Sources claim Jolie’s lavish spending on her children may impact their independence
Angelina Jolie’s devotion to her six children has long been central to her public image, but sources now suggest that her generous approach to parenting may be drawing quiet concern behind the scenes.
According to insiders, Jolie continues to spare no expense when it comes to Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne, even as most of them have entered adulthood. From luxury travel to high-end shopping, the children are said to enjoy an exceptionally privileged lifestyle, with few limits placed on spending.
The Oscar-winning actress, who has primarily raised her children on her own since her 2016 split from Brad Pitt, is reportedly determined to ensure they never experience deprivation. Those close to the situation say her parenting style may be shaped by her own childhood, which was marked by family instability and a strained relationship with her father, Jon Voight.
In a recent interview, Jolie revealed that one of her sons now lives in her long-owned New York apartment, while she stays in hotels when visiting the city. The anecdote offered a glimpse into how deeply she prioritizes her children’s comfort, often at her own expense.
However, some observers worry that such extensive financial support could complicate the children’s transition into independence. As they establish careers and personal identities, constant access to wealth and luxury may make it harder to develop self-reliance, sources suggest.
Despite the reportedly high costs of her ongoing divorce from Pitt, Jolie is believed to maintain substantial personal wealth. Still, insiders claim Pitt would be uncomfortable with the scale of spending on the children, though decisions regarding their upbringing remain firmly in Jolie’s hands.
While Jolie’s commitment to providing for her family is rarely questioned, the long-term effects of her indulgent approach continue to prompt discussion as her children step fully into adulthood.
