Angelina Jolie proudly backs son Knox at Muay Thai bout while Brad Pitt remains out of the birthday picture
made a striking appearance over the weekend as she stood proudly ringside to cheer on her son, Knox Jolie-Pitt, during his Muay Thai competition. The event coincided with Knox's 17th birthday, which he shares with his twin sister Vivienne.
While the teenager clinched a win in the ring, one figure was notably absent from the celebration, his father,
Brad Pitt
, who continues to grapple with strained ties to his children despite reported efforts to reconnect.
Knox Jolie-Pitt shines in the ring with his mom Angelina Jolie's support
Knox Jolie-Pitt's birthday celebration was anything but traditional. Rather than a lavish party, he stepped into the ring for the IKF Point Muay Thai Technical competition — and came out victorious. Dressed in black shorts and a matching tee, Knox smiled for photos with his coaches, his white mouth guard still in place and a red medal proudly hanging around his neck.
By his side throughout was Angelina Jolie, who turned heads in a sleek all-black outfit and signature sunglasses. 'It was just better to control it in a safe place, in a safe way,' Jolie once said in a prior interview with PEOPLE, referring to the lengths she's gone to protect her children from the public eye.
As for Brad Pitt, his absence didn't go unnoticed. Reports surfaced ahead of the birthday weekend claiming the Fight Club star was 'desperate' to reconnect with the twins.

However, no public acknowledgment or appearance was made, and Knox celebrated the day entirely in the company of his mother.
The distance between Pitt and his children continues to extend. Three of the kids — Zahara, Vivienne, and Shiloh — have dropped 'Pitt' from their last names, with Shiloh filing legally upon turning 18. Their son Pax previously went as far as calling Brad a 'world-class a**hole' in a now-infamous 2020 Father's Day post, further painting a fractured family portrait.
The bitterness between Jolie and Pitt has also extended to legal disputes. Their prolonged fight over Château Miraval, the $64 million French estate they once co-owned, remains unresolved. Pitt has accused Jolie of selling her stake without mutual agreement, a move he claims breached their deal. He's now seeking access to Jolie's private messages to support his case.
Despite all the legal and emotional turmoil, Jolie has found strength in her children. While working on the film Maria, she shared how sons Maddox and Pax comforted her during emotional moments. 'They've seen me go through a lot of things,' she told the BBC, 'but then we would hug or they would bring me cups of tea.'

For now, Jolie remains the anchor in her children's lives. And for Knox, his win meant a memorable 17th birthday with his mother by his side.

Pro-Palestinians programmed, voted against Trump: Watch Kanye West's rant
Kanye 'Ye' West is no stranger to controversy, and the American rapper seems to have waded into another one, saying that anyone who brings up Palestine was likely 'programmed' and were the same people who voted against Donald Trump. Kanye has also been facing flak on the work front, after he was late to the Shanghai show.(AP) A video of Kanye has been circulating online. HT has not independently verified the authenticity of this video. What's Kanye saying? Kanye, in the expletive-laden video, can be heard saying, 'You nig** don't know about Palestine, you don't give a f*** about it. The media made you give a f*** about it, and it's shit that you just put up on your motherf***in timeline.' This rant from Kanye comes after his many anti-Semitic posts, and glorification of Hitler on social media. On the work front Kanye has been facing flak on the work front, after he was late to the Shanghai show, with many fans demanding refunds. 'Was hard to get tix for him in Shanghai but got it. Was hyped af. Couldn't even sleep night before. But. Worst concert I've ever been to. @kanyewest u can be better,' one commented after the rapper was almost 40 minutes late after what was billed as his grand return to China after 17 years. 'Mostly lip synching. His microphone must have been up less than 20 per cent of the time,' another said, adding, 'For the encore, he disappeared for over 20 minutes at one point as tracks like Wolves just played out with him nowhere in sight. I could have just played your music at home man. Came to see u perform????' Troubles on the personal front Ye is facing troubles on the personal front as well, with an amended lawsuit from former assistant Lauren Pisciotta, accusing him of sexual assault, battery, stalking and sex trafficking. West's spokesperson, meanwhile, has denied these allegations.
