Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s 6 Kids: Everything There Is To Know
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt may no longer be together, but they’re still the proud parents of six incredible children.
Back in 2002, Jolie became a mom for the first time when she adopted Maddox Chivan, 21, from an orphanage in Cambodia. Three years later, the family grew with the addition of Zahara Marley, 18, who was born in Ethiopia. It wasn’t long before Pitt also adopted Jolie’s first two children — and the couple decided to continue to expand their family.
Following the 2006 birth of their daughter Shiloh Nouvel, 17, Jolie and Pitt adopted their son Pax Thien, 19, from Vietnam. Then in 2008, their household grew even more when they welcomed their twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline, 15.
Jolie has said that having a large family and a multicultural upbringing has impacted her children in an overwhelmingly positive way.
“They’re pretty great people and because there’s so many of them, I think they’ve had a very significant effect on each other. It’s not like I’m the head of anything. I’m very honest with my kids. And I’m very human with my kids,” Jolie told PEOPLE.
