Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt’s romance may be left in the long-distant past, but that doesn’t mean the pair aren’t capable of worrying about one another.
That’s at least the case where Aniston is concerned, with the Friends star said to be concerned for her former husband after the unearthing of an Instagram post written by his adopted son wherein Pitt was labeled a ‘f*****g awful human being’.
As per reports, Pax Jolie-Pitt wrote the scathing post back in 2020, but it came to the media’s attention late last week. In response, Fight Club star Pitt was said to be less than happy about the fact that it had started to circulate.
The post in question – made on Father’s Day – saw Pax hold nothing back as he aired his obvious frustrations and let his feelings towards his adoptive father known.
Pax was adopted by Angelina Jolie from an orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in 2007. Pax was just three years old at the time, having been left in the orphanage as a newborn baby by his biological mother, who was addicted to heroin.
As per reports, Pitt became Pax’s adoptive father almost right away, but it would appear that not all has been smooth sailing with regards to their relationship.
“You have made the lives of those closest to me a constant hell,” Pax allegedly wrote on his private Instagram account in 2020.
“You may tell yourself and the world whatever you want, but the truth will come to light someday.“
He finished: “So Happy Father’s Day, you f*****g awful human being.”
According to new reports citing an insider, Troy star Brad is finding it “depressing to see this dragged up” again years after the fact.
A source close to the matter told The Sun: “It’s frustrating to see Brad being painted as some kind of ”bad person’; when it’s far from the truth.”
It was also claimed that Brad has “great respect” for all of his children, and is maintaining a “dignified silence” where Pax’s unearthed post is concerned.
New reports in OK! Magazine now claim that Pitt’s ex-wife Jennifer Anniston has been his “rock of support” this past week.
A source is said to have told OK!: “Her first thought was how upset he must be. To be attacked in that way by someone he cares about so dearly will have been heartbreaking for him.”
The source continued: “A lot of people assume they don’t talk as their break-up was so fraught, but they have been in touch for years and she has always been a rock of support.
“They have become good friends despite all the heartache. Jen cares deeply about Brad and vice versa.”
Pitt and his former partner, actress Angelina Jolie, are parents to six children: 22-year-old Maddox, 19-year-old Pax, 18-year-old Zahara, 17-year-old Shiloh, and 15-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Aniston, meanwhile, is still grieving the recent loss of former Friends co-star Matthew Perry. The pair remained close friends after the show’s culmination in 2004, and the suddenness of Perry’s death is said to have knocked Aniston off her feet.
