Don't expect Maddox Jolie-Pitt to be spending any quality "father-son" time with Brad Pitt any time soon! Just a few days before the 18-year-old is set to head off to college, a source revealed that he doesn't really "doesn’t really see himself" as the actor's son.

While many may think the Jolie-Pitt household took a turn for the worst when Brad, 55, and Angelina Jolie filed for divorce in September 2016, things apparently haven't been good between the actor and Maddox, 18, for quite a bit of time.

According to Us Weekly, the Once Upon a Time In Hollywood star and his eldest son are not close. Back in 2016, Brad and Maddox reportedly got into an altercation — which ultimately led to Angelina, 44, filing for divorce.

“Maddox doesn’t really see himself as Brad’s son," an insider told the publication. Another source explained the 18-year-old is more of a mama's boy. "He is very close with Angie," they said.
