There’s a good reason Angelina Jolie‘s fans rarely see her daughter Shiloh, as the actress revealed just how private the teen prefers to keep her life.
Angelina, 49, appeared on Good Morning America on Thursday, November 21, to promote her new movie, Maria. When Michael Strahan asked if any of her 6 children had caught the acting bug, she responded, “none” of her kids “want to be in front of the camera.”
“They are quite private,” Angelina explained, adding “Shiloh is extremely private,” about her first-born child with ex-husband Brad Pitt. The former couple share three adopted children and three biological children.
“They weren’t born with privacy,” the Wanted actress added. “So, I hope they can have that as they get older.”
Shiloh, 18, hasn’t appeared on a red carpet with her mom in three years. The last time she joined the Oscar winner was for the Los Angeles premiere of MSNBC Films’ Paper & Glue in November 2021.
That event was casual, with Shiloh wearing a black hoodie and jeans with her hair pulled back. However, she blew fans away during her mom’s Eternals promotional tour the month prior, wearing dresses and makeup in public for the first time.
Shiloh went glam on red carpets in Rome, London and Hollywood in October of 2021.
The teen changed up her look by January 2023, when she sported a newly cropped buzzcut, a baggy sweatshirt and no makeup when paparazzi caught up with her during an outing in Los Angeles.
Ever since, Shiloh has rarely been photographed, keeping a low profile. She regularly attends dance classes at the Millennium Dance Complex in Los Angeles. Several videos of her showing off her moves have made their way to Instagram by fellow students or choreographers over the years, although they are often quickly taken down to insure Shiloh’s privacy.
While Shiloh stopped making public appearances with her mom, her younger brother, Knox, seemed to break his own privacy wishes to accompany Angelina to the Governor’s Ball on November 17. It was his first public appearance in three years, last joining Angelina at the Eternals London premiere on October 27, 2021.
Knox, 16, made for a very dapper date, wearing a tuxedo in public for the first time as he smiled and posed along with his mom.
During her GMA interview, Angelina gushed about being a mom, saying of motherhood, “It’s my happiness. You can take everything else away from me. Nothing else matters.”
The Salt star’s two oldest sons, Maddox and Pax, started working behind the scenes on her movies, starting with her 2017 directorial effort, First They Killed My Father.
The brothers worked on Maria in the assistant directing department. Angelina spoke of how much Maddox, 23, and Pax, 20, helped calm her nerves when she had to sing life for the first time while shooting the film about legendary opera singer Maria Callas.
“I was terribly nervous. I spent almost seven months training,” Angelina explained during a press call at the Venice Film Festival on August 29. “My first time singing, I remember being so nervous. My sons were there and they helped to block the door [so] that nobody else was coming in, and I was shaky.”
“And [director Pablo Larraín], in his decency, started me in a small room and ended me in La Scala,” she added. “So, he gave me time to grow. I was frightened to live up to [Callas].”
