Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie adopt baby boy from Cambodia

This makes it baby number seven for the Hollywood couple

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have reportedly adopted a baby boy from Cambodia.

While Ange was in Siem Reap directing First They Killed MY Father, she decided to take the child, Allouy Shoun, under her care after her daughters Shiloh, nine and Zahara, 10, bonded with the kids from his family.

However, she reportedly didn’t tell Brad before making the decision.

“This was all staged like some secret military operation,” a source close to the couple told Radar Online.

“Angie didn’t want Brad to get wind of what she was doing because she knew he’d throw a fit! Angie has pledged to pay more than $1 million to help support the family and to adopt baby Allouy.”

Since meeting the family of 13, Shiloh and Zahara are said to have splashed more that $275 on clothes for them, along with buying them two new bikes.

“We only had one bicycle for the entire family and it was old. So for us this is an amazing gift,” said one of the children, Leida Shoun, 16.

“Shiloh and Zahara and their family are very good, very nice people!”

Speaking about the Jolie-Pitt family, she continued, “We have known them for a while. They sponsor us. I play with Shiloh or Zahara. They meet us in Siem Reap town. They take us to the arcade in the Angkor Centre. I like it when we play ball.”
