After eight years of legal battles, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have finally settled their divorce, bringing closure to one of Hollywood’s most high-profile splits. Sources reveal Pitt is now ready to embrace a new chapter with his 32-year-old partner, Ines, and the possibility of marriage in 2025.

An insider close to the situation described Pitt as “relieved” to move forward, claiming that the prolonged process was largely due to Jolie “dragging her feet.” Jolie’s attorney, James Simon, acknowledged her exhaustion from the drawn-out dispute, adding that she has focused on healing and protecting her family throughout the ordeal.

The couple finalized their divorce just before New Year’s Eve, a milestone that insiders say paves the way for Pitt’s plans to marry Ines. “Brad is serious about starting fresh with Ines,” shared a source, noting that she has brought stability and happiness into his life.

Ines, an entrepreneur in the jewelry industry, has reportedly taken significant measures to maintain the couple’s privacy. She insists that her relationship with Pitt is off-limits for discussion and has required business associates to sign non-disclosure agreements to prevent leaks.

While Pitt’s relationship with his six children remains complicated, sources say he hopes the finalization of the divorce will help mend strained bonds. Jolie and Pitt share three biological children—Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16—as well as adopted children Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, and Zahara, 19. However, reports suggest some of the children have distanced themselves from Pitt, even removing his last name.

Beyond the divorce, unresolved disputes linger, including the battle over Château Miraval, the French vineyard the couple once co-owned. Pitt alleges Jolie sold her share to the Stoli Group without his consent, escalating tensions. Both parties appear willing to take the vineyard dispute to court if necessary.

The divorce’s conclusion has also stirred conversations about Pitt’s romantic future. Friends, including actor George Clooney, have reportedly given their approval for Pitt’s relationship with Ines. “She’s grounded, no-nonsense, and exactly the kind of partner Brad needs,” shared a confidant.

Insiders hint that an engagement could be on the horizon in 2025, marking a symbolic end to Pitt’s past relationships with Jolie and Jennifer Aniston. “It’s a chance for Brad to officially move forward,” a source explained.

Despite the controversies surrounding their split, Jolie has refrained from publicly criticizing Pitt, focusing instead on advocating for her family. “She encourages her children to prioritize meaningful change over airing grievances,” said an insider.

For both Jolie and Pitt, the end of their eight-year saga signifies a turning point. While Jolie continues to seek light after a turbulent period, Pitt looks ahead to building a future with Ines and, perhaps, tying the knot once again.
