Brad Pitt’s drawn-out divorce from Angelina Jolie is reportedly affecting his relationship with his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. Despite being legally single since 2019, disputes over properties like Chateau Miraval prolonged the separation.
According to sources, Pitt wants to “move forward” with de Ramon but feels hindered by the ongoing legal battle. However, recent victories and de Ramon’s finalized divorce from “The Vampire Diaries” star, Paul Wesley, prompt Pitt to seek finalization with Jolie.
Brad Pitt Is Struggling To ‘Move Forward’ With Girlfriend Due To Drawn-Out Angelina Jolie Divorce
Pitt and Jolie, once Hollywood’s most beloved couple, split in 2016 and have been embroiled in a bitter legal battle ever since.
They have been delaying their divorce despite being legally single since 2019 as they battle over their French property, Chateau Miraval, in what has been dubbed “the war of the rosés.”
According to an insider, Pitt, who publicly debuted his relationship with de Ramon in November 2022, is eager to finalize the divorce and “shake off” from his past.
“Brad really wants this to be finalized more than anything,” the source told the DailyMail. “If it were up to him entirely, this would have been wrapped up a long time ago.”
“Brad wants to move forward with Ines, and he can’t when he is technically still married to the mother of his children. It is not an easy split, obviously, but it could have been wrapped in the last ten years,” the source added.
Brad Pitt’s Legal Dispute With Angelina Jolie
Amid the ongoing legal battle over Chateau Miraval, Jolie accused Pitt of “financially draining her,” labeling him as “controlling.”
However, a recent report by the DailyMail revealed a different narrative. Pitt’s involvement in the winery business has significantly increased its value, with their former French home now worth a staggering $164 million, up from $60 million in 2008.
Despite Jolie selling her 50 percent stake in the winery to a Russian oligarch, Yuri Shefler, in 2021 without Pitt’s consent, the actor has secured legal victories, including regaining control of the vineyard.
Pitt also triumphed in the LA Superior Court against Jolie’s claims of his lawsuit being “frivolous,” “malicious,” and “part of a problematic pattern.”
Despite the legal battle with Jolie, the insider shared that “Brad has a great relationship with most of his kids who have met Ines. They are happy that their dad is happy, and Ines has taken kindly to the children.”
Ines de Ramon’s Divorce Allegedly Encouraged The Actor To Finalize Divorce From Angelina Jolie
De Ramon recently concluded her three-year marriage to “Vampire Diaries” star Paul Wesley, which has reportedly prompted Pitt to push for the finalization of his own divorce from Jolie.
“Ines finalizing her divorce from her husband and moving in with Brad spurs him on to finalize with Angie more than ever,” the source revealed. “Brad has fought hard to beat his demons that arose during his marriage to Angie. He does not drink, and he has become the man who deserves the type of love he is getting from Ines.”
The couple’s relationship began publicly in November 2022, shortly after de Ramon separated from her ex-husband.
They were then spotted together at a Bono concert in Los Angeles, where they engaged in conversations with celebrities like Sean Penn, Cindy Crawford, and Rande Gerber.
Ines de Ramon Moved In With Brad Pitt
Amid their blossoming romance, the lovebirds reportedly took a significant “natural” step in their romance by cohabiting at Pitt’s residence in California.
According to a source who spoke to People magazine, the decision for de Ramon to move in was a natural progression, as “they were spending so much time together at Brad’s that it just made sense for Ines to move in with him.”
They added, “She still has her own place, but they spend most of their time at his, and Ines has most of her belongings there.”
