Brad Pitt and Bradley Cooper’s friendship continues to thrive, despite their hectic schedules. According to sources, the two actors are planning to spend quality time together with their partners, Ines De Ramon and Gigi Hadid, forming a stylish and talented group.
With Bradley Cooper’s support, Brad Pitt has become a prominent figure in Alcoholics Anonymous among Hollywood’s elite. This has created a new, sober social circle for him and Ines De Ramon. Brad is leading a movement among actors and creators of all ages to choose healthier activities over drinking, such as reading or attending concerts.
Brad, now 60, and Bradley, 49, have been friends for many years. Brad publicly thanked Bradley for helping him achieve sobriety during his 2020 Best Supporting Actor victory speech at the National Board of Review’s annual dinner. Bradley, who got clean at 19, has been sober for over two decades.
The source mentioned that both actors take their sobriety very seriously. “If you’re around either of these guys, you can feel the tension and vulnerability firsthand,” the insider said. “They are full of apologies and striving to live better lives. They have incredible stories of overcoming their drinking and making amends.”
Pitt’s main focus is maintaining a healthy relationship with his girlfriend, Ines De Ramon, a 34-year-old jewelry designer. The couple, introduced by a mutual friend, has been together since December 2022. On the other hand, Cooper is driven by a desire to make his mother and late father proud, seeking redemption from his tumultuous early years in Hollywood. His girlfriend, 29-year-old model Gigi Hadid, is used to dealing with a more reserved partner, having been linked to Cooper since October 2023.
Recently, Brad Pitt honored Bradley Cooper at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. During the event, Pitt presented Cooper with the Outstanding Performer of the Year award for his remarkable performance in the film Maestro, which Pitt described as a “masterwork.”
In his tribute, Pitt remarked on the similarities he shares with Cooper, joking about their shared status as movie superstars and their common names. Reflecting on Bradley’s portrayal of Phil in The Hangover, he highlighted the subtleties of his performance, particularly his ability to enjoy the irreverence of his co-star Alan, played by Zach Galifianakis.
Pitt also praised Cooper’s directorial debut in A Star Is Born, emphasizing the high standards set by previous versions of the film and Cooper’s exceptional execution in the role. Discussing his performance in Maestro, Pitt applauded Cooper’s skill in portraying complex emotions and situations with precision and authenticity, highlighting his seamless coordination with the crew during filming.
