Why now

Maddox Jolie, the adopted son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, has legally removed 'Pitt' from his last name, becoming the second of their children to do so. According to reporting from People.com and other outlets, this legal change reflects the continued separation between the former couple and their evolving family circumstances. The move comes years after the couple's 2016 separation and subsequent custody disputes, with Maddox now asserting his own identity independent of his father's surname. This development highlights how the children in high-profile celebrity families navigate their own paths following parental separations.

What to watch

Maddox's name change joins his sibling Pax in dropping the Pitt surname entirely. As the family continues to establish new dynamics following their parents' divorce proceedings, attention may focus on how this influences other family members' legal decisions. The Jolie-Pitt family has been in the public eye since their adoption of Maddox in 2002, making any significant developments subject to widespread media coverage and public interest.

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
