Brad Pitt Doubles His Pleasure With Vivienne and Knox

The prospect of raising twins — double the diapers, double the feedings, double the work – is daunting for most. For Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, however, it’s also “double the fun.” In a new interview with the UK newspaper Telegraph, he says that the addition last summer of 6 ½-month-old fraternal twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline was an easy one to make.

“We were four [children] before, and we got into our rhythms and it worked. Then someone new comes in, and it discombobulates the movements for a moment, but then you settle in again and it just all works. Everyone’s pretty well integrated. It’s not the first time new kids have come in.”

As for the twins, who earlier this week made their first public appearance since an introductory photoshoot with PEOPLE, Brad says “it’s surprising how soon their personalities have started emerging.” From the sound of things, they’ll need strong personalities to compete with their older siblings Maddox Chivan, 7, Pax Thien, 5, Zahara Marley, 4 and Shiloh Nouvel, 2 ½! “It’s chaos at times, but there’s such joy in the house,” Brad explains. “I look and there’s our boy from Vietnam and our daughter from Ethiopia, and our girl was born in Namibia, and our son is from Cambodia, and they’re brothers and sisters, man.”

“They’re brothers and sisters and it’s a sight for elation.”

So elated, in fact, the couple “haven’t found any reason to stop” having kids. “We have the capability to give a child a home, and let me tell you it’s selfish, too, because the reward has been extraordinary,”  Brad says.
