A recent Presidential dinner was hosted by President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden for South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and First Lady Kim Keon Hee.
Actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie attended the elite event with her eldest son, Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt.
Jolie-Pitt’s attendance was a rare occurrence because the 21-year-old is hardly ever seen out and about.
The famous son of Brad Pitt and Jolie spends most of his time busying himself with his studies in South Korea but flew down to Washington, DC, for the special occasion.
The public has been left shocked by the photos captured of the mom and her son. Many have left comments about how strange the duo looks together, specifically honing in on Jolie-Pitt’s appearance.
Negative comments about how her son looked standing next to his mother were the center of attention on social media following the event.
Jolie And Her Eldest Son Look Like A “Bride and Groom”
The lavish presidential state dinner in honor of South Korea happened on Wednesday, April 26. Of the extensive 200-guest list, Jolie and her son were two, and the mother-son duo dressed to impress.
The “Tomb Raider: Lara Croft” star stunned in a cream-colored gown adorned with a beautiful matching blazer placed atop her shoulders. She finished off her delicate look by accessorizing with glamorous gold earrings, a necklace, and a clutch to match. Her son Jolie-Pitt wore an elegant black suit covered by a long fancy-looking black coat and paired his look with shiny black dress shoes.
Jolie-Pitt looked very grown-up in his smart suit as he popped his collar for a picture snapped by the media in attendance. He may have looked too grown for the public’s liking as an influx of concerning comments began popping up on social media after photographs were released.
Several commentators took to Instagram to comment negatively on how the mother and son showed up to the event. One comment, in particular, highlighted that Jolie’s son looked older than he is, stating overtly that the mother and son looked as though they were a “bride and groom” and looked “kinda weird.”:
Many others commented on his supposedly looking poor, sickly, and worn down. At the same time, another person wondered if he was “wearing a wig” because his hairline has appeared to look very thin in other older pictures of the 21-year-old. Another viewer added that Jolie’s son “needs a haircut”:
In spite of the influx of adverse reactions toward Jolie’s son, a few fans peppered the post’s comment section with a few friendly words. Two fans pointed out how handsome Jolie-Pitt has gotten as he has aged:
Despite the unwarranted backlash from a few spectators about Jolie and her eldest son’s recent sighting, Jolie remains proud of her son and all he has accomplished at 21.
