So is the story of Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt, whose first images were sold to People and Hello! for $14 million. This made it the biggest sale of a celebrity image in history.
Fame was already knocking on his door before he was born. Of course, this can come in handy if you have famous relatives like Hollywood superstars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Today, Knox Leon is no longer a baby, and the world is gaining a deeper insight into his history, ambitions, and dreams as he moves into adulthood.
Who is Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt, Brad and Angelina’s son?
Besides knowing who his parents are, there is a lot to know about Knox Leon. On the one hand, he has a twin sister, Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt. Their date of birth is known to the minute. Knox and his twin were born on July 12, 2008, he at 6:27 p.m. and Vivienne at 6:28 p.m.
Knox Leon couldn’t have been born in a better country. Two weeks before he was born, his parents traveled to the enchanted city of Nice, France, where they booked and lodged in a hotel by the sea. During those two weeks, the paparazzi waited patiently outside the hospital the announcement of his birth.
Knox’s names are steeped in the history of the family hierarchy. His father, Brad, named him Knox, after his paternal grandfather, while he received the name Leon from his mother’s great-grandfather.
Growing up in the Jolie-Pitt family, the blond boy, like the rest of his siblings, wasn’t as exposed on social media, with their parents wanting to protect them from the harsh media waters. Knox and all of his siblings were homeschooled by their mother. They all took basic courses like math and science. Knox also participates in extracurricular activities such as sports, skateboarding, self-defense classes, and learning foreign languages.
Although Brad and Angelina don’t want their kids to be actors, it looks like Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt and her twin sister may just be following in their footsteps. Both children have made appearances in films. For Knox, it was a minor voice role for KuKu’s character in the 2016 animated film, Kung Fu Panda 3.
However, his interests are not limited to the film industry. Knox Leon learns to fly planes. Thanks to scholarships from his parents and the support of his mother, he learned the rudiments and basic techniques of piloting from the best instructors in the country. His mother revealed that he still struggled with the pedals and a few other more complex aspects of the trade. Time will tell if this is the way to go, but according to FAA regulations, the blonde-haired child Jolie-Pitt is still too young to fly solo.
His family life
Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt and his sister Vivienne are probably the last biological children of their parents. Seven years after they were born, a complication during surgery caused premature menopause for their mother, Jolie. He is very close to his twin and the rest of his family.
