It would look much sweeter if he looked at her and didn't turn away as she gave him a hug on the deck of the yacht. But she's doing her part.

The only big star who drove himself to the party.  If he used his custom SUV, no one can see inside.   He wanted them to be seen and clearly photographed together. 

So why did he have his PR tell People: 
"He and Ines arrived together but did their own thing."
It's a detail they didn't need to share, but he wants people to know that while they arrived together, they didn't stay together during the party.

It undermines "they're incredibly happy together".  It somewhat reinforces
"Ines has a strong sense of independence and enjoys catching up with her L.A. friends. She's using this time to recharge."
Independence while he's out of town filming (even though they touted "they love traveling together and supporting each other's careers.”). But doing her "own thing" i. e. hanging out with people other than Brad in Leo's birthday party when she is there as Brad's date?
"Brad was in the front patio of the party the entire night.  He was in a great mood, was super social and greeting everyone."
Nothing on where Ines was or what she was doing. 

You could say he was in a great mood doing his own thing without her. Or put another way, his great mood had nothing to do with her.

That may have been the script. Ines is an actor taking directions.

The photo op is to show they're still together -- for the cameras, the added info they've been doling out serves to suggest that looks can be deceiving.

That PR gives unreliable info.

And that Ines lately and visibly hasn't been enjoying what she signed up for.
The Moneyball star and the L.A.-based jewelry industry executive, 31, left the party together in a gray Porsche with Pitt at the wheel.
They arrived together, all things considered, of course they would leave together.





Brad Pitt and Ines de Roman had a star-studded date night!

The pair attended Leonardo DiCaprio's 50th birthday celebration at the Titanic star's Los Angeles home on Saturday, Nov. 9. A source tells PEOPLE that Pitt, 60, was in good spirits during the party.

"Brad was in the front patio of the party the entire night," the source says. "He was in a great mood, was super social and greeting everyone. He and Ines arrived together but did their own thing."

Leonardo DiCaprio celebrated his 50th birthday on Saturday night with a star-studded, private party.

A spy told Page Six: “The night kicked off with an intimate dinner catered by Nobu,” and that, “the scene was nothing short of star-studded” with lots of the star’s longtime collaborators.

Guests spotted at the celebration, we hear, included DiCaprio’s “Catch Me If You Can” director Steven Spielberg and his wife, Kate Capshaw, as well as “Killers of the Flower Moon” star Robert De Niro and “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” actor Brad Pitt — who arrived early to join the celebration and attended with his girlfriend, Ines De Ramon.

"Ines has a strong sense of independence and enjoys catching up with her L.A. friends. She's using this time to recharge."  Pitt “likes her independence.”

They were last seen together at a charity event in Malibu on Sept. 22.  He was at the Dodgers game in L.A. Oct 6 -7 with Thomas Houseago and then David Fincher. 

They've been in L.A for weeks. She has had a lot of time to catch up with her friends.  Recharge from?

He was filming during the Mexican Grand Prix in Mexico City Oct. 27 and in Oceano Dunes, north of Santa Barbara, Nov. 6.

"Each other's biggest cheerleaders". "They value the balance they've found."

"She loves how driven he is." "They love traveling together and supporting each other's careers."

Siri/Grammarly, write some upbeat nonspecific relationship phrases and use "love" in a nonromantic sense.




A source close to the actor tells PEOPLE the couple are “each other's biggest cheerleaders.” The source adds of the Academy Award winner, 60, and de Ramon, 34, “It's clear they're in it for the long haul.”

"They are incredibly happy together," the source says of the couple, who have been dating since 2022. In February, the actor and Anita Ko jewelry designer moved in together.

And as Pitt continues to film the Formula 1 film F1 in Mexico, they have found a dynamic that works for them. “She's fully supportive and knows how important this project is to him," the source says.

"Ines has a strong sense of independence and enjoys catching up with her L.A. friends. She's using this time to recharge,” the source says, adding that Pitt “likes her independence.” Meanwhile, “she loves how driven he is.”

“They value the balance they've found,” the insider tells PEOPLE.

While Pitt films all over the world, the source notes that “they love traveling together and supporting each other's careers.”

On Saturday, Sept. 21, the Wolfs actor and jewelry designer stepped out at EBMRF's star-studded Rock4EB event, which raises funds for research and to find a cure for the rare skin condition epidermolysis bullosa.







Note the difference between his body language with Courtney Cox above and with Ines below.  He's holding Courtney much closer.  He isn't dating Courtney.

But Brillstein power manager Andrea Pett-Joseph is not one lacking intel. Her son, 12-year-old Brandon Joseph, has it and thus, his skin is as fragile as a butterfly's wing. (The slightest touch can cause tearing, blistering and bleeding. Growth can be stunted while limbs, including hands, may be disfigured.) Pett-Joseph and husband Paul Joseph started the charity and leaned on friends, family and colleagues to launch the Rock4EB! event. This year, it opened to the media for the first time, a move designed to increase awareness and, eventually, funds for research.

I meet the sculptor Thomas Houseago on a sunny August day at his outdoor studio on an oceanside cliff in Malibu. He arrives late and a little manic, bursting from his car in a mauve sweatshirt and lavender sweatpants, his hair a tuft of yellow blond, rattling off apologies and promising that he is prepared to talk about “everything.” Over the next six hours, he does.

Houseago takes me on a tour of the dozens of giant sculptures he’s made over the past year: redwood owls he carved with a chain saw, an eight-foot-tall plaster-and-wood Minotaur, some kind of Goya-inspired child-eating Cyclops with an erection the size of a sub sandwich. There are also some pleasant domestic still lifes: a sunflower, a coffee pot. In a few days, many of the works would be shipped to New York, where, on September 9, the artist was to open his first solo show in the city in a decade. It takes up three floors of the Lévy Gorvy Dayan gallery off Madison Avenue.

Houseago, who is 52, has never been an easygoing person and never made easygoing art. “It’s usually men with some unhealed trauma who gravitate to my work,” he says. Men like him. He grew up poor in Leeds, England. There are tales of drunkenness and drug use, bankruptcy and despair, in his history. He tried to work it all out in his art. Early on, as an art student, inspired by Chris Burden, he set himself on fire and photographed it. He became a success when his monumental primitivist Baby was a standout at the 2010 Whitney Biennial. Soon after, he joined two mega-galleries: Hauser & Wirth and Gagosian.

This exhibition was originally supposed to appear at Gagosian, but when Houseago visited the 24th Street gallery to plan it out last year, the space filled him with dread. “Walk into Gagosian or Zwirner and tell me, Is that a warm environment? See the people at the desks? You see the terror in their eyes,” he says. He also felt personally abandoned by Larry Gagosian, who he says hasn’t returned his calls in a decade — ever since he staged a show with Hauser in 2014. Houseago describes the art world in the language of trauma therapy. Gagosian, for example, is a stand-in for his “absent dad.” He has often found himself thinking, “I need to talk to Larry; he’s gonna save me.” Then he remembers, “No, he’s not. He doesn’t give a fuck. He’s on a boat somewhere.”

He had fantasies of physically attacking Andrew Fabricant, who was Gagosian’s COO at the time they discussed doing this show there. “He was talking about art like he owned it,” he says. “I go very quickly to Leeds, 1976,” when he feels a man is trying to dominate him. “I’m like, I could probably tear your eyeballs out with this pen.”

“He’s a very angry man with a lot of issues, and I wish him well,” Fabricant tells me.

Houseago insists he’s getting better now. His most recent troubles date back to when his father died in mid-2019. He flew from L.A., where he’d been living since 2003, to Leeds. When he saw the body, he felt first elated, then overcome with rage. He says he started to unravel after that. On New Year’s Eve, “I beat myself up with a rock,” he says. “I had this, like, demon inside me, and that was the worst, and it’s very primitive how I hurt myself.” After that, he quit making art while he tried to rebuild himself.

He spent 70 days in an Arizona recovery center, undergoing EMDR, somatic healing, and quantitative EEG brain mapping. The people he sought help from decided he had preverbal trauma; through his somatic work, he became convinced that he’d endured sexual abuse as a baby.

His treatment manager had moved him into a place near his own in Malibu. As the lease was running out, Houseago felt desperate to stay — he’d found solace by swimming in the ocean and participating in a men’s support group along with Brad Pitt, an admirer of his work whom he had befriended during the actor’s very public divorce from and custody battle with Angelina Jolie. “His life exploded,” Houseago says. He sympathized with Pitt’s struggle and, in 2018, “literally took Brad into my shelter — like, he hid in my studio for two years.” (According to Houseago, it was thanks to the support-group work they did that Pitt decided to play an “assassin in recovery” in Bullet Train.)

Houseago wasn’t sure he could afford to stay in Malibu. Then one pandemic day he ran into his friend Leonardo DiCaprio — whom he now calls his “fairy godbrother” — walking his dogs on the beach. They realized they lived just two houses apart and began hanging out, often discussing art. (DiCaprio is a collector, and his parents, also art enthusiasts, named him after Leonardo da Vinci.)

DiCaprio heard about a house in Malibu whose owner was annoyed with the fussy tenant. DiCaprio, in Houseago’s telling, told the owner, “You should ask him to leave. I’ve got this guy you’re gonna love. He’s got no money, so you’re gonna have to do, like, half or a third of the rent you’d normally do.” And apparently because it was DiCaprio, they agreed. “He’s got that golden key to everything,” Houseago says. “Everyone wants to love him.” Houseago now lives there with his two teenage children and brought on DiCaprio’s former assistant as a studio director.

“Why am I friends with all these super-fucking-sonically famous people?” he wonders aloud. Perhaps it’s because they “can drop their armor” with him, he says. He’s interested in the vulnerabilities beneath their “superhero” façades.

Today, Pitt, Houseago, and another friend, Flea, have matching green-triangle tattoos. Houseago says the triangle represents the three poles of trauma healing in his therapist’s model. On a sheet of paper, he draws a green triangle overlapping a red triangle, which in turn represents maladaptive responses to trauma. “We all call each other out because it’s very easy to slip back into this,” he says, tapping his pen on the red triangle. “There’s a commitment among a group of people, like, ‘Let’s try and take care of each other.’”

Besides, these guys are more his speed. “I’d much rather be on a movie set or backstage at a rock concert any day than an art fair or an auction house.”

“You sit and talk to the people at the auction house, and they’re like, ‘I love KAWS,’” he went on. Then, “you go to their homes and you’re like, Oh no, you’re the tastemakers.”

For this show, he reconnected with Dominique Lévy, a dealer he had previously ditched for Gagosian. She had since co-founded Lévy Gorvy Dayan in the mansion built for the Wildenstein dynasty of art dealers. When Houseago saw it, he knew it was perfect. He and Lévy patched things up. “I fell in love with him all over again,” Lévy later told me. “There’s nothing more beautiful than a powerful vulnerability and a calm strength. He’s like the samurai.”

“I was able to witness firsthand the process that Thomas took on in creating this body of work,” DiCaprio tells me via his publicist. “Stemming from the reckoning of his past, and his childhood trauma healing, I got to watch his artistry slowly materialize. It was like bearing witness to a man’s metamorphosis from a self-realized Dante’s Inferno. Even though the work was rooted in an apocalyptic darkness, it simultaneously embraced a rebirth, and a newfound appreciation of the beauty of the entire world around him. He was frenetic, and possessed, pushing himself every day, to be brave enough, to risk purging everything he had to give as an artist.”

Houseago’s vision for the show would unfold like his own psychological transformation did, starting with hopelessness on the ground floor — home to the most monstrous creatures, representing abusers from the viewpoint of a child — and moving toward hope at the top floor, where a 113-foot-long tapestry mural of a Malibu sunrise wraps around the walls. Which isn’t to say he thinks people should necessarily buy any of it: “Hey, I’ve got like a half-ton piece of wood here I’ve carved — oh, with a huge erection.”

The couple stepped out for a date night in New York City on Sunday, Sept. 8 in head-turning outfits that showed off their own personal styles.

Pitt, 60, kept his top-half breezy in a white button down shirt which he left partially unbuttoned, showing off some layered necklaces — including a diamond "I" pendant as a sweet nod to de Ramon.

The storyline is of an old race driver seeking to be competitive again by flaunting safety. Will this storyline interest F1 fans? Other moviegoers?

He is hawking Miraval wine and Garders Gin (and Ines de Ramon). 

Is this a contractual obligation?  After repeatedly discussing his stint with Alcoholics Anonymous and proclaiming his sobriety, the take-away here is that promoting his interests in wine and gin are more important than staying on message about remaining sober. Profit trumps family. The subliminal message, whether or not it's true for him, is it's OK to fall off the wagon.

With his well known alcohol-infused melt down and the on-going problems it created, his effectiveness as an endorser of anything alcoholic is compromised. Having him pose holding the bottles seems deperate.
Are sales foundering? This does not help anyone.

His "sources'" repeated denials of the plane incident to protect his name may be why he is estranged from the kids and why they are dropping Pitt.



@ambersofiajones watching f1 with brad pitt was not on my 2024 bingo card let me tell you that 😭😭 such a surreal weekend!! #bradpitt #f1presenter #f1 #motorsport #britishgrandprix #silverstone #f1tiktok ♬ Reem - Joey Essex

Santa Barbara


The beach in front of his house in Santa Barbara is private, secluded, and hard to reach. He has no next-door neighbors, and there is no easy access to the beach except through his property.  


Instagram from his niece
2022


Vogue 2015






Previous pap photos of Santa Barbara were taken from offshore boats or a hovering helicopter.


2013


The presence of paparazzi, overhead or offshore, would normally be anathema to him.  

This time, the pap was allowed access on the beach itself and took photos and a lengthy video right in front of them.  Unlike in the above photo, where the kids eyed the paparazzi who were offshore, Brad and Ines acted oblivious as they walked toward the photographer who was snapping away.

Perhaps more tellingly, the dogs didn't disturb the pap as he moved around, shooting different angles. The isolated beach is their territory and the dogs don't get to see many strangers if at all. They looked directly at the camera, but did not bark or approach or appear curious.  It was evidently someone the dogs already knew, not an intruder—quite possibly not paparazzi at all.  Someone who could have taken close, hi-res shots.

This was a not-so-subtly staged photo shoot.  Some acting required.  No trespassing necessary.


He is not wearing any signet ring but perhaps a familiar pendant.

The couple were spotted on a morning walk at a beach in Santa Barbara, California, together on Monday, April 29.

The actor, 60, and the jewelry executive, 34, enjoyed a idyllic getaway as they spent time in Santa Barbara together and enjoyed their morning coffee while walking on the shore.

This comes after she was seen on an outing with a male pal in Los Angeles on the same day following exclusive DailyMail.com reports that her and Pitt's relationship has been strained by his ongoing divorce from his ex, Angelina Jolie, 48.

Ines lit up a cigarette while talking on the phone and walking her beloved rescue dog Gregory aka 'Greggy' near the Santa Monica Pier on Wednesday.

Ines reunited with three members of her family visiting from Madrid.

The detail that she "reunited with three members of her family visiting from Madrid" could only have come from her.  She talks to the paps.   "Male pal" avoids overtly calling him her "boyfriend," but the post suggests it. The suggestion may or may not have come from anything she said or did as relayed by the paps.

This may be the reason the Santa Barbara photo shoot was booked.  Their story still needs to stay up, but she may be chafing at the bit.

She is said to be a licensed nutrition coach, an important distinction from a health coach since she smokes.








She zips up her hitherto open vest.

His white and brown dog likes her; stayed more on her side than his. Curiously, she didn't bring along "her beloved rescue dog Gregory aka 'Greggy'" so he missed out on a day to run free and have fun on the beach.  Her dog and his dogs are apparently not buddies or they would have all been looking forward to a play date.  Also telling.












With their backs turned and further away, they stayed a foot or more apart. There was no holding or assisting walking through the surf, sand, and rocks.  The whole point of including the clip in the video may be to show the shoot was "Public but D deniable and A ambiguous"
