Who is Ines De Ramon?
De Ramon has been the Vice President of Anita Ko Jewelry in Los Angeles since January 2020. Antia Ko Jewelry is worn by the great and the good of the showbiz world including Michelle Obama, Meghan Markle and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. De Ramon herself has even been spotted wearing a B pendant, with many believing that the B is a tribute to her latest love Brad.
Her background in jewellery includes jobs at Christie's and Swiss jeweller De Grisogono. LinkedIn revealed De Ramon graduated with a bachelor's degree in business administration from University of Geneva in 2013.
In addition to her career credentials, De Ramon speaks five different languages (French, English, Spanish, German and Italian).
Divorces
As well as debuting his new relationship at the Venice Film Festival, Pitt avoided running into his ex Angelina Jolie - who was in tears at the Maria biopic premiere last week. Jolie took centre stage of headlines last week amid a flurry of excitement that she could be tipped for Oscar's glory for her portrayal of Maria Callas.
It's been eight years but Pitt and Jolie - who share six children Maddox, 23, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16 - haven't been able to finalise their divorce. As well as their ongoing divorce, there is a separate lawsuit over the ownership of the French winery, Château Miraval.

Pitt's girlfriend Ramon also has been through her own divorce after she split from her husband Paul Wesley in September 2022. At the time of their split, a rep said: "The decision to separate is mutual and occurred five months ago."
Months after their public split, The Vampire Diaries star Wesley filed for divorce in February 2023 and he cited "irreconcilable differences". They had been married in 2019 but their marriage broke down after three years and their divorce was finalised earlier this summer.
It's getting serious
Ahead of Pitt and De Ramon's red carpet debut in Venice, there were reports that their relationship was "getting serious". PEOPLE reported in February that the couple had moved in together at the actor's new home in Los Angeles after Pitt sold his Los Feliz mansion which he had for 30 years.
In July, De Ramon walked hand-in-hand with Pitt at the F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain at Silverstone Circuit driving everyone wild. The jewellery expert gave him support while Pitt filmed his new movie F1, which is expected to be released in 2025.
The man behind Top Gun: Maverick, Joseph Kosinski, is directing the F1 movie. Pitt's character Sonny Hayes is an F1 driver in the 90s who has had a horrible crash and disappears from racing. Taking a break from filming, Pitt revealed he was having fantastic fun. "It’s great to be here. Having such a laugh; time of my life," he told Sky Sports.
