The couple, who welcomed new arrivals Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline on July 12, are said to have undergone fertility treatment to fall pregnant as quickly as possible.
A source told Us Weekly: "They conceived through in vitro fertilization. They both desperately wanted more babies soon."
An expert is quoted as claiming that the chances of a 33-year-old conceiving fraternal twins naturally is less than 1%, with IVF boosting the odds to 25%.
Pitt and Jolie have another biological daughter and three adopted children.
