Brad Pitt is “missing” his kids this holiday season, a source tells Page Six exclusively.

The Oscar winner, who turns 61 on December 18, feels Christmas “won’t be the same” if he doesn’t get to spend some time with his children.

“Brad misses his children and wants a closer relationship with them, especially with the holidays and his birthday this month,” the insider says.

Pitt and his ex-wife Angelina Jolie, whom he divorced in 2019, have six children together: Maddox (23), Pax (21), Zahara (19), Shiloh (18) and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne .

Page Six previously reported that Pitt felt “hurt” when Shiloh officially gave up her father’s last name after she made the legal request on her 18th birthday in May.

“They used to have a good relationship, but that’s in the past and it’s breaking his heart,” a source told Us at the time. “Brad feels that Angelina has turned his children against him.”

The insider added: “He feels like Angelina knows exactly what she’s doing.”

However, the emotions didn’t stop there. Just last month, an insider told Us that Pitt felt Jolie, 49, intentionally walked the red carpet with her son Knox at the 2024 Governors Awards “to squeeze him.”

A source told Page Six at the time: “Brad finds it a bit coincidental that a judge signed off on (Château) Miraval’s trial just days before Knox joined Angelina at the Governors Awards.”

However, the insider noted that the “Fight Club” star is “grateful to have an amazing partner in his 31-year-old girlfriend Ines de Ramon.”

Ramon, who Pitt has been dating since 2022, “is supportive and Brad is excited to ring in the new year with her.”

A representative for Pitt did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
