Angelina Jolie‘s estranged father, Jon Voight, is calling his former son-in-law, Brad Pitt, out over his ongoing battle with his daughter. The former celebrity spouses continue in a nearly eight-year-long divorce battle, and Angie’s dad is stepping in, hoping to put an end to the ‘nonsense.’ In a bizarre turn of events, actor Jon Voight publicly offered Brad Pitt some unsolicited advice regarding his divorce from his daughter Angelina Jolie and his grandchildren. The strange thing is that Angelina and her father are estranged, so this power move is solely on the 85-year-old actor.
Despite Angelina Jolie’s warnings to her father to stop meddling in her life and speaking publicly about her or her children, her old dad is at it again. This interference will likely send Angelina into another fit of rage. Last month, the father and daughter fell out again following a brief reconciliation after Voight publicly shamed his daughter’s political views. Weeks later, Jon openly calls out Brad and Angie over the ongoing divorce battle. But this time, he claims he is speaking out in the best interest of his grandchildren.
Jon Voight Lays A Guilt Trip On Brad Pitt
Jon Voight spoke with Fox Digital News, admitting that he wished the pair could ‘find a way to make peace.’ He reveals that he doesn’t ‘talk to his grandchildren as much as [he’d] like.’ But that doesn’t stop him from being concerned about their well-being.
“You know, I think the kids need some stability. I love the kids, and I love my daughter. And I want Brad to step up to do, you know, what he has to do. End this nonsense.”
Voight strongly believes Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie should end their feud, if not for themselves, then for the children. One of the couple’s biggest disagreements revolves around their winery, Chateau Miraval.
Insiders close to Pitt told Page Six that the famed Chateau Miraval suit protects Pitt’s children. They said, “It’s important that people realize that Brad’s motivation is to ensure that his kids can maximize the benefit of this asset. Once it was sold, that’s no longer the case, and their inheritance significantly decreased.”
The source reveals that this is a significant concern for Brad. For now, Angelina Joli and Brad continue to argue about the matter. However, news rumors suggest they may be easing up on their fighting at least a little following their son Pax’s recent bike accident.
Until something changes, the estranged exes remain locked in their ongoing battle despite Angelina’s dad’s attempt to intervene. However, based on the father and daughter’s turbulent history, Jon may want to rethink publicly sharing his opinion about his daughter’s private affairs if he hopes to spend more time with his grandchildren.
