According to sources, Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon share some news: ‘They have something special’

Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon have set their sights on a future together.

A source close to the 60-year-old actor tells PEOPLE that he and de Ramon “are serious about their relationship and making plans for the future.”

“It started out as a fun and casual relationship, but after moving in together, they realized that they have something special,” the insider said of the pair, who started living together in February.

According to a source close to Pitt, who has been filming the Formula One blockbuster F1 this year, work has also brought him delight. “He’s grateful that Ines enjoys traveling and can accompany him on location for work,” continues the source, stressing that his absence from his children “is still very difficult for him.”

Pitt and de Ramon, 34, flew to Venice, Italy, at the end of August to attend Wolfs’ international premiere, which also served as the couple’s red carpet debut. The film, which co-stars Pitt’s longtime pal George Clooney, is currently streaming on Apple TV+ and showing in select cinemas. Pitt and de Ramon also went on a double date with George and Amal Clooney before returning to the United States.

“She’s a wonderful lady.” She’s laid back, low maintenance, and has no drama,” adds the source about de Ramon, a jewelry designer for the Anita Ko Jewelry line.

In the past month, fans have spotted Pitt and de Ramon on date nights in New York City and Los Angeles. The couple, dating since late 2022, made their most recent appearance at EBMRF’s star-studded Rock4EB charity event in Malibu, Calif., on September 21. The event raised money for research and the development of a cure for the rare skin disorder epidermolysis bullosa.

A source told PEOPLE earlier this summer that Pitt and de Ramon’s relationship is “serious,” and that “things have been amazing since they moved in together.”

“It’s more of a serious relationship than just dating,” the insider explained, adding that Brad adores many aspects of her. “She’s excellent for him.”

In 2022, PEOPLE first spotted Pitt and de Ramon together at a Bono performance. At the time, a source close to de Ramon told PEOPLE that the pair had been dating “for a few months” and that they had met through a common acquaintance.
