Brad Pitt was once dubbed the world’s most eligible bachelor. Fans have heard about his romance with Ines de Ramon for quite some time. The couple intended to spend a quiet week celebrating Brad’s 60th birthday. He wanted to spend his special day with De Ramon, which speaks volumes about his commitment to her.Last month, a source told PEOPLE that De Ramon is “Brad’s first proper relationship since the divorce” from Angelina Jolie.

In fact, the Troy star has begun introducing the 32-year-old as his girlfriend. It’s fantastic to see Brad in such spirits, and Ines makes him very happy. Brad Pitt’s journey back to happiness has not been simple. His marriage to Angelina Jolie culminated in a messy divorce. The wounds from that chapter still appear to be healing.

The media famously dubbed Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie “Brangelina.” Their love story started on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and made headlines across the world. However, things changed in 2016, when Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. She also wanted sole custody of their six children. Recently, an email from Angelina Jolie to Brad Pitt became public. In the email, she highlighted her decision to sell Miraval,

an alcohol-focused corporation. This could be referring to the infamous airline incident in which an inebriated Pitt had a heated argument with their children. Even as recently as October, Brad’s name made news for less than positive reasons. An old Instagram story appeared in which his adoptive son Pax expressed his displeasure with his father, labeling him a “f****ing awful human being.”

Pax, then 16, firmly cautioned his father that “the truth will come to light someday.” He emphasized the anguish and suffering done to his family, claiming that Brad had made their lives a living nightmare. Despite the hurdles, Brad Pitt has been able to find love again. His relationship with Ines de Ramon gives him joy and happiness in this new chapter of his life.
