Brad Pitt to adopt Angelina's children

[cupcakesbakingonanopenfire]

'Brad Pitt's publicist has confirmed that the actor is in the process of becoming the adoptive father of Maddox and Zahara Jolie. In court papers filed Friday, it was revealed that Brad and Angelina are petitioning the court to change the names of the children to Maddox Jolie-Pitt and Zahara Jolie-Pitt. Pitt's publicist admits that they are "confirming that Brad Pitt is in the process of becoming the adoptive father of both children," but says that no further comment will be made on the matter.
'Rumors are floating that the adoption is one of the first steps towards cementing the family - prenups have also apparently been drawn up for a future marriage between the pair.'

(that's not my spelling of 'rumors' btw!)

can't they get married first

hurrumph

I keep thinking about these guys, and in some ways its good just how together they are - if my husband was leaving me for another woman, then I would want it to be for a woman he truly loved, and not just a fling. Does that make sense? Adopting the children and getting married makes me feel like they made the right choice, even though it was a horrible hurty choice for many involved.

Does it matter which order they do it in? Stability for the children seems the higher priority to me

well neither of them have fab track records

lets just see how it pans out shall we

me too

I'm far too optimistic about everything

Ahh bless them. Think people should give them a break. Wasn't one of the reasons he split up with Anniston because he wanted kids? He's got it all now and i think its sweet.

I still want a 'Team Aniston' t-shirt so you can guess my bias...

But Anniston reckons she wants children too. Methinks there's a bit more to the split...

Yup, definately more going on there than we will ever know.

i reckon jennifer and brad splitting up wasn't anything to do with having children or not. i think he was unfaithful with angelina and that's what did it.

Personally, as a happily unmarried mother...I agree with Enid

Suspect (a) they are both mad as snakes (b) that's not exactly unusual in their circle.

OOOOOpppss....Guess I should have done a search before posting......

Team Aniston here too!

Angelina is BARKING!!!!

Another team Aniston.

That jolie woman is a dirty cheap tart who steals husbands.

IMO of course

I'm on team Pitt! Don't really care who gets the man unless its me

They are the only celeb couple that I like, I think they are great and I'm really happy for them. They seem so much better suited than pitt/anniston ever did, they have alot more similar interests and seem happy and have their heads screwed on. Good luck to them

I'm with Enid.

Team Enid

Oh, I see a Woody Allen/Mia Farrow debacle in a few years...

Of coure it has to be brad's fault doesn't it? Anniston was too busy with her non existant career to be see that her man was drifting away.
No sympathy for Angelina as Billy Bob cheated on her, then? No, I thought not.
