Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt to adopt fifth child later this year?

Despite rumours of tensions in their relationship, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are reportedly planning to adopt another child later in the year.

The couple, who already have four children, are said to be looking for child to adopt from Ethopia - where daughter Zahara was born in 2005.

A source told the Daily Mail: “Brad and Angie have made no secret of the fact that they are keen to extend their family. But they’ve always been very careful to ensure that they leave enough time between kids so that that each child fully integrates into the family and feels truly settled.”

“Angie in particular feels very strongly that while [youngest daughter] Shiloh will grow up seeing the family resemblance between herself and her biological parents, and Maddox and Pax will feel a connection through their birthplaces, Zahara has no such close-knit bond.”

“They hope that by finding an Ethiopian brother or sister - preferably sister - for her, it will help Zahara feel more comfortable and happy in her own skin.”

“Both Brad and Angelina are incredibly excited about the latest addition to the Jolie-Pitts and if anything will bring them closer together, then this is it.”

After the birth of Shiloh last year, Angelina spoke about wanting to balance the family. The most recent addition to their family, son Pax, was adopted from Vietnam in March.
