Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are expected to finalise the adoption of an Ethiopian child later this month, reports claim.

The pair will fly to Addis Ababa after spotting a girl that they have 'fallen in love with', according to Grazia.

"Brad and Angelina have seen pictures of a two-year-old girl they'd love to adopt. If everything goes to plan, Angelina will file papers in person in the capital city of Addis Ababa in the New Year and they will pick up their new daughter two days later," a source told the magazine.

The couple already have three adopted children, Maddox, seven, Pax, five, and four-year-old Ethiopian girl Zahara. They also have biological children Shiloh, two, and six-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

"Angelina gets a kick from saving kids and giving them this amazing life they would have never had otherwise," the source added.

"Yes they might be adding to their family fast but they want all their kids to be roughly the same age so they do the nanny stage and get it over and done with.

"Another kid in the house will make no difference to the noise and chaos they already have."
