Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are said to be adopting a Syrian orphan boy, Moussa. The couple already have six children, three of whom are adopted from different parts of the world.
If reports are to be believed, Hollywood’s star couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are adopting an orphan boy from Syria, one of three brothers that Jolie, an UN Special Envoy for Refugees,
met on a mission to the war-torn country. If so happens, the child, Moussa, will become seventh of the couple’s children, and their fourth son.
Moussa, whose father was taken away by Syrian soldiers and mother was bombed along with their home, would also not be the first of Brangelina’s adoptive children.
The six children of the Mr. and Mrs. Smith pair come with their own unique backgrounds.
So if little Moussa does become a part of the Jolie-Pitt family, he will be coming home to siblings born in different parts of the world. And if you still don’t about them, here’s a little background:
Maddox was adopted on March 10 in 2002 by Angelina Jolie as a single parent, although she and her then-husband Billy Bob Thornton had announced the adoption together.
Born in a Cambodian orphanage as Rath Vibol on August 5 in 2001, Maddox’s adoption was initially halted after the U.S. government banned adoptions from Cambodia amid allegations of child trafficking. After much struggle, the adoption was finalized and Jolie took custody of son Maddox on March 15 in 2007.
Four years later, Brad Pitt initiated the process of legally adopting partner Jolie’s two children, Maddox and Zahara. In 2006, the process was finalized and Maddox became his first son.
Angelina and Brad have described the young man as being “mature”, “nurturing”, a “professional big brother”, and a “real intellectual”. Maddox has done a cameo role in his father’s film World War Z and is to help his mother with her directorial project on his native country, Cambodia.
