Brad Pitt seems to be at a crossroads in his personal life, with recent reports suggesting that he may be ready to marry again. The actor, who finalized his divorce from Angelina Jolie on December 30, 2024, is now reportedly contemplating a proposal to his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. Sources close to Pitt, 61, say he asked the 32-year-old jewelry designer to marry him just before departing for a six-week film shoot in New Zealand.
According to RadarOnline.com, this bold move reflects Pitt's desire to move on from his tumultuous past. A source close to the actor stated, "Brad is finally feeling free of his past and the seemingly endless divorce from Angelina. He wants Ines to know he'll always be there for her, no matter how far he travels for work." This newfound freedom appears to be a significant shift for Pitt, who has been under the media's microscope for years due to his high-profile relationships.
However, not everyone is convinced that Pitt is ready to walk down the aisle again. A contrasting report from the Daily Mail suggests that while Pitt is deeply in love with de Ramon, he is hesitant to marry due to the emotional scars left by his previous marriages. An insider claimed, "Brad is totally in love with Ines, but he doesn’t want to go down the road of marriage and kids." This sentiment reportedly stems from the toll his divorce from Jolie took on him, as well as his strained relationship with their six children.
The source elaborated, "He’s been burned badly by the divorce from Angelina and his kids wanting little if nothing to do with him." At 61, Pitt is enjoying his life as it is, free from the pressures of marriage. Nevertheless, his friends, including fellow actor George Clooney, have expressed hope that Pitt might reconsider. The source noted, "He has spoken to those close to him, and everyone has signed off on him doing it. They believe it would be a nice thing for him as it would be the official moving on from his romantic past with Jennifer Aniston and Angie."
Interestingly, the dynamics of Pitt's relationship with de Ramon differ from his past romances. Unlike his previous partners, de Ramon is not part of the entertainment industry, which sources say has contributed to their strong bond. "He loves being with someone who's outside the industry and doesn't feel the need to compete with him. I'm sure that's a big relief for him," the insider explained.
As the speculation continues, the couple is reportedly considering a traditional church wedding, with plans possibly set for late summer or early fall. While Pitt's team has publicly denied engagement rumors, sources suggest that a wedding is indeed in the works. The insider shared, "Brad's no kid, but he wants to give her the church wedding she deserves without turning it into a reality show circus."
Meanwhile, Pitt is also busy with his professional commitments. His upcoming film, F1, is set to hit theaters overseas on June 25, 2025, and in the United States on June 27, 2025. This American sports action drama, directed by Joseph Kosinski, features a star-studded cast including Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, and even racing legend Lewis Hamilton.
As Pitt navigates this new chapter in his life, the contrast between his past and present relationships is striking. His marriage to Aniston ended in 2005 after five years, and his union with Jolie, which began in 2004, lasted until their separation in 2016. The lengthy legal battles and emotional turmoil from that relationship have undoubtedly shaped his current outlook on love and commitment.
Despite the mixed signals regarding marriage, it's clear that Pitt and de Ramon share a deep connection. The actor's desire to cherish de Ramon, as evidenced by his thoughtful gestures and willingness to prioritize her feelings, shows a maturity that has perhaps come with age.
As the world watches this unfolding story, the question remains: will Brad Pitt take the plunge again, or will the shadows of his past keep him from saying "I do" for a third time? Only time will tell, but for now, it seems that Pitt is enjoying his relationship with de Ramon and taking things one step at a time.
