Marie Claire's July cover girl, Angelina Jolie reveals her nude time with Brad Pitt, in a steamy interview

"I don't know how he does it, but ... I talk a lot in the bath," the actress and UN goodwill ambassador, 32, tells Marie Claire magazine. "It's easier to talk when you're naked ... Get naked with me, and I'll talk!"

Jolie, also says she's so grateful for the actor's presence in the lives of her kids.

"I'm so happy for my children – especially Mad," Jolie tells the magazine, which hits newsstands June 12. "I didn't know if he was ever going to have a dad. So when I watch them having real strong father-son time, or even when Mad tells me, 'This is a boy thing, Mom' – it's just really beautiful to see."

In addition to Maddox, Jolie and Pitt are parents to Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 1, and Pax Thien, 3.

"Our family has grown very quickly, and we have a lot of responsibility together, and we acknowledge that we are lucky we turned out be for each other everything we'd hoped. We could have been very wrong, but every challenge we hit has brought us closer. It has been that kind of relationship."

On good dad Brad: “It’s hot. There’s nothing sexier than a man who is a great father.”

On being especially happy for son Maddox: “I’m so happy for my children – especially Mad. I didn’t know if he was ever going to have a dad. So when I watch them having real strong father-son time, or even when Mad tells me, ‘This is a boy thing, Mom’ – it’s just really beautiful to see.”

On Pax’s underwear trouble: “I’m still having trouble convincing Pax that underwear and pants go together - underwear is not pants!”

On Zahara undoing her hair: “You do her hair; She takes it out. It’s like everybody just starts to undress once you’ve gotten them dressed.”

Oh Shiloh recently learning how to walk: “So she’s falling and trying to eat everything in the place.”
