CLAIM: Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt’s Kids Speak Secret, Fake Language

Truth rating: 0

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s oldest boys have cooked up their own secret language — and it’s driving the A-list parents crazy!” reports the National Enquirer.

The tabloid’s “source” says Maddox and Pax “have mixed their native tongues with English to create a weird lingo that only they understand.”

Maddox is from Cambodia, while Pax was born in Vietnam, and the Enquirer insider claims, “Both boys were tutored in their native languages, and Angie understands some basic words of each. But she can’t make sense out of the mish-mash they’ve created!”

And it’s supposedly creating havoc in the house!

“They boys use their made-up language when they don’t want their parents or siblings to know something,” explains the “source,” adding, “Usually, it’s about a video game, a comic book, their nannies or their parents.”

The “source” continues, “They’ll talk in their secret language and then burst out laughing, making everyone within earshot mad and self-conscious.”

Pitt is now totally in the dark.

“Angie has gotten better at deciphering the boys’ cloak-and-dagger language,” the source tells the Enquirer. “But Brad doesn’t stand a chance.”

All of this is fascinating, especially because the Enquirer has a certain flair for “made-up” things concerning the Jolie-Pitt kids.

In fact, the Enquirer has recently run fake stories about both Maddox and Pax!

This latest report may be more creative — but it’s still 100% inaccurate.

A source close to the family laughed off the tabloid tale, telling Gossip Cop the idea that Jolie and Pitt’s boys have a secret language is “totally untrue.”

In other words, it’s the Enquirer spouting gibberish.

    Secret fake language? Are they serious. Do people still buy the Enquirer?

    It’s not unheard of for kids to make up a secret language, it’s called idioglossia it’s mostly common with twins tho.

    Giberish was popular when I was a kid…and 3 of the 4 kids in our home spoke it.
    But really kids have their own little secret languages anyway. Enquirer so desperate for a story on these two…truly pathedic.

    Enquirer should leave kids completely out of their “trashy” tabloid.

    I have brothers who are twins and they are 18 months older than me. When we were little they spoke to each other in “twin talk” almost exclusively and would not speak to me at all. They thought it was hilarious. Our parents could not have cared less. Twins or close-in-age brothers making up their own language is not uncommon and is not something that would drive parents or anyone else “crazy.” I would imagine the fact that Maddox and Pax are close in age, speak two different languages and are intelligent would cause then to make up their own language just for the fun or it. However, I doubt this story is true (because, who would know?) but if it is I’m sure their parents are smart enough to know it is harmless and they are not spazing over it.

    No big deal, This is very common. My sister and I are 1yr apart in age and we became very fluent in ‘pig latin’ as I’m sure a lot of people did back in the day. We could talk secretly around our parents but after our children were old enough, they figured it right out. Enquirer will have to try harder to make this shocking.

  • Kaitlyn

    It is common for siblings (particularly multiples) to invent a language that only they understand. Not a hugely shocking story…
