Pregnant star Angelina Jolie is becoming increasingly frustrated as she waits to give birth to twins and has been lashing out at hospital staff, it has been reported.

In Touch Weekly reported the Wanted actress was polite when she arrived, but her mood had "darkened" over the past few days and was making unreasonable demands on staff.

An insider said Jolie, 33, was on the verge of a meltdown.

"She's starting to feel that the staff are starstruck and not attentive enough," the insider said.

"She's throwing fits if she rings and they don't come quick enough."

Jolie has been asking for salmon for lunch, despite the hospital not having the fish dish on the menu.

"A staffer went out and bought some and it was made for her," the insider said.

"I think she's in meltdown mode. She's been getting upset if there's not enough ice in her glass."

Jolie's partner Brad Pitt and the couple's four children visit Jolie every day and stay for two or three hours, brightening the star's mood.

Pitt and Jolie recently moved into a Niraval Estate Villa in the French hamlet of Correns.

Jolie checked into the Lenval hospital last week for what her doctor described as a period of rest before she gave birth.

Jolie and Pitt have three adopted children - Cambodian Maddox, Ethiopian Zahara Marley and Vietnamese Pax Thien - and one biological child, daughter Shiloh Nouvel.
