Why Brad Pitt's Skips BAFTA 2020
Etonline.com: Brad Pitt skipped the 2020 EE British Academy Film Awards (also known as the BAFTAs) to be with his 15-year-old daughter, Zahara, as she recovered from surgery, ET has learned.
In February, Pitt's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood co-star, Margot Robbie, read a pre-written acceptance speech on behalf of the actor when he was announced as the winner of the Best Supporting Actor statuette at the annual awards show.
On Monday, a source told ET that the reason for Pitt's BAFTAs absence was that he was supporting Zahara after she underwent an operation. Page Six was first to report that Pitt missed the awards to be with one of his daughters following surgery.
The news comes a day after Pitt's ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, 44, penned an essay for Time, in which she revealed that two of her daughters had undergone surgery.
