Zahara Graduates Spelman With Psychology Degree, Dropping Pitt Surname
9 articles · Updated · INQUIRER USA & CANADA · May 24
Spelman College announced Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter as “Zahara Marley Jolie” at graduation, marking her completion of a bachelor’s degree in psychology.
The surname change fits a pattern: Zahara used “Zahara Marley Jolie” publicly during her Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority initiation in November 2023 and at later appearances.
At an April 26 Pearls of Purpose Foundation mother-daughter luncheon, Zahara described a “kindred connection” with Angelina Jolie and said her mother taught kindness, service and personal growth.
Zahara also reflected on being adopted at 6 months old and credited her family’s support as part of the values she said shaped her.
With a new psychology degree, how will Zahara Jolie's unique life experience influence her chosen career path?
As another child publicly drops the 'Pitt' surname, what does this trend reveal about the family's private healing process?
