JOHANNESBURG – Angelina Jolie quit Paris for Namibia last week in the latest exhibition of what National Geographic calls pre-partum nesting behavior. Ms. Jolie, who is due to deliver a baby in mid-May, has been scurrying from one location to another recently as she attempts to find a safe, comfortable spot in which to birth her child.
According to NBC (Namibian Broadcasting Company), Ms. Jolie arrived at the small Walvis Bay airport on a chartered flight on April 4, accompanied by Brad Pitt and their two adopted children, Maddox and Zahara. The Jolie-Pitts immediately repaired to a luxury beach lodge near the coastal town of Swakopmund, which is Namibian for “place where celebrities go during pre-partum nesting behavior.”
“We see this sort of compulsive activity all the time,” said National Geographic‘s science editor, E. Trevor Hollins. “Near the start of the last month of pregnancy, females generally begin to investigate remote beaches, luxury lodges, and even tiny cabanas in search of a nesting place. Or you may find them, as we regularly found one of our daughters, trying to burrow under the pillows on a large sectional sofa in a guest house. Once that sort of instinctual behavior kicks in, females are also apt to hop on a plane at a moment’s notice.”
Unfortunately, Mr. Hollins pointed out, the female’s need for privacy, coupled with a rising hormone tide, can make life miserable for her male companion. While the Jolie-Pitts were in Paris, moving from luxury hotel suites to luxury apartments, Paris Match reported that Ms. Jolie had snarled angrily, bared her teeth, and lashed out at Mr. Pitt when he insisted on broaching the subject of marriage.
“The best thing Mr. Pitt can do is give her space,” said Mr. Hollins. “Provision her chosen nesting spot with water, plenty of newspapers, and a whelping box and keep an eye on her from a distance.”
