Zahara's Journey, Family Ties, and Humanitarian Impact

Zahara is one of the six children shared by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The couple, who married in 2014 and divorced in 2016, adopted Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005. Jolie has previously spoken about Zahara’s biological mother in a 2009 interview with journalist Ann Curry, saying, “[Zahara's] mother died of Aids and so, they wouldn't have had any funds to send her to school.”

In recent years, Zahara has been seen closely supporting her mother. In 2023, during her induction into the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority at Spelman College, she notably dropped ‘Pitt’ from her name. This move was widely seen as a gesture of loyalty to Jolie amid the family's high-profile divorce.

Zahara often joins her mother at public events. In March, the two attended the Women in Training Inc.’s Annual Mother-Daughter Brunch.

Despite a challenging start in life, Zahara has inspired significant humanitarian work through the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. The foundation launched the Zahara Programme in 2009 to address drug-resistant tuberculosis in Ethiopia. The family also supports the Zahara Centre, located outside Addis Ababa, which extends the work of the Maddox Chivan Children’s Centre in Cambodia.

Zahara’s Foray into Acting

Though Angelina Jolie has stated that her children aren’t pursuing acting careers, Zahara has participated in a few projects. She voiced a panda in Kung Fu Panda 3 and had an uncredited role in Maleficent, alongside her brother Pax.
