Angelina Jolie’s daughter Shiloh Jolie dropped her dad Brad Pitt’s last name due to “painful events” in her life, according to her lawyer.

In a statement to Pvnew, Shiloh’s attorney, Peter Levine, denied that the 18-year-old took out a newspaper ad to announce the name change.

“Shiloh Jolie did not take out an ‘ad’ announcing any name change, and any press reporting that is inaccurate,” Levine told us.

“As Shiloh’s attorney, I am required to publish a legal notice because the law in California requires that of anyone who wants to change their name. That legal notice was published in the Los Angeles Times, as is required.”

The lawyer stated that the media “should be more careful in their reporting, especially when covering a young adult who has made an independent and significant decision following painful events, and is merely following legal process.”

Levine’s statement comes after an insider confirmed to Pvnew that the legal notice was published in the newspaper.

Pvnew has reached out to Pitt’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.

The teen is seeking to change her name from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.

She filed to legally drop “Pitt” from her surname on her 18th birthday in May.

That same month, fans also noticed her 16-year-old sister followed suit when she was listed as Vivienne Jolie in “The Outsiders” Playbill.

Meanwhile, Pitt, 60, was reportedly “aware and upset” that Shiloh dropped his last name.

“He’s never felt more joy than when she was born. He always wanted a daughter,” a source told People last month.

“The reminders that he’s lost his children is, of course, not easy for Brad. He loves his children and misses them. It’s very sad.”

The insider noted that even though the “Fight Club” actor is “happy” with girlfriend Ines de Ramon, the division from his six kids “pains him.”

But Shiloh and Vivienne aren’t the only ones to drop the A-lister’s last name.

Zahara, 19, also dropped her dad’s name during her Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority induction at Spelman College in Atlanta last November.

And in 2021, Us Weekly reported that Maddox, 22, “doesn’t use Pitt as his last name on documents that aren’t legal and instead uses Jolie.”

Jolie, 49, and Pitt were declared legally single in 2019. They are also parents to Pax, 20, and Vivienne’s twin brother, Knox, 16.
