Brad Pitt was the target of a scathing social media post in which his son called him a "world class a**hole", but it seems the Hollywood actor is hoping to move on from the feud.

Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt slammed Brad in a post shared on Father's Day in 2020. While it was originally shared on a private social media account, the comment was recently made public. Pax accused his dad of making the lives of those closest to him "a constant hell" Now 20, Pax added: "So Happy Father's Day, you f*****g awful human being."

Pax isn't the only one of Brad's children who seems to be feuding with him, with his daughter Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt seemingly snubbing her father as she dropped his last name during her induction ceremony in college. Brad's eldest son Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt is also said to be unwilling to reconnect.

A source close to Brad has now claimed he is hoping his children will join him for mediation sessions. They said a hole has been left in Brad's life by the absence of Pax, Zahara and Maddox.

"Over the last couple of years, he's taken a step back to give them their space and respect their decision for no contact. But as he approaches 60, he feels it's time to mark a new beginning for them all and is desperately hoping there is still a chance to make amends," the source told Closer magazine.

They said Brad will be travelling to Cabo to celebrate his big birthday with his new girlfriend Ines de Ramon and some of their close friends. The actor's younger children Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne, who he has maintained a good relationship with, will join after.

The source claimed Brad has written letters to his children and asked them to join him at the mediation sessions in the new year in the hopes of regaining a connection. Ines is said to have been "instrumental" in helping Brad try and mend his broken relationships.

The Fight Club star "knows they're not going to magically be back to where they were", but the source said he is trying to stay positive. Brad shares three adopted and three biological kids with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie. The couple are continuing to undergo a nasty custody battle after their messy split in September 2016, which initially granted Angelina sole custody of their kids, while Brad only received visitation rights.

In May 2021, he was awarded joint custody but the decision was later overturned. The Maleficent actress won an appeal against it and currently still has sole custody over their kids, while Brad is able to visit his minor children.
