Brad Pitt finds comfort in Ines de Ramon during emotional Thanksgiving

Brad Pitt is grateful to have his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon, by his side during this emotional Thanksgiving.

Having to deal with mixed emotions as he faces his first holiday season without his mother, Pitt is leaning on de Ramon, as per the source reported by PEOPLE.

“The holidays are always a more emotional time for Brad,” the source said, referring to the Oscar winner’s complicated relationship with his six children with ex-wife Angelina Jolie.

“With some of the older kids distancing themselves and dropping Pitt from their last name, of course it adds another layer of sadness,” the insider claimed.

The source further added that Pitt has strived to be a devoted father, and that’s never changed. Thus, this festive season will be difficult for him as he has a tense dynamic with the kids.

Moreover, the F1 actor is suffering from the loss of his mother, Jane Pitt, who died in August. Though Pitt has found warm support in his relationship with the jewellery industry executive, de Ramon.

“At the same time, he feels very grateful to have Ines in his life,” the source added. “Her support and love mean the world to him.”
