WHILE glamour Hollywood couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt remain elusive for the paparazzi, the pair have taken another step in their relationship in a California court.
A judge has granted a request by Jolie for her children to take the surname of their adoptive father Pitt. Neither Jolie nor Pitt attended the hearing in Santa Monica, preventing the photographers from updating the few shots they have of the couple together.
The children's names will become Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt and Maddox Chivan Jolie-Pitt. Zahara celebrated her first birthday on January 8. Maddox, a boy, is four.
Pitt accompanied Jolie, his Mr & Mrs Smith co-star, when she went to Ethiopia in July to adopt Zahara.
In 2002, Jolie adopted Maddox in Cambodia where she filmed Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. Pitt's publicist Cindy Guagenti confirmed on January 11 that Jolie was pregnant with Pitt's child.
Pitt divorced Friends actor Jennifer Aniston last October after 4½ years of marriage. He denied Jolie was behind the split and for months the couple did not publicly acknowledge their relationship, despite frequent sightings together.
Jolie is divorced from actors Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.
