Brad Pitt’s life has always been under the media spotlight, and his past marriage with Angelina Jolie still resonates with fans and onlookers. However, Pitt is entering a new chapter, diving back into the dating scene and showing a strong romantic interest in 32-year-old model Ines de Ramon.
Recently turning 60, Pitt’s milestone birthday has ignited curiosity about his relationship status and whether he plans to remain single or pursue a committed relationship. Sources suggest that his connection with de Ramon is seen as his “first real relationship” since his high-profile divorce from Jolie. This has fueled rumors about the seriousness of their bond. However, Pitt appears cautious, reportedly avoiding publicly labeling de Ramon as his girlfriend, despite the closeness of their relationship.
An insider shared with PEOPLE, “He introduces [Ines] as his girlfriend.” The source continued, saying, “It’s great to see him in a good place. Ines makes him very happy.” Observers see Pitt’s relationship with de Ramon as a positive turn, especially considering the challenges he faced in his personal life after his split from Jolie.
Pitt and Jolie’s divorce in 2016 was intense and widely publicized. Jolie sought sole custody of their six children, a legal battle that drew considerable attention. In 2021, an email from Jolie to Pitt was released, shedding light on their fractured relationship. In the email, Jolie described her difficult decision to sell her share of Château Miraval, the estate they once shared and cherished. The decision was reportedly linked to a painful incident in which Pitt, allegedly intoxicated, acted violently, causing harm to one of their children and striking another.
This incident brought negative attention to Pitt, as did a recent resurfaced story involving an Instagram post by his son, Pax, who referred to Pitt as a “terrible person.” Pax, now 16, expressed his resentment, claiming that Pitt’s actions had deeply hurt his family. He added that the “truth would eventually be revealed,” suggesting unresolved tensions within the family.
The post continued with accusations that Pitt showed little concern or understanding for his youngest children, who reportedly felt scared in his presence. “You can never comprehend the harm you caused my family since you lack the ability to do so,” Pax stated, underscoring the emotional toll the family drama has taken on the children.
While Pitt appears to be moving forward with a new relationship, his past remains a heavy burden. His public image, once characterized by charisma and box-office appeal, is now marked by a history of family struggles and personal challenges. Still, his budding romance with de Ramon suggests that he is working toward a happier, more balanced life, one that might provide him with some respite from his difficult past.
