Academy Award-winning actress Angelina Jolie, best known for films like ‘Maleficent,’ ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith,’ and ‘Girl, Interrupted,’ was one proud mother over the weekend as she celebrated her daughter Zahara Jolie’s graduation from Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. Joining her for the milestone occasion were her older sons, Pax Jolie-Pitt, 22, and Maddox Jolie-Pitt, 24, as well as 17-year-old Knox Jolie-Pitt, who drew significant attention for his striking resemblance to his father, Brad Pitt. Brad was not present at the event.The Daily Mail caught up with the family and snagged several exclusive photos of Knox, who sported frosted tips and a faint mustache, looking remarkably like a young Pitt. The photos quickly made rounds online, with fans noting just how closely Knox resembles his father in his younger years. The frosted tips in particular drew comparisons to a memorable era of Pitt’s look, and the resemblance was hard to ignore.
Angelina Jolie plans to leave the United States when Knox turns 18
The graduation comes at a significant moment for the Jolie family, as Knox and his twin sister Vivienne are set to turn 18 in July 2026. According to a 2024 interview Jolie gave to The Hollywood Reporter, she has been waiting for that milestone to make a major life change.“I am here because I have to be here from a divorce, but as soon as they’re 18, I’ll be able to leave,” she said. “When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety. I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be… that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here. I’ll spend a lot of time in Cambodia.I’ll spend time visiting my family members wherever they may be in the world.”Her Los Angeles home is already on the market for just under $30 million, signalling that the move is well underway in its planning.
Zahara’s touching speech ahead of her graduation
Ahead of her graduation, Zahara took the stage at a mother-daughter brunch for the Pearls of Purpose Foundation on Sunday, April 26, in Atlanta, where she was featured as the special guest. In her speech, she opened up about her relationship with her mother as Jolie stood beside her.“When asked to speak with you all today on the value of mother-daughter relationships, it felt challenging to find the words,” Zahara began, according to a video shared on Instagram. “Not challenging because I don’t value it, but because my mom and I have a unique, almost kindred, relationship that can be hard to put into words.”It was a touching moment that capped off what was clearly a very special weekend for the Jolie family.
