Angelina Jolie is reportedly finding it hard to parent her kids alone. A source exclusively revealed to RadarOnline that the actor is stressed from parenting alone after she settled her divorce with ex-husband, Brad Pitt. According to the insider, she is “struggling to keep her kids in line” amid news about her son Pax’s controversial Chateau Marmont outing and daughter Shiloh dropping “Pitt” from her last name.
Angelina Jolie always depended on Maddox for keeping kids in line, says ‘source’
Mom-of-six Angelina Jolie is reportedly still wrapping her head around parenting solo, especially with her kids Pax and Shiloh. According to RadarOnline’s exclusive report, the actor has been leaning on her eldest son, Maddox, to help with the children. However, with him allegedly hardly around, the source claimed that her role as a mother is stressing her out.
Last month, photos captured Pax, 21, leaving Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles along with his friends. He seemingly looked drunk, stumbling while leaning on his pals for support. This incident comes after he reportedly suffered two consecutive e-bike accidents last year. However, for Jolie, this incident is nothing but “a case of Pax experimenting and pushing boundaries,” according to the insider.
Shiloh, 19, for her part, is also allegedly doing her bit in “stressing” the actor out. The source claimed that the two-time Academy Award winner is giving her daughter the “freedom” and is placing trust in the teenager. However, they also claimed that Shiloh is “at the stage where she’s rebelling, and that’s worrisome.” According to the outlet’s report, she has been spending her time with the Hollywood crowd.
Jolie is already having a hard time parenting her kids, and the frequent absence of Maddox is only making matters worse. The insider claimed that the 23-year-old has been his mom’s support. However, his travels result in him being away from the family often. The actor reportedly depends on him “to keep the younger kids in line.”
The source said, “He (Maddox) was very much the man of the house, who stepped up massively when she and Pitt broke up — even though he was only 15 at the time.” According to the insider, despite being a “hands-on” and “protective” mother, Jolie is showing signs of stress from parenting alone. The actor has to reportedly “fend for herself” as she doesn’t trust anyone except her eldest son with family issues.
