After being involved in a motorcycle accident that came dangerously close to taking his life, Pax is in a critical situation; however, his A-list mother, Angelina Jolie, and his loving siblings are working around the clock to offer care and comfort for him.
“They’re all so happy to have him home, and they’re trying to stay optimistic, but it’s been pretty terrifying to see him in this condition,” an unnamed source told In Touch Weekly, adding that Pax’s entire family is praying he makes a full recovery.
Pax was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident, and witnesses stated that he was experiencing hip pain and suffered a head injury before being rushed by paramedics to a local hospital. The incident occurred on July 29, and it was reported that the 20-year-old was involved in a collision with the back of a car at an intersection in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles.
In addition, it was alleged that an eyewitness by the name of Lola Cavalli witnessed Pax's lips "filled with blood" after the terrifying event.
Pax's family members are "all staying home with him now that he's out of the hospital and spending as much time with him as they can," according to a source that was cited by In Touch Weekly. Nevertheless, it appears that Pax has a long path ahead of him as well.
“He needs a ton of sleep while he recovers, but when he’s awake the whole family is with him, watching movies with him and just keeping him company and making sure he has all his favorite foods,” the anonymous insider told the entertainment news outlet.
“He has friends coming to see him, but Angelina’s making sure he doesn’t overdo it and follows the doctor’s advice to rest. He’s also got all kinds of physiotherapy and hospital appointments to take care of. His recovery isn’t going to happen overnight, but they’re all committed to helping him get better one day at a time and rallying around him like the tight-knit family they always are,” the informant furthered.
In spite of everything, there is one person who appears to be absent from the family's suffering: Brad Pitt. "Maleficent" star, who is 49 years old, has "managed to turn them against him so much that he's practically out of the picture," according to a separate tipster who communicated with In Touch earlier this month. The mole stated that Brad, who is 60 years old, would "love to be there more for Pax, and all the kids."
An argumentative ex-couple is reportedly lashing out at one other rather than coming together to care for their injured son, the spy claimed.
“From Brad’s perspective, it’s absurd for her to try to put any sort of blame on him. She’s the one who’s there day to day, he’s barely around because she’s totally shut him out and poisoned the kids against him,” the tattler shared.
“It’s a disaster, and the whole family is in a state of shock. It’s such a shame that even now these two are finding a way to use this against each other. Anything that goes wrong, they automatically blame each other,” it continued.
In the years following their divorce in 2016, the couple has been embroiled in a contentious legal battle. Recently, Business Times reported their daughter Shiloh, who is now 18 years old, was granted permission to change her name and drop her father's surname.
