Brad Pitt is reportedly moving closer to finishing his long and complicated divorce from Angelina Jolie, largely due to his relationship with Ines de Ramon. A source shared with Page Six that the 32-year-old jewelry designer has played a significant role in encouraging Pitt to settle, helping them both to progress in their lives together.
According to the insider, “Ines envisions a future life with Brad, possibly including children, free from the burdens of their extensive divorce battle.” The two have been linked romantically since late 2022 and are said to have developed a meaningful bond, with de Ramon providing support and stability for Pitt.
Angelina Jolie, 49, first filed for divorce from Pitt in September 2016, citing irreconcilable differences. Even though they became legally single in 2019, issues surrounding their $62 million estate and vineyard, Chateau Miraval, have contributed to ongoing disputes. However, on December 30, the couple finally signed the divorce papers, marking a significant step in their respective moves towards healing. A source noted, “Both parties recognized it was time to proceed. It benefited both to finalize this.”
De Ramon’s positive influence on Pitt is notable, with a source stating, “She is vocal about the idea that happiness is attainable once this is resolved.” Additionally, she brings a healthy perspective to their relationship, ensuring that legal troubles do not create tension. The couple made their first public appearance together at the Venice Film Festival in August 2024, highlighting their growing commitment.
Support for Brad Amidst Divorce
Pitt and Jolie are parents to six children – Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne – with their children’s well-being being a primary concern during the divorce. Jolie’s lawyer expressed that she is dedicated to promoting healing within the family: “It has been over eight years since Angelina initiated the divorce. She and the children have focused on establishing peace and recovery.“
For Pitt, de Ramon has provided a grounding force during this transition, with one insider stating, “She keeps their relationship strong, regardless of the external disputes.“
