Zahara, Maddox Jolie-Pitt step out for public outing in L.A.

Zahara and Maddox Jolie-Pitt were seen enjoying a rare public outing in Los Angeles on Tuesday, as tensions with their estranged father Brad Pitt continue to make headlines.

The siblings, aged 20 and 23 respectively, were spotted hiking through Griffith Park with their dogs, appearing relaxed and unbothered by the ongoing family drama. 

According to Daily Mail, their outing came just days after reports emerged that Brad Pitt believes his relationship with at least two of his six children is now “unfixable”, a statement that reportedly drew strong reaction from his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie.

Moreover, Pitt shares Zahara, Maddox, and Pax, whom he adopted with Jolie, as well as their biological children, Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox. 

The former Hollywood power couple officially finalized their divorce in December 2024 after a protracted eight-year legal battle.

As per the outlet, Zahara, currently on summer break, kept her look casual in denim shorts and a black T-shirt, while Maddox, now working behind the scenes in film, wore tan cargo pants and a green jacket. 

Just days earlier, Zahara sparked engagement rumors after being spotted wearing a diamond ring on a Hollywood date.

Additionally, Pitt’s relationship with his children has remained strained since Jolie filed for divorce in 2016. 

Notably, daughter Shiloh petitioned to drop "Pitt" from her last name on her 18th birthday last year, signaling deeper familial fractures.

A source close to the actor said Pitt “misses his kids” and is always open to reconciliation, but acknowledges that some of his adopted children may never want to reconnect.

Meanwhile, Pitt has been promoting his upcoming film F1, due in theaters on June 27, and spoke to GQ this month, calling the finalization of his divorce “just something coming to fruition—legally.”
