Brad Pitt to adopt Jolie children

Brad Pitt is applying to become the adoptive father of Angelina Jolie's two children, his publicist has announced.
If the application is successful the children's names will be changed to Maddox Jolie-Pitt and Zahara Jolie-Pitt.
Jolie, 30, adopted Maddox from Cambodia and baby Zahara from Ethiopia.
The actors have been linked since Pitt split from ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, but both have refused to speak publicly about their relationship.
The rumours began when they starred together in the film Mr and Mrs Smith and have since been pictured together with the children.
