Angelina Jolie has said she is both amazed and proud at how well new son Pax is fitting into the Jolie-Pitt family.

She told the Mirror recently: “Pax is a great kid. When we first met him we thought he was really shy but after two days at home we discovered he is the loudest member of the family.” We don’t know if it’s because he has freedom he’s never had before, but he’s doing great.”

“I’m really proud of Pax. It’s obvious he is used to stronger discipline, so it’s hard to change, but we are learning and he’s doing very well.”

“He is learning English and already speaks a little bit and the funniest thing was on my birthday on Monday to hear him saying ‘Happy Birthday, Mommy’ in the loudest, greatest, clearest voice. The kids were all screaming and singing. It was so much fun.”

She added that Pax and eldest son Maddox are already very close: “Pax and Maddox have really connected because they’re closer in age and are brothers so they have moments when they bond together against everybody else in the family.”

“They are a really tough team and then they have moments when they bug each other. It’s quite normal and it’s nice. It’s never quiet in our house.”
