Brad Pitt was seen for the first time after the finalization of his divorce from Angelina Jolie

Brad Pitt was recently spotted for the first time after officially ending his long divorce from Angelina Jolie.

The former power couple, who were married for just two years but lived together for nearly a decade, have settled their divorce after a grueling eight-year legal battle.

While Brad Pitt has remained private throughout his divorce proceedings, insiders recently revealed that his decision to end the case may have something to do with his plans for the future.

For the first time since the finalization of the divorce, Pitt was seen on the street.

The Hollywood icon exuded casual cool in his uniform, sporting a rugged new look complete with a thick gray beard, silver sunglasses, a white hat and a bag bearing his initials. Check the photos received TMZ.

His exit comes after sources claim Pitt was desperate to get things over with as he plans to get married next year. “They plan to get married next year,” the insider said Daily Mail. “Brad settled down because he wants his kids to be by his side for his new marriage going forward. It is reported that Ines also wants to start a family and urged him to resolve everything as soon as possible.’

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie first met on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in 2003, where their on-screen chemistry quickly turned into a real-life romance. The couple started dating soon after and eventually tied the knot in August 2014.

Their marriage, however, was short-lived. Just two years later, in 2016, Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their separation.

According to sources, the divorce decision brought a sense of relief to Pete, who was tired of the drawn-out process. Documents received in TMZ show that the settlement did not include agreements regarding the couple’s six children, although only their twins, Knox and Vivienne, remain minors.

Angelina’s attorney James Simon shared a statement at the time, reflecting on the years-long ordeal.

“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all the possessions they shared with Mr. Pitt, and since then she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family. This is just part of a long process that began eight years ago. To be honest, Angelina is exhausted, but relieved that this part is over.’

The ongoing battle between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt over their joint ownership of the French winery Chateau Miraval may soon go to court. Despite the final divorce after an eight-year legal battle, the former couple are still at loggerheads over the prestigious estate, which has been hotly contested for years.

The source also revealed the impact of the conflict on Jolie and Pitt’s children, saying: “The children have grown up seeing that some people have so much power and privilege that their voices don’t matter. Their pain doesn’t count.”

Despite encouraging children to be more open about protecting themselves, Jolie focused on broader advocacy. “She’s reminding them to focus on changing laws, not public stories,” the insider added.

Brad Pitt’s love life is back in the headlines as the actor is currently dating 35-year-old jeweler Ines de Ramon.

The couple first sparked relationship rumors when they were spotted together at a Bono concert in November 2022. Since then, their bond has grown stronger, and de Ramon has reportedly brought a sense of stability and positivity to Pete’s life.

Insiders close to the couple have revealed that de Ramon has been a big influence on Pitt, particularly helping him move on from his tumultuous divorce from Angelina Jolie.
