Bono concert

The new girl, Ines de Ramon. Like Emily R., she just split from her husband. Was married to Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley for three years until they announced their split in September. De Ramon is "head of wholesale at Anita Ko Jewelry, which has celebrity customers including Kourtney Kardashian and Hailey Bieber" and "sources tell DailyMail.com that she is a member of his team." What is being a "member of his team"? On his payroll?

They arrived together. She then left to go and sit in a separate area. They were not photographed together again and he left by himself. He essentially gave her a ride to the concert. Reminiscent of when he shared a plane ride with a married German model to Le Castellet airport. He knew full well that the tabloids would pounce. He tapped her shoulder after introducing her to Sean Penn and then quickly swung his hand back and into his pocket, and again after introducing her to Cindy Crawford. He gave Ines a shoulder - arm goodbye without looking at her. In the range of hugs he gave that evening it was probably the most detached -- with the one to Jimmy Page being the most effusive. Enough to tease but with room for deniability. More than enough to make her his latest date when there were never any photos or sightings of him with Emily.

Brad gave Cindy Crawford a peck on the cheek and a hug but Cindy is obviously closer to Sean Penn than to Brad. They shared a much warmer embrace. Brad initially just extended his left hand to Rande Gerber before they shared a hug. Gerber is a business partner and close friend of George Clooney's but it appears he and Crawford are just social friends of Brad's.

Photographers called out to him when he arrived trailing Ines by a few meters. They were close enough to the paps for the mic to pick out his voice talking to event security. Once inside, there was a lot of hugging -- except Ines who didn't appear to know anyone in Brad's circle and didn't seem to join in the conversation he was having with Crawford, Gerber et al.

People Nov. 16, 2022

A source close to the Swiss 32-year-old industry tastemaker tells PEOPLE that she and Pitt, 58, "have been dating for a few months."

And according to the source, "Brad is really into" de Ramon, who separated from her husband, Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley, earlier this year.

"They met through a mutual friend. She is very nice," the insider adds.

A source close to Pitt confirms to PEOPLE that the two "recently started dating," but notes, "It's not an exclusive relationship."

"Ines is cute, fun and energetic. She has a great personality. Brad enjoys spending time with her," the latter insider says.

A rep for Pitt had no comment on the relationship when reached by PEOPLE.

People, October 4, 2022

As Brad Pitt and Emily Ratajkowski continue to spend time together, an industry source says in the new issue of PEOPLE that the actor is "having fun" getting to know the model/actress.

PEOPLE previously reported that the Oscar-winning Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood actor, 58, and Ratajkowski, 31, have been hanging out in recent weeks. Now, multiple insiders are giving a clearer picture of the casual romance.

A Ratajkowski source says the My Body author is not looking to jump into a serious romance after separating from her husband of four years, Uncut Gems producer Sebastian Bear-McLard, in July. She filed for divorce in September.

"The split was very rough for her," says the source. "It was unexpected and devastating." Which is why her dalliance with Pitt, whom she met through mutual friends, according to insiders, is so sweet right now. "It's the perfect timing right now. There is nothing like Brad Pitt cheering you up," continues the source. "She wants to get to know him better."

The feeling is mutual. A film source says Ratajkowski "has the vibes that Brad likes. She's and bright, articulate." She's also a fellow art lover like Pitt, says the insider.

"They have a lot to talk about and always have a great time when they hang out," says a Pitt source. "There is an attraction, but nothing serious is going on. They have had a few dates and stay in touch when they don't see each other."

Ines is of course "not an exclusive relationship" because he "had a few dates" with Ratajkowski. Ratajkowski was of course "nothing serious" because in reality she was dating Pete Davidson. In the meantime, these dates may help lessen the number of women pressing tightly against him when asking for photos with him. And Martha Stewart wants to be a member of his team, or whatever team Ines is part of:

“Well, if I could meet — I was asked this question once — I’ve been sort of fascinated with this very handsome young boy on Instagram. He’s called Brad Pitt,”

“They’re fan pages, I guess, I don’t know. But whatever it is, he looks better and better as the years go by,” she giggled. “I just sort of melt when I look at those pictures. I mean, he is so cute!”

Fallon shared that he “loves” that she loves the “Fight Club” star, to which Stewart agreed, “I do. I do.”

Stewart has seemingly moved on from her most recent crush, Pete Davidson. Last month, she shared that she would definitely go on a date with the “Saturday Night Live” star. She called Davidson “sort of cute” and “a good guy.”

Stewart seemingly has the same taste as Emily Ratajkowski, who was rumored to have had a fling with Pitt before moving on with Davidson.
