Brad Pitt Clears Up Speculation About Relationship with Ines de Ramon
As Brad Pitt gears up to promote his upcoming movie, F1, about the Formula One circuit, he is setting the record straight about his relationship with girlfriend Ines de Ramon. In a recent interview with GQ, Pitt, 61, addressed the speculation that their public debut nearly a year ago was a calculated move to coincide with the movie’s promotion.
Pitt dismissed the idea, stating, “No, dude, it’s not that calculated. If you’re living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve.” The couple made their first public appearance at the British Grand Prix in July 2024 and later attended the Venice International Film Festival together.
This relationship with de Ramon, 32, is Pitt’s first since finalizing his divorce with ex-wife Angelina Jolie. The divorce battle, which lasted for years, was officially settled in December 2024.
Settling the Divorce
Reflecting on the divorce proceedings, Pitt shared, “I don’t think it was that major of a thing. Just something coming to fruition. Legally.” After being declared legally single in November 2019, Pitt and Jolie continued to navigate custody agreements for their six children and ownership of shared properties, including a French winery.
Jolie’s lawyer, James Simon, expressed relief that this chapter of the ongoing process had concluded, stating, “Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.”
Ines de Ramon’s Influence
Sources close to the couple revealed that de Ramon played a significant role in encouraging Pitt to settle the divorce and move forward. “Ines wants Brad to find peace, forgive and move on. From her perspective, it doesn’t make sense for him to hold on to all the animosity,” an insider shared earlier this year.
The source also mentioned de Ramon’s hopefulness about helping Pitt mend his relationship with Jolie, emphasizing the positive impact she has had on Pitt’s life. “Being with her has brought new meaning to his life. Brad can’t rave enough about how madly in love he is. They complement each other,” the insider added.
Looking Towards the Future
While Pitt has kept details of his romance with de Ramon private, he did express his happiness in the present moment. Speaking to GQ, Pitt mentioned that he is “really happy” at this stage of his life.
As Pitt continues to promote his movie and navigate his personal life, fans are eager to see how his relationship with de Ramon unfolds and how he continues to prioritize healing and moving forward.
