Brad Pitt risks awkward run-in with ex Angelina Jolie amid loved-up PR tour with Ines de Ramon
Brad Pitt has been at risk of an awkward run-in with his second ex-wife Angelina Jolie over the past week as the less-than-amicable exes have both been out and about in Manhattan.
On Monday, the 61-year-old movie star and his much younger girlfriend since 2022, Inés-Olivia de Ramon, looked loved up at the world premiere of his new film F1 in the heart of Times Square.
'He loved having Ines by his side,' a source told People. 'She's no drama, very supportive, and they're doing really well.'
And last Friday, Brad and the 32-year-old Anita Ko Jewelry VP double dated with Bradley Cooper and his much younger girlfriend Gigi Hadid at the Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse, Cote, in the Flatiron district.
The Real Housewives of New York City star Jessel Taank was dining at the same restaurant and she told Page Six Radio on Tuesday that when the group (including Bradley's mother Gloria Campano) got up to leave, Pitt scored a 'standing ovation' from patrons.
Meanwhile, the 50-year-old Maria star was spotted shopping for groceries by herself at Fairway Market of 74th Street in the Upper West Side, a source told Page Six on Tuesday.
Angelina - whose Atelier Jolie is located in the NoHo district - has reportedly owned a condo in The Ansonia since 1997, and she told the New York Times last March that one of her sons (either Maddox or Pax) uses it as 'a crash pad.'
On July 12, the exes formerly known as 'Brangelina' - who finalized their divorce on Christmas Day - will celebrate the 17th birthdays of their only remaining underage children, fraternal twins Vivienne and Knox.
Five of Brad and Angelina's six children appear to be estranged from him including their daughters Zahara, 20; Shiloh, 19; and Vivienne - who've all publicly dropped his surname Pitt from their names.
Pitt reportedly got into a physical altercation with their son Maddox, 23; aboard a private jet in 2016 and their son Pax, 21; called him a 'world-class a**hole' and a 'despicable person' in an explosive Instagram rant revealed by the Daily Mail.
The two-time Oscar winner has since joined an all-male AA group in LA.
Brad and Jolie are entering year four of their legal war over their 1,200-acre winery Château Miraval in Correns, France where they wed, which is reportedly worth $164M.
Pitt and the Oscar-winning actress purchased the the 35-room estate together for $28.4M in 2011, but he sued her in 2021 after she sold her stake in the ownership to the Stoli Group without his approval, which prompted a countersuit.
Angelina had initially offered to settle, but she reportedly took issue with the mandatory non-disclosure agreement and backed out.
The Wolfs producer-star and Jolie - were technically only married from 2014-2016 - famously met portraying a married couple on the 2004 set of spy flick Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which prompted his 2005 divorce from Jennifer Aniston.
Brad produced and stars as racer-for-hire Sonny Hayes in Joseph Kosinski's $200M-budget sports drama F1, which hits UK theaters June 25 and US theaters June 27.
The racing flick currently has an impressive 87% critic approval rating (out of 67 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes.
F1 also features Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, and Javier Bardem.
Pitt just shaved his head for his role as a reclusive ex-Navy SEAL in David Ayer's action-adventure film Heart of the Beast alongside J. K. Simmons and Anna Lambe, which was shot in New Zealand.
The Plan B Entertainment founder produced Amy Berg's rock-doc It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley - which Magnolia Pictures will release in US theaters on August 8.
Brad also recently produced Bono: Stories of Surrender, Adolescence, Mickey 17, and 3 Body Problem.
Last February, Angelina wrapped her role as American filmmaker Maxine Walker on the Paris set of Alice Winocour's fashion drama Couture for Pathé.
Jolie was last an interviewee and contributor to Rebecca and Josh Tickell's environmental docuseries Bee: Wild, which premiered June 5 at SXSW London.
The Tony-winning producer has yet to announce a US/UK release date for her dismally-reviewed sixth directorial effort Without Blood, which Fremantle released in Italian theaters on April 10.
Angelina will also eventually reprise her role as the Mistress of Evil in Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures' third Maleficent film penned by Linda Woolverton.

The Waterfront review – this Dawson's Creek for grownups is perfect summer nonsense
Do you miss Dawson's Creek now that you're all grown up? Kevin Williamson sees you. And he has reinvented his late-90s/early-00s tale of a close knit community round a watery area for an adult market. Not adult-adult, you understand – we're talking drug-running and crumbling family empire rather than sauce – but the main ingredients of his first TV hit are all here. Namely, masses of plot and some lightly sketched characters to keep it moving swiftly enough that nobody has time to stop and say 'Hang on, fellas – I simply don't believe a word of this!' Those of us who sat through several young women choosing Dawson over Pacey are only here for the second part of the phrase 'credible drama'. The Buckleys and their fleet have long dominated the small fishing town of Havenport, North Carolina. They are rich and troubled. More so the latter as they become less of the former because business is getting tougher and mighty patriarch Harlan (Holt McCallany, charismatic, humourless) took his hand off the tiller to have two heart attacks and left his inadequate son Cane (Jake Weary, uncharismatic, humourless) to run things for a bit. Cane decided the best way to do this was to start shifting illegal narcotics for wodges of cash and an unseen gangster called Owen. Alas, we open with a set of Cane's smuggling crewmen being offed by a gang of armed men, and Owen's $10m shipment going missing. Cane asks his cousin Lynette (Bethany DeZelle), at whatever the nautical equivalent of the DVLA, North Carolinian office is, to amend some paperwork to say that he sold the murder boat three months ago. I am sure this is a foolproof cover and that nothing will escalate. The Drug Enforcement Administration descends – but the family is so steeped in internecine warfare that they hardly notice. Harlan returns to the office to beat the living daylights out of Cane and advise the clan that the problem lies not in drug smuggling but in not drug smuggling enough. They need to cut the middle men out of the picture and take hold of the supply line themselves. OK, grizzled boomer. Cane's mother, Belle (Maria Bello), is secretly cutting a deal to sell a stretch of Buckley land to a developer. But! This stretch of land is sacred to the memory of Harlan's late mother, and he won't be grizzly pleased when he finds out. And! The developer wants to develop Belle's site too, if ya know what I mean. She is considering the offer. Meanwhile! Cane's sister Bree (Supergirl's Melissa Benoist, flying here too – albeit metaphorically – and, like Bello, improving the show with every scene she is in) has been given a job in the family bar and restaurant after rehab for alcohol and pill addiction. She is keen to get back to proper work but the Buckleys don't think she is ready. She has also lost custody of her son, Diller (Brady Hepner) to her cruddy ex-husband and is trying to repair their relationship on the boy's weekend visits. Unfortunately, Diller is unforgiving of her catalogue of sins – which I suspect goes back to naming him 'Diller' – and progress is slow. Harlan gives Diller a job in the restaurant, putting Bree in near-permanent breach of a court order to stay 300 feet away from anyone she has nomenclaturally abused since infancy, so, you know, that's a worry. Meanwhile, again! On top of the multimillion dollar drug debt, Cane is tormented by the return of his first love/high school sweetheart/soulmate, who is a totally differently pretty brunette from his wife and also married. His wife is called Peyton (Danielle Campbell) and his former girlfriend is called Jenna (Humberly González). That's really all there is to say about them. Twists and reveals come thick and fast. You'll never guess who Bree is seeing on the down-low, or where they met! You'll never guess which character played by an established character actor whose part initially seems too small for him turns out to be a double-crossing major player in the whole caboodle! You'll never guess how efficient and uninspiring the script is! You'll never guess which issues it nods towards so you don't feel like you're entirely wasting your time! Toxic masculinity, generational trauma, the father-son bond, class divides and the problems of the one per cent in a coastal location? Oh, you CAN guess – well done! You get the idea. It is escapist summer nonsense with – God, I hope – no pretensions to being otherwise. Dive into the adult creek and wallow in nostalgia as the waves of absurdity sweep towards shore. The Waterfront is on Netflix now.

Julia Roberts posts rare photo of son Henry to celebrate his 18th birthday
shared a rare photo of her youngest child Henry to celebrate his 18th birthday with a sweet Instagram post on Wednesday. The Pretty Woman actress, 57 - who recently reunited with Notting Hill screenwriter 26 years after the beloved movie hit theaters - uploaded a throwback snap of the teen to ring in the special milestone. Henry could be seen wearing a green hoodie in the image when he was younger alongside a tribute penned by his famous mother. 'In the blink of a joyful eye this beacon of a boy is ⚡️ 18 ⚡️ I love you Henry,' Roberts wrote, as well as the hashtags '#goldenboy' and '#goldenbirthday.' The Oscar winner shares Henry, as well as twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, 20, with husband Daniel Moder - whom she tied the knot with in 2002. Comments in the post were limited, but some celebrities joined in on the birthday wishes. 'In the blink of a joyful eye this beacon of a boy is ⚡️ 18 ⚡️ I love you Henry,' Roberts wrote, as well as the hashtags '#goldenboy' and '#goldenbirthday' Jennifer Aniston wrote, 'Happy Birthday sweet Henry!' while Tom Hanks' wife Rita Wilson typed, 'Henry!!!!! Happy Birthday!!!!' Julia's three kids have made rare appearances on her social media accounts over the years. Last month in May, the star was seen posing for a memorable picture with her children in celebration of Mother's Day. Her husband had shared the image to his own Instagram page and captioned the photo with: 'Mothers make the coolest stuff. Love these guys.' And a few months earlier in April, Henry briefly stepped into the spotlight as he joined his mom to watch a Broadway show in NYC. The pair cheered on her close friend George Clooney in the production of Good Night And Good Luck at the the Winter Garden Theatre. Both Roberts and her son were spotted arriving to the venue as the actress also greeted fans awaiting outside. During an interview with Today in 2023, Julia opened up about her children now that they are older. 'I parent them the same way out of the house that I parented them in the house, which is, you know, "Are you getting enough sleep?" 'And "You sound like you're sick." And "Are you drinking tea?" And "Text me when you get home you get home (so) I can see that you're home safe and sound."' The star added, 'And I have an immense amount of appreciation for both of my older kids because they still allow me to be the same mom to them and it's not eye-rolling and there's a huge amount of understanding.' Julia also made rare comments about her husband Daniel during an interview with British Vogue last year. While on the topic of how she maintains her 'lustrous youth,' the actress gave a special shout out to Moder. 'Good genes, leading a life that is fulfilling, and I have said this - and I say it usually as kind of a joke - but I do believe in the love of a good man. 'I believe that my husband loves me and cares for me in a way that makes me feel deeply, deeply happy,' Roberts added. The actress has been keeping busy and recently whisked herself away to the U.K. to celebrate pal Scarlett Curtis' birthday - the daughter of screenwriter and director Richard Curtis. He notably wrote the screenplay for the 1999 film Notting Hill - which also starred Hugh Grant, Rhys Ifans, Hugh Bonneville and Emma Chambers. The film was directed by Roger Michell and raked in $363.8 million in the box office with a budget of $42 million. Curtis is known for writing other classic movies including Four Weddings And A Funeral, Bridget Jones's Diary and About Time. He also stepped behind the camera to director projects including Love Actually as well as About Time. Scarlett took to her Instagram stories to upload a photo of Julia and Richard as they enjoyed a special reunion at the birthday gathering. The two could be seen sitting next to each other holding a conversation as the actress draped her arm over the screenwriter's shoulders. Scarlett added text over the image which read: 'gonna go back to crying and feeling so loved i wanna burst.' During her time in the U.K., Roberts also was seen stopping by Soccer Aid at Old Trafford over the past weekend. She dressed for the occasion wearing a plain black shirt as well as black pants and a red blazer with soccer ball prints on the material.

Barry then joins Pugsley Addams (Isaac Ordonez), an incoming freshman at Nevermore, seen controlling lightning bolts with his hands, who Barry says is, 'still learning to control his outcast ability.' He adds that, 'whatever kind of outcast you are, you'll find a home at Nevermore, as she passes Bianca Barclay (Joy Sunday), who says, 'Because here, we celebrate what makes us unique.'
