Brad Pitt - "I'm Aging Fast"
Brad Pitt has taken on one of the most exhausting roles a man can sign up for at age 45 - fatherhood to six young children with girlfriend, Angelina Jolie.
The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button star wasn't too concerned about having children when he was a young man and decided to wait until he was middle aged to start his rather large brood. Pitt recently dished on what it's like to have six children under the age of eight.
"The kids are fighting and laughing and going into hysterics and staying up late, and they're driving me crazy."
Brad Pitt seemingly had no desire to have children with his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, but can't get enough of them since coupling up with his then mistress, Angelina Jolie in 2005. Pitt and Jolie are parents to adopted children, Maddox, 7, Zahara, 3, Pax, 5, and biological children Shiloh, 2, and 5 month old twins Vivienne and Knox.
Brad said, "Watching four of them is my limit on my own so far. I hope to advance to six." He admits, "It wears you out, I'm aging fast."
Even though common sense might dictate that adding more children to their family puts more pressure on him and the children to assimilate more babies, Brad is fine with the idea, "It's the greatest endeavor I've ever taken on. Why stop now?"
And indeed, there is no reason to stop. Recent reports say that Brad and Angelina plan to spend the Christmas holiday in Ethiopia to find another child to adopt, so Zahara can have a sibling from her home country.
