredibly human when it comes to my kids,” Jolie previously told People.
There are six remarkably diverse people living in my house. I’m infatuated with all the different stages, feelings, and interests that children go through. From whence could you not be? It’s our responsibility to help them find their identity. You can’t learn who they are if you don’t actively grow alongside them, she added.

Furthermore, since their divorce in 2019, Jolie and the Oceans 11 actress have shared parental responsibilities for the children.
Vivienne
Jolie greeted her, “My mother comes to mind every time I see or say Vivienne’s full name.”
“I dare to say Viv is proving to resemble Ange in spirit, attitude, and physicality,” says Vivienne’s loving father. with regard to her character. She has the same grace as her mother.
The screen that she and her mother are using is the same one.
Vivienne costarred with her Oscar-winning mother as a young Princess Aurora in the 2014 film Maleficent. when he was five years old.
Jolie told Entertainment Weekly that she didn’t think Vivienne would be in the film and that she thinks parents should give their children the freedom to make their own decisions.
“Although they like coming on set and making brief cameos, our kids are not actors in our eyes. That’s not at all what Brad and I hope to accomplish. However, none of the other [performers], who were three and four years old, would come up to me. It had to be a child that liked me and didn’t run from my eyes, claws, or horns. It had to be Viv after all.
Although Vivienne is now assisting her mother in creating the Broadway musical adaptation of The Outsiders, which is scheduled to open in April 2024, her only performing credit to far is this one.
For the stage adaptation of the 1983 movie of the same name, Jolie’s daughter Viv acts as her assistant. Jolie told E! News that 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 is very thoughtful and serious about it, and she works really hard to figure out how she can contribute to the theater.”
benevolent spirit
Apart from her hereditary endowments, Vivienne’s magnanimous disposition stems from her generous parents. In 2019, she was seen at a neighboring dog park in Los Angeles, where she was selling treats to raise money for a nearby rescue shelter.
As a passionate animal lover, Vivienne was devastated to hear in 2020 that her favorite bunny had passed away. Jolie spoke with Harper’s Bazaar on the loss and said,Following the death of Vivienne’s bunny during surgery, we adopted two cute but little rabbits with disabilities. They have to work in pairs. Because they are so gentle, it has been helpful to focus on their care for her at this time. And speaking of dogs, snakes, and lizards…
It’s amazing that the twins are fifteen years old, and it will be interesting to see what they decide to do with their lives.

A Woman Threw Away Her Childhood Jacket at the Dump – The Next Day, a Homeless Woman Showed Up at Her Doorstep Holding It
After Catherine tossed a childhood jacket, she thought she had let go of her painful past. But the next morning, a knock at the door brought her face-to-face with someone she hadn’t seen in decades and forced her to make a choice she might end up regretting.
That Saturday morning started like any other. Catherine tied her hair up, pulled on her faded blue sweatshirt, and grabbed a bucket of cleaning supplies. Her husband, Andrew, had taken the kids into the city to run errands, and she’d decided to tackle the attic, something she’d been putting off for months.

As she climbed the ladder, she felt a slight chill in the air. January wasn’t exactly the best time for attic cleaning, but it was better than leaving it undone.
Dust motes floated in the thin streams of light peeking through the small attic window as Catherine started opening old boxes. Each one was like peeling back a layer of her life: baby photos of her kids, mementos from her college days, and even her wedding veil.
But at the bottom of a weathered trunk, she found a small red jacket.

She froze, the sight of it pulling her back to a memory she thought she’d buried. She could almost feel the icy wind on her cheeks and hear the creak of the heavy oak doors at that old children’s shelter. It had the name of a saint that Catherine couldn’t remember.
But she would never forget being four years old, holding on to a second-hand teddy bear and being dressed in that jacket, as her mother knelt in front of her.

“Be strong, Katie,” her mother had whispered with trembling lips. With a kiss on the forehead and one last lingering glance, her mother was gone, swallowed by the snow and darkness.
Catherine hadn’t seen her since.
She stared at that small jacket, her fingers tracing the frayed edges. For years, it had been a symbol of resilience. But now, holding it, she wondered if it had also been holding her back. She was no longer that abandoned child.

She was a successful business owner, a wife, and a mother to two kids, Tom and Tana. Maybe it was time to let go.
Before she could second-guess herself, she carried the jacket downstairs and out to the curb. The trash bin lid creaked as she lifted it and tossed the jacket inside.
It felt oddly liberating, like closing the final chapter of a painful book.
***
The next morning, Catherine was just blinking awake when Andrew’s voice rang out from downstairs. “Honey, you need to come downstairs!”

She frowned and stood, throwing on her robe on the way to the door. “What’s going on?” she called out as she walked to the stairs.
When she reached the bottom, she saw Andrew standing at the front door, and their kids peeking out from behind him, eyes wide with curiosity. On the porch stood an older woman in tattered clothes. Her face was weathered and lined.
But what Catherine noticed most was that the woman clutched the red jacket in her hands. Her heart skipped a beat.

“I found this in your trash,” the woman said, her voice shaky but strong. “I… I always dig up things in the bins around this area. I was… looking for something to keep warm, and I saw it. But then I realized… I recognized it.”
When their eyes met, something inside Catherine shifted; the woman looked familiar in a way that made her stomach churn.
“Hi, Katie,” the woman said softly as tears pooled in her eyes.
For a moment, Catherine couldn’t breathe. “No,” she whispered, shaking her head. “It can’t be.”

“It’s me,” the woman said, clutching the jacket tighter. “It’s your mama.”
Andrew cleared his throat. “Maybe you should come inside,” he said gently, gesturing for the woman to venture into the house.
Catherine nodded and waved the woman over. They went into the kitchen. The kids lingered in the doorway. They were old enough to know that their mother didn’t have a mother because she had been in shelters and foster homes all her life.
So, this was probably confusing.

The woman, Margaret, sat at the kitchen table, her hands still holding onto the jacket. Catherine set a mug of tea in front of her.
“Honey,” Catherine said, gesturing to Andrew. “Can you take the kids outside to play in the snow?”
Her husband nodded and moved their reluctant kids away. They would explain what happened later, but for now, this was an adult conversation.
Once they left, Catherine sat in front of Margaret with her cup of tea. After a tense silence, she finally dared to ask, “Why now? After all these years?”

Margaret stared into her tea, her eyes glistening. “I never wanted to leave you, Katie. I swear I didn’t. But I was drowning. I had no money, no food, and barely a roof over our heads. No one would hire me and even if they did, I had no one to watch you. I thought the shelter could give you what I couldn’t.”
“You just… left me,” Catherine croaked. “You didn’t even try.”
In Margaret’s eyes, Catherine saw decades of regret. “I thought I was doing what was best for you. I told myself you’d hate me less if you grew up thinking I didn’t want you, instead of seeing me fail you every day. I pictured you being adopted by a rich family.”

Catherine clenched her fists at the words. She wanted to scream and tell Margaret to leave because none of that had happened. Her childhood had been more than rough. No one ever truly loved or cared about her.
That’s why she’d built her current life, from the ground up, with her sweat, blood, and tears. But she wouldn’t turn Margaret away. Catherine wanted to believe her.
“Well, that dream didn’t happen. And I don’t know what you want from me now,” Catherine said finally. “I’m not that little girl anymore. I’ve built a life, a good one, but it was so tough to do it. I don’t know if I can let you in it.”

Margaret nodded slowly. “I understand. I don’t deserve to be a part of your life, and I see what you’ve built. It’s so much more than anything I’ve ever had. I just… I had to see you after I found the jacket. Not only that, but I had to know you were okay. That you were doing better than me, and I’m glad that you are.”
With those words, Margaret took just a small sip of her tea and stood. Catherine watched as her long-lost mother walked to the front door, her shoulders hunched in shame.

She was going to let her go, just like the jacket, but she stood. “Wait,” she called, and Margaret turned her head slightly. “You can stay for today and tonight. But after that… we’ll see.”
Margaret’s face lit up. “Thank you, Katie. Thank you.”
That night, Catherine gave Margaret clean clothes and a hot shower and set her up in the guest room. Before bed, Catherine handed her $2,000 in cash.

“This is for you,” she said. “You can use it to get back on your feet, or you can leave tomorrow and never come back. It’s your choice.”
Margaret hesitated, her eyes shining bright with tears. “I’ll make it count, Katie. I promise.”
The next morning, Catherine woke early and went downstairs, half expecting to find the guest room empty.
It was. The bed was neatly made, and Margaret was gone. Additionally, the cash was nowhere to be seen. Catherine sighed, shaking her head. She should’ve known better.

She was relieved they’d only introduced Margaret to the kids as an old friend, not their grandmother.
Catherine knew her kids were skeptical of this explanation, especially since they’d overheard Margaret saying, “Your mama,” but they would have to forget about it.
She didn’t want them to experience any kind of abandonment. Their lives had to be different from hers. Feeling it again was already painful enough.
Two hours later, as the family sat down to eat breakfast, the sound of a key turning in the lock made them all freeze.

The door opened, and Margaret walked in, her arms full of grocery bags.
“Good morning! I went out to the market early. I thought I’d make some soup for lunch,” Margaret said with a small smile. “And maybe roast a chicken for the kids. Oh, I grabbed the keys from that bowl. I hope you don’t mind.”
Catherine blinked as her eyes darted between her mother and Andrew. “No,” she said softly. “I don’t mind.”
Andrew smiled and seeing their parents happy, the kids got excited about roasted chicken.
Margaret spent the day cooking and playing with the children. By dinnertime, the house was filled with warmth and laughter as she doted on Tom and Tana.

It was something Catherine would never have expected in a million years. Even more surprising was the fact that she didn’t want Margaret to leave.
A few days later, she told her children who Margaret truly was, and a little more about her childhood, as well as why Margaret hadn’t been around until now.
They took the story seriously, but their hearts were so pure they forgave Margaret immediately, and it only took a few more weeks before they started calling her grandma.

So, Margaret stayed and became a part of their lives. She helped with the kids, lent a hand with Catherine’s jewelry business, and even showed a knack for designing new pieces.
Catherine forgave her mother, not all at once, but slowly, piece by piece. And in doing so, she found something she didn’t know she needed: a family that felt complete.
Eventually, she bought a new red jacket to symbolize this life she built from effort… but also, compassion.
