Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie's Multicultural Meal Times

The couple make sure their children know their roots...

Friday 28th Nov 2008

Angelina Jolie and Britt Pitt insist on having regular multicultural meal times in their household, according to the mum-of-six.

Angelina - who has been at the centre of more pregnancy rumours this week - says that she and Brad constantly remind their children of their cultural heritage.

Angelina told the BBC, "Tonight we're having Asian food for dinner and the boys are very proud and teaching the girls how to use chopsticks, because they know how to do this."

She added, "One of our nannies is really a teacher and she speaks fluent Vietnamese to him (Pax) always, so he maintains that while learning English.

"So we try to have people from their backgrounds around them and really just give them a sense of pride."

Angelina and Brad have three adopted children - Maddox, 7, who was born in Cambodia, Vietnam-born Pax, 4, and three-year-old Zahara who was adopted from Wide Horizons For Children orphanage in Addis Ababa.

Poll  Do you think Angelina is right to teach her kids about their backgrounds?

Yes - definitely

No way!

  • I think it´s great that Angie and Brad want their adopted children to know about their ethnic backgrounds. Although Pax is still learning English there´s nothing wrong that he also speaks Vietnamese. I´ve read somewhere a long time ago that Mad is learning his native language Khmer. In that way they all (Mad, Pax and Zee) will be proud of their backgrounds. Naturally they all are Americans too but have dual citizenships. Hopefully Zee learns her native language some day too.
