Brad Pitt Does Plan to Marry Ines De Ramon After All, as New Photos Show Her Arriving at a Malibu Party

By

The same week one prominent source swore Brad Pitt had “no plans on getting married,” the rumor mill did a sharp 180. Insiders are now claiming the 62-year-old actor is seriously considering making it official with jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, the woman he’s quietly dated since 2022.

What started as a steady, low-key romance appears to have reached a new chapter. After years of Brad keeping marriage firmly off the table following two high-profile divorces, the narrative has flipped to talk of wedding bells.

De Ramon, 33, is nearly three decades younger than Pitt, and she’s already woven herself tightly into his family fabric. One insider told Page Six that Brad’s relatives basically treat her as one of their own. She doesn’t just show up for big events, she texts and makes plans with his siblings, nieces, and nephews independently of Brad. “At this point they basically consider her family and one of their own,” the source said. “Ines is incredibly close with Brad’s family. They absolutely adore her and she’s been welcomed with open arms from the beginning… She’s built real relationships with everyone.”

That level of integration stands in stark contrast to the distance growing between Pitt and his own children. Five of his six kids with ex-wife Angelina Jolie have taken steps to drop his surname. Maddox filed paperwork in May to remove “Pitt.” Zahara recently switched to using just “Jolie.” Shiloh legally dropped Pitt after turning 18. The twins Knox and Vivienne have also begun going by Jolie alone. Only Pax has kept a foot in both worlds, maintaining some ties to Brad’s side of the family while his relationship with his father remains strained.

Both Pitt and de Ramon have been through marriage before. She was quietly married to The Vampire Diaries actor Paul Wesley from 2019 until their split in 2022. Pitt’s divorce from Jennifer Aniston was finalized in 2005 after five years of marriage. His second marriage to Jolie, which began in 2014, dragged through a bitter, eight-year legal battle before finally ending in December 2024. Friends have long described him as “gun shy” about walking down the aisle again.

Yet the latest whispers suggest time, and Ines, may be changing that. The couple was spotted looking loved-up at the French Open in Paris this month, sharing PDA during the women’s final. They’ve also been seen on date nights in LA and cozy outings in Paris. Insiders previously told outlets like RadarOnline that Pitt has privately referred to her as his “wife” in spirit and that they’re “as good as married” for all intents and purposes. Some speculation even floated the idea of a private spiritual ceremony already having taken place, with talk of a larger celebration possibly on the horizon.

The timing of this rumored shift is interesting. Brad’s contentious divorce was only finalized late last year. With that chapter officially closed and Ines solidly embedded in his day-to-day life and family circle, some sources claim he’s finally warming to the idea of making things permanent. Others point to her steady, low-drama presence as a healing force amid the ongoing family tensions with his children.

Nothing has been confirmed by Brad or Ines themselves, and these remain unverified insider claims flying around the usual tabloid circuit. But the flip from “he’ll never marry again” to “wedding bells could be coming” happened in the span of days, with the 62-year-old actor and his 33-year-old girlfriend continuing to show up together in public looking happy.
