Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are reportedly on the verge of adopting yet another child, this time another young girl from Ethiopia.

The couple already have three biological children (Shiloh, two, six-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne) and three adopted children (Cambodian Maddox, seven, Pax, five, from Vietnam and four-year-old Ethiopian girl Zahara) but are planning to jet to Africa before the end of January to complete paperwork on the new addition to their family.

A source revealed: “Brad and Angelina have seen pictures of a two-year-old girl they’d love to adopt. If everything goes to plan, Angelina will file papers in person in the capital city of Addis Ababa in the New Year and they will pick up their new daughter two days later.”

Ethiopian officials have confirmed they are expecting the family this month as they are planning to visit the AIDS/HIV clinic they founded after adopting Zahara.

Brad and Ange are said to be keen on extending their brood while their other children are still young.

An insider explained: “Angelina gets a kick from saving kids and giving them this amazing life they would have never had otherwise.

“Yes they might be adding to their family fast but they want all their kids to be roughly the same age so they do the nanny stage and get it over and done with.

“Another kid in the house will make no difference to the noise and chaos they already have.”
