Who is Brad Pitt’s new girlfriend? Inside the private life of jewelry professional Ines de Ramon

Brad Pitt may still be embroiled in a bitter divorce and custody battle with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie – but he may well have found some solace in the form of a budding new romance, with someone from within his own professional inner circle, no less. 

The 58-year-old was spotted getting very up close and personal with high-end jewelry brand VP Ines de Ramon, 29, on Sunday – when the pair stepped out to attend a Bono concert in Los Angeles together

To the ignorant observer, the duo might have been mistaken for any smitten couple enjoying a romantic evening on the town, with images obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com showing a normally-reserved Brad wrapping his arms around Ines for a quick embrace, while she was later seen touching his stomach in a gesture of intimacy. 

It is not the first time that rumors of a new romance have swirled around Brad in the six years since he and Angelina, 47, announced their divorce – however his very public display of affection for Ines, who is the former wife of Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley, suggests there could well be something different about his potential new flame. 

Certainly, she does not boast the same star-studded past as his two ex-wives, movie stars Angelina and Jennifer Aniston. Nor, it would seem, does she have a desire to step into the bold glare of the Hollywood spotlight – although some may argue that will be inevitable if she is to embark on a romance with the Oscar winner. 

Instead, Ines appears to have something that Brad may view as being far more attractive: a fierce desire to protect her privacy.  

The actor, 58, was photographed arriving at a Bono concert in Los Angeles alongside Ines, 29, and the two appeared to be completely smitten. At one point during, he was even seen putting his arms on Ines’ shoulders and pulling her in close to him

But who exactly is the woman who has appeared to win over Brad’s heart? While Ines does her best to lead a private life, she was propelled into the public eye back in 2018, after news hit the web that she was dating actor Paul, 40

From her impressive career and achievements to her past romance with Paul and her connection to Brad, FEMAIL has uncovered all the intimate details on the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood alum’s rumored new love interest

But who exactly is the woman who has appeared to have won over Brad’s heart? Ines does her best to lead a private life out of the spotlight, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t been subjected to the world of glitz and glam before her alleged romance to Brad kicked off. She actually has a few celebrity friends of her own, including Nina Dobrev and her boyfriend, Olympic skier Shaun White, whom she met through her ex-husband, Paul, 40.

In addition, she has launched a successful career for herself in the jewelry business, working her way up from a retailer at a lavish Swiss jewelry company to the Vice President of LA-based brand Anita Ko Jewelry, which sells pieces that cost as much as $71,000 and has been worn by famous faces like Hailey Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian.

Ines spent her college years studying in Switzerland and is fluent in four different languages, and it’s certainly possible that her ties to Europe was one of the things that attracted Brad – as he is a big fan of the continent and is often seen jetting off to his vineyard in France to tend to his wine company, Miraval Wines – which is just one of the many things he is battling his ex-wife Angelina for in court.

A recap of Brad and Angelina’s messy split: The former couple has been embroiled in a nasty custody battle over their six kids for years

Brad and Angelina (seen in 2015) first met on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2004. They married 10 years later, in August 2014, but split two years later, after getting into an alleged altercation on a private plane in September 2016

Brad and Angelina first met on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2004, when he was still married to Jennifer Aniston, and they soon fell for one another.

He separated from Jennifer in January 2005, and soon after, he and Angelina confirmed that they were dating. They tied the knot in August 2014, and welcomed three children together. They also adopted two others, and Brad adopted the son that Angelina had adopted before they got together.

But in August 2016, their romance came crashing down when news hit the web that the actress had filed for a divorce from Brad, citing irreconcilable differences. 

She later accused him of domestic violence, claiming that he ‘grabbed her by the head’ and ‘pushed her into the bathroom wall’ during an alleged argument between them on a private plane in September 2016. 

Since then, the former couple has been involved in a nasty custody battle over their six kids, Maddox, 21, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 16, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 14

‘I separated for the well-being of my family. It was the right decision,’ Angelina later told Vogue India. ‘I continue to focus on their healing. 

‘Some have taken advantage of my silence, and the children see lies about themselves in the media, but I remind them that they know their own truth and their own minds. In fact, they are six very brave, very strong young people.’

Since then, the former couple has been involved in a nasty custody battle over their six kids, Maddox, 21, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 16, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 14.

Brad and Angelina were granted joint custody of their kids in May 2021, however, months later, Judge John Ourderkirk was dismissed from their case due to a past ‘business relationship’ with Brad’s lawyers – which meant his ruling was vacated.

Brad was briefly linked to MIT professor Neri Oxman following his and Angelina’s split. He was then rumored to be dating Nicole Poturalski in 2020, but not much is known about their relationship. It was also reported recently that he was spending time with Emily Ratajkowski, but that appears to have fizzled out.
