An unidentified tattler told the magazine:
“Brad is accusing Angie of brainwashing their sons into thinking he’s a terrible human being. He heard through the grapevine that she’s throwing Maddox a big 21st birthday party in Europe with his siblings and friends. It’s a real dagger in the heart for Brad that Maddox didn’t extend an olive branch and invite him even if Angelina doesn’t want him there.”
The same tipster claimed Brad Pitt is clinging to the old memories for now instead of making new ones.
It added:
“Brad often feels nostalgic about the amazing times he had with Maddox. He had really hoped to repair their relationship.”
Brad Pitt has yet to comment on the claims that Maddox did not respond to his act of reconciliation during the latter’s 21st birthday. So, devoted followers of Angelina Jolie’s son should take all these unverified claims with a huge grain of salt until everything is proven true and correct.
