Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s eldest daughter Shiloh has officially dropped her father’s last name following her 18th birthday.
TMZ reported that Shiloh’s request was granted by a court with no formal hearing or objection from Pitt, and she will now be now known as “Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.”
Shiloh petitioned for the change three days after her birthday on May 27. Several of her siblings had already made efforts to distance themselves from Pitt amid his eight-year divorce battle with Jolie.
