Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon have been dating for more than a year, but the couple are rarely seen together in public. That is, until July, when the pair made a rare public appearance as they were spotted holding hands while attending the British Grand Prix in England.
Brad and Ines first set the romance rumour mill churning back in November 2022, when the pair were pictured attending a Bono concert in Los Angeles. One insider claimed Ines was a member of the actor's team, but this was indirectly countered by a source close to Ines, who told People that they were introduced by a mutual friend and had been dating for a 'few months'. The insider added that Brad was 'really into' Ines, who was previously married to The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley, but it 'wasn't an exclusive relationship'.
Now, it's a different story. The couple have been together for over a year and live together, and were spotted this summer at Silverstone as they watched seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton win the British Grand Prix. Of the relationship, a source told People, 'Brad loves so many things about her. She's great for him.'
Following their public PDA, here's everything you need to know about Ines de Ramon, the ex-wife of Paul Wesley and the current girlfriend of Brad Pitt...
Who is Ines de Ramon?
According to LinkedIn, jewellery executive Ines de Ramon is the Vice President of Anita Ko Jewellery. Online, it's described as 'a fine jewellery company based in Los Angeles' that 'considers both style and design without sacrificing quality'. It's a position Ines has held since January 2020.
It's been reported that Ines' parents hail from Madrid, but relocated to Switzerland. Ines grew up in Cologny, on the shores of Lake Geneva, where she previously worked in client services in the hotel industry, before switching to the jewellery department at Christie's. It was during this time she obtained a degree in Business Administration from the University of Geneva. Ines then moved to New York between 2014 and 2018, and later upped sticks to LA.
The star is also multi-lingual, speaking English, German, Spanish, French and Italian.

Per a report in People, Ines celebrated her 34th birthday on 19 December 2023 - just one day after Brad turned 60.
How does a double Sagittarius relationship fare, you ask? Astrotalk says it's a 'blissful one,' with a 'Sagittarius and Sagittarius couple [being] tremendous with each other with one of the supremest compatibilities among all the zodiacs. They would cope up with one another in the hardest of times, and will be each other’s back as well.'
What is the age difference between Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon?
Brad is 60 years old, while Ines is 34. This makes Ines 26 years younger than Brad. Although there's nearly three decades between them, an insider close to the couple told Us Magazine that the age gap 'isn't an issue' in their relationship.
It's not Brad's first age gap relationship either. He was 11 years older than his previous wife, Angelina Jolie.
How did Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon meet?
It's understood that Brad and Ines first met through a mutual friend. The couple set tongues wagging with romance rumours in November 2022, before Brad allegedly brought her to his Babylon premiere. Then, they all but had their relationship confirmed when pap photos obtained by Page Six saw them celebrating the New Year together in Cabo.
A source told People at that time Brad 'wasn't seeing anyone else' and that he was 'very happy.' They added, 'They are dating and having fun. They have a good thing going on. There is no stress. Brad is enjoying it.'
In February 2023, a Daily Mail report claimed that Brad and Ines were 'serious' and 'bonded over their divorces' - referring to their respective splits from Angelina Jolie and The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley. It was also alleged that Ines had met 'most of' Brad's six children, whom he shares with ex-wife Angelina: Maddox Chivan, 22, Pax Thien, 20, Zahara Marley, 19, Shiloh Nouvel, 18, and twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline, both 15.
Seven months later, a source told Us Weekly that the couple were 'stronger than ever' a year into their romance. However, the insider contradicted previous reports, suggesting that the jewellery professional hadn't yet been introduced to Brad's children.
The couple have strived to keep their relationship out of the limelight as much as humanly possible for such a big A-lister. In November 2023, a source divulged to Entertainment Tonight exactly why Brad and Ines opt to keep it low-key.
They said, 'Brad and Ines are going strong and things are going great between them. Ines is still working with Anita Ko, and Brad is of course busy with work as well, but they are still seeing each other whenever they can.'
'They both make an effort to keep their relationship private out of respect for each other and to protect it.'
In December, the pair were pictured in high spirits during Brad's 60th birthday celebrations at Mother Wolf in Los Angeles, shortly after an insider confirmed that the award-winning actor introduces Ines as his girlfriend.
When was Ines de Ramon married to Paul Wesley?
Ines and Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley were first linked back in June 2018, going Instagram official the following month. Their relationship came soon after Paul's split from Phoebe Tonkin. It wasn't long until they were married, tying the knot in February 2019. It was actually Paul's co-star, Nina Dobrev, who confirmed that the loved-up couple had said 'I do.'
Explaining that she was good friends with Paul and Ines, Nina said, 'We hang out a lot. We're really good friends. I love his wife. It's so funny how time changes everything, because I never thought he would be one of my best friends.'
However, Ines and Paul's marriage was not meant to be, and it was revealed in September 2022 that they had separated. A rep for the couple told People, 'The decision to separate is mutual and occurred five months ago. They request privacy at this time.'
Paul filed for divorce in February 2023, citing 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for their split. The divorce was finalised in February 2024.
