LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Brad Pitt and Ines De Ramon’s relationship is still “going strong” but the actor has no concrete plans to introduce his girlfriend to his six children, Maddox, 21, Pax, 19, Zahara, 18, Shiloh, 17, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 14, whom he shares with ex-wife Angelina Jolie. An inside source reportedly said that the ‘Once Upon A Time In Hollywood’ star is waiting for the “right time” to introduce De Ramon to the kids.
“Before Brad introduces Ines to his kids, he wanted to make sure their relationship had longevity because that’s not something he takes lightly,” an insider told the Us Weekly. However, the source mentioned that “he’s already introduced her to a number of his close friends including Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.” The update comes after it was revealed that De Ramon, a jewelry designer and vice-president of Anita Ko Jewelry, is “really into Brad” and “even wears a necklace with a ‘B’ initial.”
‘They are definitely in love’
Pitt and De Ramon were first linked in November 2022 but insiders say the couple haven't moved in together. “[Brad] and Ines haven’t gotten there yet in terms of moving in together, but it’s going in that direction,” the source told US Weekly. The source also said that the rumored couple had even planned to go “traveling to Europe together” this summer. A second source also told the publication that introducing De Ramon to Pitt’s children could be the next step if their relationship deepened.
The insider shared that Pitt and De Ramon often spent quality time together. “[Brad] seems to have found somebody who complements him on so many levels. Not only do they spend as much time together as they can, but they’re both incredibly passionate about their work and living life to its fullest… They are definitely in love and Brad’s friends are thrilled to see how happy he is with her,” they added.
‘Smitten with Ines’
Another source previously told Hollywood Life that Pitt was allegedly “smitten with Ines” and “[he] always looks forward to spending as much time with her as possible.” However, “it’s too early to tell where things might go between them,” especially because Pitt is being respectful of how recently De Ramon ended her four years of marriage with ‘Vampire Diaries’ actor Paul Wesley, the insider explained.
While De Ramon parted ways with Wesley in 2022, Pitt has been engaged in a longtime legal feud with ex-wife Angelina Jolie over the custody of their children and their stakes at the Chateau Miraval French Winery. In February 2022, Pitt sued Jolie for selling 50 percent of the property to billionaire businessman Yuri Shefler and alleged that the move was to “undermine Pitt’s investment in Miraval.”
Jolie countersued Pitt, claiming he had attempted to “seize control” of the estate “in retaliation” for their ongoing “divorce and custody proceedings.” As per recent court documents, Pitt said Jolie was being “vindictive” when she sold her share to Shefler by not giving him a chance to outbid that offer.
