Brad Pitt has been dating jewelry designer Ines de Ramon since late 2022. Their relationship has intensified over the past few months, as confirmed by reports of their summer together abroad.

As the "Daily Mail reports," 60-year-old Brad Pitt is seriously involved with 34-year-old Ines de Ramon. The couple spent much time in Europe due to Pitt’s professional commitments. Despite being together for over a year, the actor and his partner rarely appear in public.
One exception was their joint appearance at the Venice Film Festival, where Pitt debuted his latest film, "Wolves," which he made in collaboration with George Clooney.
During the festival, the couple drew attention with their outfits – Pitt in light yellow plaid pants and de Ramon in an elegant beige skirt and white blouse. Their appearance in Venice fuelled speculation about the seriousness of their relationship.
The couple spent last summer in Château Miraval, which is currently the subject of a dispute between Pitt and Jolie. Despite the ongoing legal battle over the property, Pitt found time to spend the summer with Ines in this picturesque location.
Brad Pitt's dispute with Angelina Jolie
The winery, purchased by the couple in 2012 for about $81 million CAD, became the subject of a dispute after Jolie sold her share in 2021, which angered Pitt. The actor claims that Jolie violated their previous agreement, which stipulated that neither party could sell their share without the other’s consent.
Parallel to the vineyard conflict, Pitt’s relationship with his children, whom he shares with Jolie, has also deteriorated. Some of them have chosen to drop their father’s surname. According to reports, Pitt’s contact with his children is currently limited due to his hectic work schedule and the ongoing legal battle with his ex-wife.
Pitt and Jolie's divorce is also a fight to end a longstanding dispute. Jolie appealed to Pitt to end the court battle so the family could finally find peace. However, Pitt has no intention of backing down, claiming that Jolie is bringing personal issues into a matter that should be settled in divorce court, not in a standard business dispute.
Despite many adversities, Pitt seems determined to maintain his position in the fight for Château Miraval while building a new relationship with Ines de Ramon. Though developing away from the spotlight, their relationship seems to be a vital element of the actor’s current life, bringing him happiness and stability.
