Brad Pitt spotted for first time since son Pax's explosive Father's Day rant resurfaces
Brad Pitt was spotted out and about in Los Angeles on Tuesday following the headlines about his son’s explosive Father’s Day comments.
In photos obtained by Page Six, the “Bullet Train” star rocked a beige bucket hat as he exited his black Porsche.
Pitt, 59, sported a matching beige jacket and pants, pairing the look with white sneakers.
The actor appeared to be in high spirits despite news breaking that his son Pax Jolie-Pitt had previously called him a “world class a–hole” in a 2020 Father’s Day Instagram post.
“Happy Father’s Day to this world class a–hole!! You time and time again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person,” Pax wrote, per the Daily Mail.
“You have no consideration or empathy toward your 4 youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence,” the now-19-year-old reportedly added.
In addition to Pax, Pitt shares Maddox, 22, Zahara, 18, Shiloh, 17, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 15, with ex-wife Angelina Jolie.
A source close to the actor exclusively told Page Six this week that the Oscar winner had “no reaction” to his son’s resurfaced message making headlines.

“This is just unfortunate that people would keep trying to bring kids into things,” the insider said.
“It’s been a long seven years and it’s unfortunate when people unnecessarily raise issues from so far in the past … and don’t take into consideration the impact it has on the whole family.”
Pax’s anger-fueled 2020 rant came four years after the actor was accused of abusing Jolie and two of their children aboard a private jet.
At the time, Pitt was accused of being “verbally abusive and physical with his children” while “wasted” on the aircraft. He has denied the allegations.
Soon after the incident, the “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” actress pulled the plug on their marriage, filing for divorce and seeking full custody of their children.
FBI investigated the claims but chose not to pursue criminal charges.
Pitt, 59, has not been seen with his children since his contentious divorce with Jolie, 48.
Last weekend, their daughter Zahara seemingly hinted that she wasn’t on good terms with her father during her Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority induction at Spelman College.
The college student introduced herself as “Zahara Marley Jolie,” leaving off “Pitt” from her name.
