Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the daughter of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, has been captivating the world’s attention ever since she was born. Now, as she grows up, she is becoming her own person in the celebrity realm.
Shiloh’s birth in the town of Swakopmund, Namibia, was met with great excitement from fans. People magazine exclusively shared the official birth photos, and news outlets covered every detail of the story. On May 27, 2006, Shiloh joined her siblings Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, marking a special milestone for her parents.
Even though Shiloh already had siblings, she was Angelina and Brad’s first biological child. According to Jolie’s brother, James Haven, it was heartwarming to see how Brad and Angelina adored their newborn daughter. With her father’s eye color and her mother’s pouty lips, Shiloh already had distinctive features from both parents.
During Shiloh’s early days, her older brother Maddox had already assumed the role of a protective big brother. He even imitated his dad while holding his new little sister. Angelina had prepared Maddox for Shiloh’s arrival, and he understood the significance of having a new family member.
Shiloh’s arrival brought joy not only to her parents but also to her grandparents. Brad’s parents, Bill and Jane Pitt, flew to Namibia to meet their granddaughter, and Angelina’s mom, Marcheline Bertrand, expressed her happiness about the arrival.
Two years later, Shiloh became a big sister when her younger siblings, Knox and Vivienne, were born. The twins, delivered by Dr. Michael Sussman, came into the world via C-section, just like Shiloh. Brad stood by Angelina’s side, providing her with the strength she needed during the birth. The twins were born healthy, weighing 5.03 lbs and 5 lbs.
In an exclusive interview with Vanity Fair, Angelina gushed about her children and their unique qualities. She described Shiloh as “hysterically funny” and one of the most playful individuals. Angelina also observed similarities between herself and Shiloh, reminiscing about her own days of dressing up in costumes and jumping around.
While Shiloh physically resembles her father, Angelina emphasized the distinctive features that make her stand out. With her blonde hair and blue eyes, Shiloh may sometimes feel like the “family’s outcast.” Angelina also shared her initial reservations about having a biological child after adopting, but seeing Brad’s love for their adopted children reassured her that Shiloh would never be ignored.
The Jolie-Pitt family has cultivated an environment that allows their children to express themselves freely. Shiloh’s parents have always supported her in exploring her preferences, fashion choices, and even potential careers. As a child, Shiloh expressed a desire to be called “John” and wore clothes typically associated with boys. Brad explained that this was part of her personal journey and they respected her choices.
Angelina described Shiloh’s typical look as one that includes ties, jackets, and slacks. She highlighted how Shiloh feels like she is one of her brothers and expressed her fascination with her daughter’s unique style. However, Angelina emphasized that she would never force Shiloh to be someone she is not, as that would go against good parenting.
Despite the challenges of their divorce, Shiloh’s parents have remained close to her. Brad is immensely proud of the person Shiloh has become and holds fatherhood as his highest priority. He often shares how much he learns from his children with his friends, showing just how important they are to him.
As Shiloh has grown older, her fashion sense has evolved. In 2021, at the “Eternals” premiere in Los Angeles, she showcased a new look. Wearing a tank dress and ballet sandals, her strong resemblance to Angelina was evident. This was a departure from her previous appearances, where she often wore slacks. Angelina has described Shiloh’s style as androgynous, even coining the term “Montenegro” to describe it.
Now 17 years old, Shiloh has not only developed her fashion sense but has also shown an interest in dancing. She has been featured in choreographies by Hamilton Evans. Brad, who once saw dance as a part of his future, now takes pleasure in watching his daughter pursue it. Though he hasn’t had the opportunity to dance for a movie, he finds himself dancing a lot in his own life.
Recently, Shiloh debuted a new summer hairdo, rocking a pink buzz cut while out with a friend. Fans loved her new look, commenting on how much she resembles both her parents. With her unique features, Shiloh is often compared to Brad and Angelina, leaving many divided opinions.
Shiloh Jolie-Pitt continues to captivate the world with her individuality and evolving style. As she navigates her path in the celebrity world, her parents continue to support and cherish their extraordinary daughter.
