Jolie and Pitt treat children to Steven Gerrard kits for Christmas

You would expect Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt to splash out on expensive gadgets and toys for their large brood, but the couple has simply opted to splash out on Liverpool football kits for their six children. The couple has spent a great deal of time in the UK this year and it seems they picked up a love of football while here, in particular Liverpool player Steven Gerrard and have decided to buy their children a hoard of memorabilia. “They rang the club shop and spent hundreds. Son Maddox is a big fan and his favourite player is Steven Gerrard,” a source told The Sun, before adding that the Hollywood couple ordered several shirts, mugs, caps and tracksuits. Angelina is believed to have developed a passion for the team in 2002 when she and eldest son Maddox, 11, spent time in the Merseyside where she was filming a movie.
