It turns out that Brad Pitt was waiting for his court battle with Angelina Jolie to conclude before finally proposing to his beloved Ines de Ramon, according to the Daily Mail.

According to an insider, the 61-year-old actor has big plans for 2025. “They are planning to get married next year, and Brad has made some concessions because he wants his children to be close by before his new marriage takes place,” the source revealed.

And it seems the 31-year-old Ines may have added a bit of pressure: “It’s clear that Ines wants children too, and she’s urging him to sort everything out as soon as possible.”
