Angelina Jolie's Kids Take French Lessons

Angelina Jolie has decided to teach her children how to speak French, in memory of her late mother.

The actress, currently pregnant with twins, is encouraging all of her brood, six-year old Maddox, four-year old Pax, three-year old Zahara and 2-year old Shiloh, to take up the language in honour of Marcheline Betrand.

Having set up a temporary home in France with her partner Brad Pitt, Angelina is making sure her family get a good grasp of the language.

She tells Us Weekly: "(French is) a second language in the house, although I'm still learning and am not going to attempt any of it here today.

My children are starting to speak French, so being here is very good for them and their language."
