Six kids — and counting?

Angelina Jolie says that, while she’s thrilled with her family life as it is, she and partner Brad Pitt haven’t ruled out having more children entirely.

“Nothing planned at the moment, but we just don’t know. I could end up pregnant,” Jolie, 36, tells Marie Claire in its January issue.

According to the Oscar winner, who recently made her directorial debut with In the Land of Blood and Honey, the home life she’s built with Pitt, 47, has taught her invaluable lessons of selflessness.

“I suppose what I’ve learned from Brad is to be able to have the kind of family whose happiness and well-being comes before your own,” she says. “I’m very, very grateful to have such a loving family, and I wouldn’t have that without him.”
