Maddox began college at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea in August 2019. Since his time away at school, he has mostly remained out of the public eye, save for a few appearances with his famous mother. Angelina previously said that her son does not want to be in the entertainment industry, so his decision to keep a lower profile is no surprise.
