Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s son Pax, 17, graduates from private LA high school but ‘shy’ teen ditches ceremony
ANGELINA Jolie and Brad Pitt's son Pax has graduated from his private LA high school, The Sun can reveal.
The "shy" 17-year-old chose not to attend the ceremony on June 5 as he didn't want to create a "circus" at the event.
Pax had been taking virtual lessons at the prestigious school until mid March and graduated on Saturday.
The Sun has obtained a "Graduates" pamphlet from the ceremony where Pax's name was listed as "Pax Jolie-Pitt".
An insider told us: "Pax definitely was not at the ceremony. He's shy and it was believed he didn’t want to bring a circus to the event.
"He has a lot of friends, though. The school did distance learning until mid-March."
The Sun has contacted reps for Angelina, 46, and Brad, 57, for comment.
Pax is the second oldest of the actors' six children.
His siblings are Maddox, 19, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 14 and twins Vivienne and Knox, 12.
Last month, Brad was granted joint custody of their children with Angelina, despite the actress' battle to get primary custody.
A source told Page Six: “There was a significant change made in the custody agreements based on an extremely detailed decision made by the judge.
“Brad was just trying to have more time with his kids – and it has been clear that Angie has done everything possible to prevent this.”
The insider added: “This trial lasted for several months and there were a f*** ton of witnesses, experts, therapists and other people who have been with the kids and around them, and the decision was based on this."
Us Weekly previously reported that Maddox appeared to take Angelina's side as he spoke during their lengthy custody battle.
The former golden couple of Hollywood split in 2016 after 12 years together, with the Tomb Raider actress citing “irreconcilable differences” on the divorce papers.
An insider told the outlet: “Maddox has already given testimony as [an] adult in the ongoing custody dispute and it wasn’t very flattering toward Brad.
“He doesn’t use Pitt as his last name on documents that aren’t legal and instead uses Jolie. Maddox wants to legally change his last name to Jolie, which Angelina has said she doesn’t support.”

The split followed an incident on a plane when Brad allegedly lost control of himself and clashed with son Maddox.
Following a review, the FBI and Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family cleared the actor of any wrongdoing.
