Knox Jolie-Pitt Celebrates Muay Thai Victory Ahead of Birthday

Knox Léon Jolie-Pitt showcased his martial arts skills by winning an IKF Point Muay Thai Technical competition before turning 17, with his mother Angelina Jolie and his sister Vivienne cheering him on. Footage revealed him landing punches and kicks during the match, and he was photographed with a gold medal around his neck.

Angelina Jolie attended the event in Los Angeles, keeping a low profile in black attire and sunglasses. She also posed for a photo with one of Knox’s coaches. The following day, Knox celebrated his birthday with Jolie in Los Feliz and visited a local magazine shop, along with her giving him a driving lesson.

Knox appeared relaxed outside his Muay Thai gym, dressed in white shorts, a black T-shirt, and white Crocs. He later wrapped his hands and put on gloves, carrying a red gym bag.

Meanwhile, Brad Pitt was absent from Knox’s tournament amid reports he is eager to reconnect with his children. An insider mentioned Pitt’s hope to see Knox and Vivienne before they turned 17, though it’s unclear if the meeting took place. Knox has maintained his last name Jolie-Pitt, even as Vivienne dropped Pitt from her surname.

On Monday, Knox was seen outside his gym, in good spirits, sporting athletic gear and wrapping his hands for training. His recent victory marked a positive step amidst efforts to rebuild family bonds, with Pitt showing a “glimmer of hope” in reconciling with Knox after previous struggles.
