Shiloh Jolie-Pitt: This is her today

“She only wants to be called John. John or Peter. So it’s a Peter Pan thing. So we’ve got to call her John,” he said.

“So we’ve got to call her John. ‘Shi, do you want …’ – ‘John. I’m John.’ And then I’ll say, ‘John, would you like some orange juice?’ And she goes, ‘No!’ So, you know, it’s just that kind of stuff that’s cute to parents, and it’s probably really obnoxious to other people.”

Despite their divorce in 2019, her parents fully support her choice of name and her desire to match clothes with her brothers.

“She wants to be a boy,” Angelina told Vanity Fair. “So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys’ everything. She thinks she’s one of the brothers.”

Mom Angelina approved of the name change despite the name Shiloh having a personal meaning to her.

“It was a name my parents almost named their first child — there was a miscarriage: Shiloh Baptist. Because my father had been shooting in Georgia and that was the most southern name [my parents] could come up with,” she explained.

“It’s a name I always liked. I used to go under it in hotels: Shiloh Baptist. I’d gone under it when Brad called hotel rooms where I was staying.”

Despite Brad and Angelina’s divorce, Shiloh maintains a good relationship with both her parents.

What’s more, according to media reports, Brad Pitt is a very proud father.

“Brad’s kids are the most important thing to him. He tells his friends he learns so much about life from his own children,” a source told Entertainment Tonight, continuing:

“He and Angie have been getting along so much better since the custody rules have been worked out. They have come so far.”

Doesn’t Shiloh look so very much like her father? Many also think that she has inherited her mother’s lips.

“Brad is so proud of Shiloh and who she has become. He loves that she always stays true to herself and is so good to her brothers and sisters,” one source told ET.

Fast forward to March 2020, and Angelina Jolie revealed that her daughter had undergone surgery. She wrote for Time, in connection to International Women’s Day.

“I have spent the last two months in and out of surgeries with my eldest daughter [Zahara], and days ago watched her younger sister [Shiloh] go under the knife for hip surgery.

“So my wish on this day is that we value girls. Care for them. And know that the stronger they grow, the healthier they will be and the more they will give back to their family and community.”

In 2011, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt turned heads again when she showed up at the U.K. premiere of Marvel’s “Eternals”.

According to People, she wore the same black-and-white Dior her mother sported back in 2019 when Angelina attended a press conference for “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil”.

Shiloh’s new appearance and choice of clothing made many raise their eyebrows. But this was not the first time Shiloh had borrowed her mother’s dress. In July 2021, Shiloh wore her mom’s Gabriela Hearst dress when she attended the US. premiere of “Eternals”.

We can all learn a lot from Brad and Angelina’s handling of this situation; allowing Shiloh to embrace what she’s comfortable wearing and how she wants her hair styled.
