00:00Like father, like daughter. Brad Pitt and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt might never be seen out and about
00:05together, but their relationship and similarities might surprise you. A-list actors Brad Pitt and
00:10Angelina Jolie welcomed their first biological child, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, on May 27, 2006.
00:16In a statement to People magazine, the proud parents had this to share about the birth of
00:20their new baby girl.
00:22We would like to deeply thank the staff of the Cottage MediClinic Hospital for all their
00:26kindness and commitment in ensuring the successful birth of our daughter.
00:29However, as the old adage goes, time flies. Shiloh is nearly all grown up,
00:34and it appears her famous father has some serious feelings about that.
00:37Shortly after a video of herself and two friends dancing to Doja Cat's
00:41Vegas went viral, Brad got a tad emotional on the red carpet, gushing to ET,
00:46"...brings a tear to the eye."
00:47"...Come on!"
00:49"...Yeah, very beautiful."
00:50But aside from Brad's total admiration for his teenage daughter,
00:54what is their father-daughter relationship really like? Let's admit it,
00:57times have been tough for the Jolie-Pitt kids since Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie parted ways
01:02in 2016. But the relationship Pitt shares with his daughter Shiloh has continued to
01:06flourish despite the hardships. A source told Life & Style in July 2022,
01:11Despite the ongoing custody battle between Brad and Angelina, he does spend time with the kids,
01:16but in a private setting. He prefers it that way and is particularly close to Shiloh. The pair have
01:21a loving, fun, and authentic relationship and are cut from the same cloth. And while it's no secret
01:26that the father-daughter duo looks alike, the source claims they share many of the same
01:30personality traits, too, telling Life & Style,
01:33"...they're very compassionate and loving. They're both very open,
01:36they enjoy meeting new people."
01:37Shiloh seems to have somehow picked up Brad's Midwestern demeanor. But that's not all.
01:42According to the source, Brad and Shiloh enjoy many of the same hobbies,
01:45including playing music, watching movies, and even bonding over their mutual love of art.
01:50A Life & Style insider said,
01:52"...Brad never puts pressure on Shiloh and encourages her to pursue her dreams.
01:55She feels comfortable talking to her dad about anything."
01:58But that doesn't mean Papa Bear Pitt isn't protective. On the contrary, actually.
02:02As the source explained to Us Weekly,
02:04"...Brad is very big on keeping his time with the kids extremely private.
02:08He shields them from scrutiny and is extremely protective that way."
02:11But don't just take our word for it. Shortly after Shiloh's dancing video went viral in June 2022,
02:16it was quickly blurred out with a note below in the comments from Hamilton Evans,
02:20the publisher of the video on YouTube, that read,
02:23"...Unfortunately, Shiloh's group, as requested by her family and lawyers,
02:27has been blurred out temporarily. This is to respect her privacy. Her focus is to train
02:31hard and improve while in a safe and controlled environment. Please respect the decision that
02:36has been made."
02:37As Shiloh's love for dance intensified and her dance routines went viral,
02:41both Brad and his ex, Angelina Jolie, were very supportive of their daughter,
02:45with a source telling Us Weekly in June 2022,
02:48"...they'd have no issue if she wants to turn pro, but they're not pushing it on her by any means."
02:52Shiloh's love of dance even began to have an impact on her dad's life,
02:55as he told W Magazine on January 2023,
02:59"...dance has become a part of my future, or my present."
03:03Perhaps a collaboration is in the future for the father-daughter pair. Following the contentious
03:07split of Pitt and Jolie, Shiloh chose to take the high road in regards to her father's past
03:11transgressions. An insider told InTouch that Shiloh had forgiven her dad for his past behavior,
03:16which involved issues with alcohol, saying,
03:19"...she knows Brad's sober now and doing his best."
03:21Perhaps part of the reason that the youngster decided to excuse her dad for not always being
03:25around in the past was that the father-daughter duo had grown closer, and reportedly, quote,
03:30"...get along really well now."
03:31The pair would be spending even more time together,
03:34as Shiloh was reportedly attached to a movie with her dad.
