On Saturday (May 11), Brad, 60, was spotted walking alone on a Santa Barbara, California beach.

Ines apparently came over 2 weeks ago without a vest or jacket and had to borrow his.

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.

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.



dm, April 11, 2024

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"

Outstanding Performer of the Year Award - 39th Annual Santa Barbara International Film Festival



As Pitt appeared at Santa Barbara's Arlington Theatre to present the Oscar nominee with the prize, he joked that the duo have a "couple of things in common," including "being a movie superstar and also a name."

He went on to note that he knew there was something special about Cooper after watching his work in The Hangover.

Pitt then spoke about Cooper's 2018 directorial debut, A Star Is Born, which the actor also starred in and wrote the screenplay for.

"[It's] a film that's been made a few times, it's been made really well, so the bar is so high, and yet he's able to bring in his performance where he's able to play drunk when he breaks down and still keep an eye on the crew to see the time when to know that he's got the tape and you can move on."

"To do that really, really well is nothing short of perfect," added Pitt.

Commenting on Cooper's most recent work, Pitt called Maestro "a masterwork" and described one scene in particular between Cooper and his costar Carey Mulligan, who plays the late composer-conductor's wife Felicia Montealegre, as "alive, kinetic and so natural."

"This is really really, really difficult to achieve," said Pitt. "And yes, it takes great actors but it also takes great construction."

"Now I'm not gonna say I know for certain what's at the heart of Bradley's brilliance, but I am going to take a stab at it," continued Pitt. "What I think it is is his voracious love for this little thing we call the human experience and all its struggles and joys and messiness. My man's in it, he doesn't run from any evidence and I think it's that that he infused into each frame that he puts up on the screen."

Pitt rounded out his speech by sharing his hopes for Cooper's success at the upcoming Oscars, where Maestro is up for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Mulligan for Best Actress, and Cooper for Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay (shared with co-writer Josh Singer).

"He's been nominated 12 times and I really, really hope that this is his year, because he's willing, but if it's not, it's okay, everyone knows it's just a matter of time," said Pitt, calling Cooper "the one and only Bradley," before going on to joke, "And truly Brad is okay, he's fine. He's used to it. He's a Philadelphia Eagles fan."

"I didn't like what you said there," joked Cooper as he accepted the award from Pitt.

Going on to share how movies have "changed his life" and "kept me alive," Cooper said of his career, "It's just such a privilege. I can't believe I get to do it and and I'm so privileged and I've been so blessed."

A different angle from what hello has.  Apparently from the same row.

hello

Brad Pitt, 60, sits hand in hand with girlfriend Ines de Ramon, 33, for rare date night


Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon were the epitome of elegance and affection as they attended the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in California on Thursday night, where they were caught sitting hand in hand as they watched Bradley Cooper accept his honor at the 2024 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.

Brad and Ines sat with their hands together
(This photo seems odd.  His wrist would be resting on her fingers.  You don't see her forearm.  Almost like the fingers were photshopped in.)
Brad whispers in girlfriend Ines' ear.  
(He is undoubtedly saying something to her but the more natural way would have been to simply lean in without arching his head. This way, there is no angle where he appears to be kissing her.)

HELLO! saw the pair enter the Arlington Theater as the lights went down ahead of the retrospective, where they sat in the third row behind Carey Mulligan, and where Ines kept her hand on Brad's thigh. The two looked comfortable with each other, and as they left before the end of the event, Brad guided her out with his hand tightly clasped with Ines.

The woman in a black coat is not Ines.  She can be seen later in the video and may be with SBIFF


Ines is not visible so she must be several feet ahead of Brad.




The woman seen earlier




hello (cont'd)
The couple, having recently celebrated their first anniversary of togetherness, has become an inseparable pair, with Ines reportedly forming strong bonds with Brad's close-knit circle of friends.

Their appearance at LACMA's 12th annual Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles was a highlight, where, despite not posing for photographs together, their affection and joy were evident to all around them.

Brad and Ines's relationship blossoms in the aftermath of his separation from Angelina Jolie, marking a new chapter in Brad's personal life amid the backdrop of a highly publicized custody dispute over their six children.


people

In photos published by HELLO!, Pitt and de Ramon, 34, can be seen sitting next to one another in the audience, directly behind Cooper, 49, and his Maestro costar Carey Mulligan.

Pitt donned a dark-brown suit for the evening at the Arlington Theater, while his girlfriend looked glam as she rocked a high-neck teal halter dress. One photo showed the Bullet Train actor leaning in to a smiling de Ramon, appearing to whisper something in her ear.

A source who attended the event tells PEOPLE that Pitt "was very low-key last night and skipped the red carpet during arrivals," and when he showed up to honor Cooper, "the crowd went crazy with excitement."

"He seemed to be in very good spirits onstage when he presented the award to Bradley and poked fun at his friend, joking that he was just here for the free trip to Santa Barbara," the source adds.


People left out hello's numerous claims about hands: "hand in hand", "hands together", "hand on Brad's thigh", and "hand tightly clasped with Ines". The supposed photo of the hands looks odd, while there is no photo of the latter and they remained several feet apart as they exited.
