Shiloh Jolie and Brad Pitt Draw New Attention at Los Angeles Premiere
shiloh jolie is part of the family story shadowing Brad Pitt’s latest red-carpet appearance: he and Ines de Ramon attended the Mercedes-AMG world premiere at the Sixth Street Bridge in Los Angeles on Tuesday night and posed hand-in-hand. The public date night landed just after Zahara Marley Jolie’s graduation drew attention for the name read at Spelman College.
Los Angeles Red Carpet
Pitt, 62, and de Ramon, 33, have been dating since 2022. Their appearance at the Mercedes-AMG world premiere kept the focus on a couple that has kept showing up together in public while Pitt’s family life continues to be part of the conversation around him.
That Tuesday-night outing came after a stretch in which several of his children have chosen to distance themselves publicly from his surname. Zahara was announced as Zahara Marley Jolie at her graduation, not Jolie-Pitt, a choice that had already been visible when she dropped Pitt’s surname publicly in 2023 during her induction into the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority.
Zahara Jolie at Spelman
Zahara Jolie graduated over the weekend from Spelman College with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology. Angelina Jolie attended with Pax and Knox, while Maddox, Shiloh, and Vivienne did not appear to be present at the ceremony.
A source said, “It’s a shame people feel the need to cast a shadow over [the graduation] by taking a dig at a father who has already been separated from his family.” That reaction sits alongside a long public record: Pitt and Angelina Jolie divorced in 2016 after more than a decade together, then spent years in a legal battle that reportedly wrapped in 2024 with de Ramon’s help.
Pitt, 62, and the children
Last summer, sources said Pitt still had “strained” relationships with all of his children, despite “several efforts to reconnect,” leaving him with “a lot of heartbreak.” He also said after the divorce was finalized that he wanted to “learn” and “move on.”
The red-carpet appearance does not change the family ledger, but it does show where Pitt is choosing to spend his visible time: with de Ramon, not in a public reset with the children whose surnames and attendance choices keep telling the more complicated story.
