It seems that Angelina Jolie has taken a dim view as to how Madonna went about adopting her new son. Jolie has reportedly called Madonnas adoption of the Malawian boy illegal and has said she’d never have adopted a child under the same circumstances.

“Madonna knew the situation in Malawi, where he was born,” Jolie was quoted as telling the Paris-based magazine Gala. “It’s a country where there is no real legal framework for adoption.

“Personally, I prefer to stay on the right side of the law. I would never take a child away from a place where adoption is illegal.”

Yesterday Jolie issues a statement indicating that the magazine had misrepresented some of her statements.

“The article included many falsehoods,” she said . “I said many positive things that were omitted. I feel we must focus on the present and I encourage everyone to be supportive so that every child can adjust nicely to their new home.”

Apparently the Malawian government expressed admiration for how Madonna has gone about this adoption. The terms of the interim custody arrangement requre Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie require them to submit to monitoring by child and welfare officials for 18 months. After that period of time little Davids adoption may be finalized.

“We have been monitoring her,” spokesperson Adrina Mchiela told Reuters on Friday, “and so far we see a loving mother in Madonna, and David is very fine.”

Davids father, Yohane Banda, said last week that he’d like to contact Madonna to find out how his son is but he doesn’t know her number and doesn’t have any other way of getting in touch with her.

The first official court assessment of Madonna’s adoption process is expected in May. In November, a coalition of 67 Malawian human rights groups was granted its request to be a party to the assessment.

In the Gala Magazine interview Jolie alluded to the fact that both she and Pitt are open to having more children. She also gushed about her feelings for Brad, saying “Don’t go repeating it whatever you do, but yes, I love him. I love him a lot,” she told the magazine. “After I met him, my life seemed more harmonious.”
