Brad Pitt Claims Finalizing Years-Long Angelina Jolie Divorce Was Not That 'Major Of A Thing'
Brad Pitt has opened up about reaching the end of his protracted divorce from Angelina Jolie. The actor admitted he felt "relief" over the decision, but still doesn't consider it a "major" thing. Before finalizing the divorce in December, Pitt and Jolie had been in a nearly decade-long battle after they announced their separation in 2016. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's disputes included the separation of assets and custody issues, with the duo still currently feuding over their French vineyard, Château Miraval. After nearly a decade of court battles, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie finalized their divorce in December. The former Hollywood power couple had been locked in disputes over assets and custody, which took quite a toll on both sides and led to several media back-and-forths. Now, Pitt has revealed that he feels "relieved" that part of his life is over and he can officially move on. The actor made the revelation in his interview with GQ Magazine, which covered the creation of his new "F1" movie. However, despite how long the battle dragged on and the legal costs he likely incurred, Pitt said the finalization wasn't a huge deal to him, just something that was bound to happen eventually. "No, I don't think it was that major of a thing," the actor told the outlet. "Just something coming to fruition. Legally." Elsewhere in his conversation with the publication, Pitt reflected on how his "personal life is always in the news" and admitted that it has been a constant "annoyance" to deal with over the years. "It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way," the "Bullet Train" star said. "It's been an annoyance I've had to always deal with in different degrees, large and small, as I do the things I really want to do." "So, it's always been this kind of nagging time suck or waste of time, if you let it be that, I don't know. I don't know," Pitt added. Despite all of this attention, the actor thinks his life is "fairly contained," as he is surrounded by the best possible people. "It feels pretty warm and secure with my friends, with my loves, with my fam, with my knowledge of who I am, that, you know, it's like this fly buzzing around a little bit." In the meantime, Brad Pitt has found new love with jewelry executive Ines de Ramon, who was previously married to actor Paul Wesley. The pair began dating in 2022, three years after Pitt's legal separation from Angelina Jolie. After keeping their relationship private for several months, the couple began making public appearances together, including at premieres and other high-profile events. They also showed up together at the 2024 British Grand Prix, which Pitt explained in his GQ interview wasn't planned. "It's not that calculated," Pitt shared. "If you're living, oh my God, how exhausting would that be? If you're living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve." Early last year, the lovebirds finally moved in together, a move that further solidified their relationship. As they now approach their third anniversary, they are reportedly still going strong despite the rumors that Pitt's busy work schedule strained their relationship. "They're genuinely happy and very much in love," a source revealed, per the Daily Mail. They added, "Brad appreciates being with someone outside of Hollywood—it keeps things balanced, with no sense of rivalry or jealousy." Despite Pitt and de Ramon's blossoming romance, the possibility of marriage or kids seems unlikely for now, as the actor is yet to get over the emotional baggage from his previous marriage. "Brad is totally in love with Ines, but he doesn't want to go down the road of marriage and kids," an insider told the Daily Mail. They continued, "He's been burned badly by the divorce from Angelina and his kids wanting little if nothing to do with him. He's 61 and loving his life just the way it is."

‘Dealing With' Brad Pitt a ‘Headache' for Angelina Jolie as She Plans a Summer Getaway for 6 Kids
Angelina Jolie loves traveling with her six kids whenever she can and a source exclusively tells In Touch she's looking to whisk them all away for a family vacation as she continues to eye up an eventual move out of Los Angeles altogether. Even though parents Angie, 49, and Brad Pitt separated in 2016, Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 18 and twins Vivienne and Knox, 16, still pal around together as much as possible, but pretty much exclusively with their mom. 'As soon as the twins are done their semester Angelina wants them all to get out of L.A. for a good chunk of the summer,' the source says. 'Where they go is going to depend on her schedule with work. She may have a film over the summer, possibly in Europe, so depending on how things come together they may all relocate there temporarily for the summer.' Brad, 61, and the Salt actress famously feuded over their co-owned French winery, Château Miraval, and to this day Angie loves to spend time on the continent. She's filmed plenty there and makes sure the kids have tons of exposure to European culture. But the source notes, 'If she doesn't have a shoot, then she would love to go to their place in Cambodia.' The former A-list couple adopted their oldest, Maddox, from Cambodia and the country holds a special place in Angelina's heart. She's spent plenty of time there both as a United Nations rep and as a filmmaker working on her Khmer Rouge-era movie, First They Killed My Father. Ultimately, 'She will give the kids a chance to weigh in,' as to where they get to spend their summer. 'If she's not on location for work then they will get the final say on where they all go. That may pose something of a challenge because they've all got different interests, but New York and London are both high on everyone's list.' The destination may be up in the air, but one thing is for sure: dad Brad will be iced out of the family festivities. As In Touch previously reported, the Troy star's kids have been giving him the cold shoulder since the divorce due to his alleged abuse of their mother. Though Brad denied the accusations, documents released during the winery fight and Angie's own lawyers accused him of getting physical with her and their children on a private jet in 2016. A second source previously told In Touch that, 'Right now, all he can do is watch from a distance,' as his large brood moves on to succeed and enjoy family time without him, 'which is very hard.' The first source suggests that beyond hurt feelings, there may be even more complications with the family's vacation plans, considering Knox and Vivienne are still underage. 'Dealing with Brad and the legal aspect of it all will no doubt pose a headache, but [Angie]'s managed to pull it off every other year, so she's sure it will go ahead.'
