Brad Pitt Turns to Jon Voight in Emotional Bid to ‘Win Back His Kids’

Brad Pitt is reportedly reaching out to an unlikely ally in his long-running feud with ex-wife Angelina Jolie — her estranged father, Jon Voight.

Sources tell RadarOnline.com that Pitt is desperate to reconnect with his children, and he’s now leaning on Voight, 86, in hopes the Hollywood veteran can help mend the deep family rift.

“Brad’s grasping at straws at this point,” one insider claimed. “He’s asking Jon to step in to make peace — or at least bring some stability to a really fractured situation.”

Pitt and Voight have stayed friendly over the years, even as Jolie remained mostly estranged from her father. The two men bonded during Pitt’s messy divorce from Jolie, and now Pitt is allegedly hoping that bond can be used to open the door to reconciliation with his kids.

Voight, a vocal Trump supporter, has been largely shut out by Jolie since her split from Pitt in 2016. “Poor Jon sees nothing of the extended family now either, and now that he’s in his 80s, time’s running out,” the source added. “He’s been cut off because of his political beliefs — Angelina wants nothing to do with him.”

Still, Voight is reportedly more than willing to help. “They put their heads together to figure out how to fix things,” said the insider. “Jon loves those kids deeply. He has photos of them in his wallet. He’d do anything to see them happy.”

Pitt, who legally still has visitation rights, has reportedly grown distant from his older children — Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, and Zahara, 19 — who are said to be firmly in Jolie’s corner.

“What good are visitation rights if none of the kids want to see him?” the source asked. “They’ve just shut him out completely.”

According to the insider, Voight is willing to reach out to Jolie on Pitt’s behalf, but expectations are low. “He’ll do it for Brad, but he’s not holding his breath.”

“At the end of the day, it’s up to the kids,” the source said. “If Angie encouraged them to reconnect with Brad and Jon, it could be healing for everyone. But right now, Brad’s just hoping for any chance he can get.”
