It’s believed that the latest addition to their family will be a two-year-old boy from Syria. Woman’s Day Australia has reported that the couple is in the process of adopting the child, called Moussa, from the Altinouzu refugee camp in Turkey.

“It was during one of Ange’s visits to the camp in her role as a United Nations ambassador for refugees and displaced people earlier this year that she first met ‘adorable’ Moussa,” writes the publication.

A charity worker, who was there when Ange met Moussa, said the Hollywood star was moved to tears by the little boy’s story and instantly felt a connection with him.

“Angelina heard about him from a translator and she was obviously upset, but Moussa was just beaming from ear to ear and when he saw she was wiping tears from her eyes he toddler up to her and gave her a hug and it was a very emotional moment and everyone was suddenly laughing and smiling.

“She kissed him on the top of his head and then they were basically inseparable for the rest of the visit.”

There’s no doubting that Brad and Ange, who are yet to comment on their alleged new child, have the financial means to support a seventh child – but they do also have half a dozen other children to consider.

The couple have already adopted three children – Maddox, 12, Pax, 11 and Zahara, nine – and are the biological parents to eight-year-old Shiloh, and five-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

Despite Brad’s acting success and fame, he says it’s fatherhood that’s made him feel “like the richest man alive.

“Being a father has changed me on so many levels and made me more generous and alive,” the actor, 50, said in a previous issue of Psychologies magazine.

“I see my children as an essential part of my life, and it means so much to be able to educate them and help them make their way in the world as they grow up. I love being a father and all the responsibilities that entails.”

We just hope that Brad and Ange's careers and globetrotting leaves time for a good amount of hands-on parenting and they don't leave it all to their various nannies...
