Shiloh Jolie-Pitt was seen for the first time following news that a court hearing to legally drop ‘Pitt’ from her last name has been delayed.
The 18-year-old daughter of former Hollywood power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stepped out solo in Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon.
Shiloh — whose older brother Pax, 20, was involved in an e-bike accident earlier this week— was dressed in a black hoodie, black jeans and vibrant yellow sneakers.
Her cropped blonde hair was pulled back off her makeup-free face with a brown spring headband.
The teenager had another jacket over her arm and her iPhone in hand as she left a friend’s home in the afternoon.

Earlier this week, Shiloh’s attorney confirmed that a court hearing in her ongoing effort to change her legal last name had been delayed due to a clerical error.
The latest development comes about two months after Shiloh expressed her intent to drop Pitt from her name after turning 18 on May 27.
Peter Levine, who is serving as legal representation for Jolie-Pitt in the matter, told People in a statement Monday, ‘Unfortunately, the court was unable to complete the background check ahead of today’s hearing, so the hearing was rescheduled for August 19.’
Levine explained the logistics of the process, and why Monday’s hearing in Los Angeles Superior Court had been pushed back.
Everyone undergoing a name-change request needs to have a background check conducted by the court clerk, and because of clerical error, Shiloh’s hearing has been continued to a new date,’ Levine told the outlet.
Jolie and Pitt – who separated in 2016 and have been finalizing the terms of their divorce in the eight years since – are also parents to children Maddox, 22, Zahara, 19, Pax, 20, Knox, 15, and Vivienne, 15.
In June, an insider close to Pitt told People that the Oscar-winning actor was ‘aware and upset that Shiloh dropped his last name.’
The insider added, ‘The reminders that he’s lost his children, is of course not easy for Brad. He loves his children and misses them. It’s very sad.’
Shiloh earlier this month published a statement in the Los Angeles Times to declare her intent to change her legal name from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie, in accordance with state law, TMZ reported.
