The 32-year-old actress – who is expecting her second biological child with partner Brad Pitt – wants to move her family abroad before she gives birth this summer.

A source said: “Angelina is proud of her French roots and wants her latest addition to be born and raised there.”

Angelina, who also has three adopted children with Brad, has been seriously thinking about the dramatic lifestyle change ever since her mother Marcheline Bertrand died of ovarian cancer in January 2007.

She and Brad have now reportedly bought a chateau in the south of France which they plan to make their new family home. The pair’s adopted sons, six-year-old Maddox and four-year-old Pax, have already started learning French ahead of the move.

Maddox and Pax will be reportedly welcoming a third baby sister this summer, despite reports Angelina is pregnant with twins.

The source added to The Sun: “Angelina has been told she is expecting a girl. She’s thrilled.” The couple already have an adopted three-year-old daughter Zahara and a 21-month-old biological baby girl Shiloh.
