Even though Jon Voight was not at Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s wedding, he still had kind words to say about the ceremony. “It sounds like it was a wonderful wedding,” Voight shared to E! News a few days after the event. “It must have been very beautiful with the kids participating. I know it was during Emmy weeks and they were able to do it very quietly. I’m very happy for them.” And while the publication noted that Voight was busy with various Emmy-related promo events, his professional commitments weren’t the only thing that kept him out of the wedding.
According to TMZ, Jolie and Pitt didn’t extend an invitation his way. In fact, Voight found out about the wedding at the same time the public did, when news broke online. And while Voight did refrain from publicly lashing out at his daughter and her new husband, he really did want to attend. Two years earlier, Voight spoke to Entertainment Tonight and supported Jolie and Pitt’s engagement. “Listen, they have six kids, Whatever they do that makes them happy and keeps the kids happy, I’m all for it,” Voight said. “Listen, if they give me a call and say we want you at a wedding…” he added. But it seems Voight never got that call.
