Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s son steps out in a classic tuxedo, marking a rare return to the spotlight alongside his mother.
Knox Jolie-Pitt, the 16-year-old son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, made a rare appearance on the red carpet at the prestigious Governors Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, November 17. This marked his first public outing in three years, with his last red-carpet appearance taking place in October 2021 at the premiere of Eternals.
The 16-year-old looked every bit the Hollywood heir in a classic black tuxedo with a bow tie, a choice that evoked memories of his father’s own stylish red carpet looks. Knox joined his mother, actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie, who dazzled in a shimmering gold halter-neck gown adorned with a delicate cream lace overlay from Los Angeles-based luxury vintage boutique, The Kit Vintage. The pair walked the carpet arm-in-arm, with Jolie radiating glamour and grace.
The Governors Awards, renowned for celebrating the achievements of the film industry, brought together a host of A-list stars, including Jennifer Lawrence, who stunned in a chocolate brown custom Bottega Veneta gown, and Nicole Kidman, who opted for a sleek black Celine gown. Other notable attendees included Demi Moore, whose striking Givenchy gown and diamond jewellery made a statement of their own.
For Knox, this marked only his second public appearance, following his 2021 debut at the Eternals premiere. His rare reemergence on the red carpet sparked interest from fans and media, marking a new chapter in the young star’s life as he continues to grow up in the public eye, away from the intense scrutiny that has followed his famous parents for years.
Jolie and Pitt, who divorced in 2016 after a decade-long relationship, have always prioritized their children’s privacy. While their six children, including adopted siblings Maddox, Zahara, and Pax, have occasionally appeared in public with their famous parents, appearances like this are few and far between. However, it seems that with Knox’s growing confidence, he may make more public appearances in the future.
