Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in Namibia

Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt arrived in Namibia at the crack of dawn yesterday. As far as The Namibian was able to establish last night, the couple have reportedly brought their two children - Maddox and Zahara - with them.

Last week, gossips speculated that Jolie, who is pregnant with Pitt's child, was going to have her baby in africa.

Alternative reports have suggested that the family is just on a visit.

The Namibian Broadcasting Corporation radio news yesterday quoted immigration officials confirming that the Jolie-Pitt family had arrived at Walvis Bay at around 06h30.

Sources in Europe earlier told The Namibian that the couple had flown out of Le Bourget airport in Paris in a private jet on Monday night - believed to be headed for Namibia.

Jolie is no stranger to Namibia.

The Oscar-winning actress spent time in the country in 2002 during the filming of the international feature movie on refugees, 'Beyond Borders', at Swakopmund.

Namibia is believed to hold particularly fond memories for Jolie.

It was there that she took legal custody of her adopted Cambodian son, Maddox, in March 2002.
