'He's changed and he wants Angelina and Pax to see it' Brad Pitt wants to make peace with son who called him a 'world-class asshole'

'He's changed and he wants Angelina and Pax to see it' Brad Pitt wants to make peace with son who called him a 'world-class asshole'

Brad Pitt is very worried about a quarrel with his son Pax, who recently got into a serious accident, and wants to make peace with him, an insider told In Touch Weekly.

According to the source, despite the fight with his son, the actor is very depressed that he cannot be with him at such a moment. "It's like a knife in the heart for him. It's Brad's worst nightmare - his son is in crisis, but Brad can't do anything to help him. It's tearing him up inside," the source says.

He noted that Pitt had tried to contact his son. "Brad has tried to contact Pax, but Pax is not answering his calls. All Brad can do is wait and worry alone. He is deeply worried and heartbroken." Pax's relationship with his adoptive father leaves much to be desired: last year, an old Instagram post by Pax, which he posted on Father's Day* when he was 16 (in 2020), went viral online. In it, Pax calls his adoptive father a "world-class asshole" who "made his life hell," a "horrible and despicable person" who "makes his children tremble in fear."

According to the source, Pitt has now realized everything and has changed: since alcohol addiction destroyed his relationship with Angelina and his children, he remains sober. . "He has changed. He would like Angelina and Pax to be able to see that. Angelina will most likely never change her mind about Brad, but he really wants Pax to come to his senses one day. Brad will not give up on fighting for his son."

Pax was involved in an accident at the end of July: the 20-year-old guy was riding a motorcycle without a helmet and crashed into a car, receiving serious injuries. Witnesses to the accident were even sure that Pax died. Pitt himself believes that Angelina is to blame, who allowed her son to buy a motorcycle. In his opinion, his son should not have ridden an electric motorcycle without a helmet and special equipment. The actor was allegedly initially against buying such a vehicle for Pax, insisting on buying a car. "Brad thinks that Pax should not ride without a helmet - he should be in the car," the insider said, hinting that Angelina approved the purchase of an electric motorcycle for her son.

The actors have six children in total, three of whom are adopted: 22-year-old Maddox, 19-year-old Zahara and 20-year-old Pax, and three are biological: 18-year-old Shiloh and 15-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. Pitt has had a very tense relationship with all of his children lately.
