At one point in time, Brad Pitt might well have been considered the most eligible bachelor on Earth. But no more.
Fans have known for some time now about his romance with Ines de Ramon; the pair are said to have planned to celebrated his milestone 60th birthday with a low-key week.
According to PEOPLE, Pitt wasn’t of a mind to go overboard with the celebrations after ushering in his sixth decade on Monday. It surely says quite a bit about his commitment to De Ramon, then, that he wanted to spend his time with her.
Last month, a source is said to have spoken to PEOPLE and described De Ramon, ex-wife of actor Paul Wesley, as “Brad’s first proper relationship since the divorce” from Angelina Jolie.
Indeed, the Troy star is said to have started introducing the 32-year-old as his girlfriend.
“He introduces [Ines] as his girlfriend,” an insider PEOPLE. “It’s great to see him in a good place. Ines makes him very happy.”
It’s been a rocky road back to happiness for Pitt, whose marriage to Angelina Jolie ended in a tumultuous separation, the wounds of which still don’t appear to have fully healed.
Famously dubbed ‘Brangelina’ in the media, the A-listers fell in love on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, embarking on a romance that stole headlines all over the world.
In 2016, however, Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. She also moved to request sole custody of the pairs six children, Maddox, Pax, Shiloh, Zahara, Vivienne and Knox.
On January 21, 2021, Angelina Jolie emailed Brad Pitt, an email which has since then made public. In the email, she mentions that she writes “with a heavy heart” to inform Pitt of her decision to sell Miraval, “a business that is centered around alcohol.” This is perhaps a reference to the now infamous plane event where an intoxicated Pitt “choked” one of their children and then “struck another in the face” before he poured alcohol on her and the kids.
As recently as October did Brad find his name in the headlines for a less than savory reason, after an old Instagram story surfaced wherein his adopted son Pax had labeled him a “f****ing awful human being”.
Pax, who was 16 at the time, expressed his displeasure with his father and warned him “the truth will come to light someday.”
“You time and time and again prove yourself to be a terrible and despicable person,” Pax wrote over an image of his father accepting the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.
“You have no consideration or empathy toward your four youngest children who tremble in fear when in your presence.
“You will never understand the damage you have done to my family because you’re incapable of doing so.
It’s Bed Time And This Toddler Is Excited!
It is 7:30 PM, and Mia, who is three years old, is bursting with energy. Mia is excited for sleep, bouncing around the house with her favorite stuffed animal tucked under her arm and her jammies on.
Sarah and Mike, Mia’s parents, laugh as they observe the contrast between Mia’s eagerness for bedtime and their regular arguments. But Mia’s excitement is contagious tonight.
Giggling, Mia dashes to her room and calls out to her parents to join her for the ritual of going to bed. Mike and Sarah trail after, fascinated by Mia’s unexpected love of sleep.
The nightly routine takes a lively turn in Mia’s room. Mia insisted on selecting a colorful story about amiable dragons from a stack of books for her bedtime reading. To Mia’s enjoyment, Mike creates sound effects while Sarah reads aloud.
Following the narrative, Mia takes control of her nighttime routine, making sure to choose her coziest blanket, brush her teeth with a disproportionate amount of excitement, and arrange her stuffed animals in the ideal order.
Mia surprised Sarah and the rest of the family by breaking into her favorite bedtime song, complete with unexpected dance moves and off-key humming. When Sarah and Mike join in, the family starts singing happily.
After finishing her nightly rituals, Sarah bends in to kiss Mia good night. With beaming eyes, Mia whispers, “I love you, Daddy and Mommy,” and then curls up under her covers.
Mike and Sarah look at one other, amazed at the unanticipated happiness Mia has brought to their evening. They come to the realization that sometimes the cutest things may be the most heartwarming as they carefully exit Mia’s room.
Sarah and Mike, thankful for the small pleasures of bedtime and the love that unites their family, consider the beauty of parenthood as Mia smiles and goes to sleep. They feel fortunate to have such a lively and affectionate little daughter as they leave Mia’s room.
