Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have had many of the contents of their US home sent to their rented villa in France.

The pregnant actress who is said to be planning a home birth wants everything ready for when she goes into labour. Brad's even had his motorbike brought over.

‘The kids are happy with the seaside being just down the road, and Brad's dying to get out and explore the French countryside on his bike,' says a source.

‘They've just had one of the happiest weeks that they've had together as a family for ages,’ the insider tells E! Online.

Angelina is said to want to give birth in France as a tribute to her late mother Marcheline Bertrand, who was of French-Canadian descent.

Brad, 44, and Angelina, 32, have daughter Shiloh, 20 months, and adopted kids Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3.

Home is where the heart is. But it never hurts to have your stuff there, as well.

A source close to the couple tells E! News that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have started importing the little things clothes, toys, the Ducati across the Atlantic after apparently opting to stay put at Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen's villa in Saint-Jean Cap-Ferrat on the French Riviera.

While the couple have been house-hunting in nearby Monte Carlo and logged time this weekend in Nice visiting Bono and The Edge, they're "more than content to just stay put," at least until the birth of their second biological child and fifth overall, the insider said.

"Everything feels right. The kids are happy with the seaside being just down the road and having a pool in the garden, and Brad's dying to get out and explore the French countryside on his bike like he did last summer when they were vacationing in the West of France."

"They've just had one of the happiest weeks that they've had together as a family for ages," the source added.

BRAD PITT and ANGELINA JOLIE have hit back at claims their Hollywood neighbours are sick of the tabloid attention they have brought to their exclusive gated community.
Other residents of Los Angeles' exclusive Franklin Village are reported to be "outraged" by the photographers who now swarm around the area, desperate for a glimpse of the couple and their four children.
Website Animalnewyork.com claims a number of homeowners are rallying to try and force the Pitt-Jolie family out of the neighbourhood.
But Pitt doesn't believe the reports - insisting he gets on well with his neighbours.
He tells the New York Post, "This is the first I've heard of this, which tells me it's mostly not true. I have lived and worked in the same location off and on since 1995 and have never had any problems with my neighbours, only paparazzi and those who peddle in sensationalism."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie hit a beach in Nice, France with son Pax, daughter Zahara and U2 guitarist/keyboardist The Edge Sunday.

Pitt, 44, was seen playfully holding Pax, 4, in the air as Jolie, 32, held Zahara, 3, and The Edge (real name, David Howell Evans) walked along.

At one point, pregnant Jolie took a seat on the rocky seaside.

Jolie and Pitt have moved to France to prepare for the birth of their second biological child. 

Hollywood super couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been honored by Time magazine for their humanitarian efforts. The magazine invited their friend George Clooney to write about them.

    "It is one thing to talk about the problems of the world and quite another to actually try to change things," writes Clooney.

    He talks about their work in Pakistan, how "they have tended to the poor and sick in Africa" and how they shelled out 1 million U.S. dollars for the victims in Darfur, among other humanitarian efforts.

    "The couple cares for three adopted children, from Cambodia, Ethiopia and Vietnam, in addition to their biological daughter.

    "There are hundreds of people who could be honored for their good works, but I've seen Brad and Angelina firsthand, and their commitment together is truly impressive," he adds.

    The couple recently took their entire family to a France city. They will stay at a villa belonging to Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen until the start of the Cannes Film Festival.

The movie won't hit theaters until September but here's a peek at Brad Pitt, in character, as a hapless gym employee who intercepts a CD with CIA secrets from the Coen Brothers' Burn After Reading.

The film, which is set to open at the Venice Film Festival in August, revolves around a fired CIA agent (played by John Malkovich) whose memoir containing government secrets gets intercepted by his wife (Tilda Swinton) who wants to use it in her divorce proceedings. But, oops, the information winds up with Pitt and Francis McDormand's characters.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been voted number 21 on TIME magazine’s TIME 100: The World’s Most Influential People.

In a tribute written by Jolie and Pitt’s close pal George Clooney, the actor talks about the couple’s charitable donations, and their efforts to raise awareness for the victims of atrocities in Darfur.

“As a team, actors Brad Pitt, 44, and Angelina Jolie, 32, have served as our goodwill ambassadors worldwide,” writes Clooney. “They brought help to Pakistan in 2005, after a catastrophic earthquake killed tens of thousands of people and left millions homeless.

“They have tended to the poor and sick in Africa. And they’ve raised global awareness and contributed $1 million of their own money–for the victims of atrocities in Darfur.

“Brad co-founded Not on Our Watch, an organization set up to focus global attention on Darfur and other hot spots.”

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will exchange vows this summer aboard one of the world's most luxurious yachts - 200million dollars 'Octopus,' one of Jolie's closest confidantes has revealed. The ship is owned by the Hollywood's golden couple's close friend Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft.
