Angelina Jolie’s daughter, Vivienne Jolie seems done with her father Brad Pitt. In a playbill of a Broadway show, ‘The Outsiders’ in which she is working with her mother, she was simply listed as “Vivienne Jolie.”

Vivienne Jolie reportedly worked on the broadway show serving as an assistant producer alongside her mother who helped produced the musical. The change in Vivienne’s name was confirmed by PEOPLE but is still unclear whether it has been legally altered.

The former "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" co-stars are parents to six children: Shiloh, Zahara, Vivienne, Knox, Pax, and Maddox. Growing up under constant public scrutiny and the fallout from their parents' highly publicized split has deeply impacted the family. The once golden couple of Hollywood has seen their children start to take clear positions amidst the ongoing discord, with actions that have turned into significant, albeit quiet, setbacks for Pitt.

But Vivienne is not the first Jolie and Pitt’s child who has denounced her father’s last name. The couple's eldest daughter Zahara, introduced herself sans Pitt in her name, “Zahara Marley Jolie,” while joining the "Alpha Kappa Alpha" sorority at Spelman College.

In August 2022, a source close to Brad Pitt shared with PEOPLE that the 60-year-old actor was striving to improve his relationship with his children despite the protracted custody dispute with his ex-wife. The insider noted, “It's been a sad situation for years.”

“Since Angelina filed for divorce, Brad has been focused on having the best relationship possible with his kids,” said the insider. “It's been very difficult for him. Many times, there have been long gaps where he didn't see the kids at all.”

At the musical’s premiere in April 2024, Jolie shared with PEOPLE that her daughter, Vivienne, was the inspiration behind her involvement in the project. “She saw an early workshop a few times and then invited me to it," Jolie remarked.

“Viv is a young artist who focuses her efforts on her support of others,” Jolie continued. “She has been incredibly helpful and has gained invaluable knowledge from [score and co-book writer] Justin Levine and the entire team.”

Recently a new allegation has surfaced against Angelina Jolie. Tony Webb, a former security guard for the family, filed court documents claiming that Jolie supposedly influenced her children to "avoid" spending time with their father during visits.
