Brad Pitt and his girlfriend Ines de Ramon caused a stir on social media after a seemingly awkward red carpet moment at the world premiere of F1 in Times Square on Monday.
A circulating video clip shows de Ramon leaning in for a kiss, only for Pitt to turn away to greet another woman, sparking online chatter and renewed speculation about the couple’s dynamic.
Shortly after, another video from the premiere's reception appeared to show de Ramon being excluded from a group photo. As Pitt stood centre-stage posing with co-stars and event attendees, de Ramon remained off to the side. While she was within view, Pitt didn’t motion for her to join the shot and quickly turned back to the camera after glancing her way. Some fans saw this as a snub, fuelling theories that their relationship is largely for publicity. One user wrote, “He didn’t even signal her to join the group — it’s like she wasn’t part of it at all.”
Others defended the moment, noting that de Ramon was seen hugging another woman shortly after the photo was taken, possibly indicating she was simply distracted or opted out voluntarily.
Despite the viral reaction, Pitt and de Ramon did share subtle moments of affection on the red carpet, holding hands and exchanging smiles. Pitt, 61, wore a navy suit with a pastel shirt, while de Ramon, 32, opted for a sheer halter top and feathered floor-length skirt.
The couple, linked since late 2022, were recently spotted on a double date with Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper. Sources told Us Weekly that Pitt is in a “good place” following his 2024 divorce settlement with Angelina Jolie, crediting years of therapy and a quieter lifestyle for his stability.
While social media is divided over the red carpet interactions, others argue that the awkward moments may simply be circumstantial — not reflective of deeper issues.
