BRAD TELLS SHILOH 'I WANT TO BE A BETTER DAD'

Their fractured relationship is something the actor wants to make a thing of the past

When Shiloh Jolie-Pitt was introduced to the world in 2006, she drew Hollywood's collective gasp.

No one could have imagined just how much she'd look like her papa Brad Pitt - or how besotted he'd be with his first biological child.

As little Shiloh grew, she remained the spitting image of Brad, and even began dressing like him, in suits and khaki.

"Brad thought it was adorable, and all in good fun," a source reveals. "He loved having a mini-me - but he didn't agree with Angelina [Jolie, his now ex-wife] that she should be allowed to dress like a boy all the time. There were disagreements about it."

Soon after Shiloh's 10th birthday, her whole world came crashing down when her mum abruptly announced she was divorcing Brad, catapulting the couple's six children into a messy custody battle that continues today.
