New York City’s exclusive Cote Korean Steakhouse was the scene of an epic celebrity gathering last night as Brad Pitt and his stunning girlfriend Ines de Ramon stepped out for a double date with longtime friend Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid. The high-profile foursome brought a mix of laid-back cool and dapper elegance to the Manhattan hotspot on Friday, June 13.
Brad Pitt, 61, arrived holding hands with Ines de Ramon, 32, as they navigated a crowd of fans. The Oscar winner turned heads in a shiny lavender silk shirt, partly unbuttoned to reveal some chest hair, paired with black velvet trousers and glossy square-toed shoes. His eye-catching look was completed with oversized metal-framed sunglasses and a new buzzcut, reminiscent of his Fight Club character, Tyler Durden. The shirt even echoed a lilac suit he wore earlier in the week while promoting his upcoming Formula 1 film, F1. Ines, a jewelry designer and Vice President of Anita Ko Jewelry, captivated in a ruched beige minidress that sat off the shoulder, highlighting her hourglass figure, which she paired with a beige quilted handbag and open-toe stilettos.
Joining them were Bradley Cooper, 50, and Gigi Hadid, 30, who opted for a more casual, yet chic, vibe. Gigi cut a relaxed figure in a white T-shirt, silver pants, a light-wash denim jacket, and sneakers, with her blonde hair slicked back into a bun. Bradley complemented her look with a navy top and jeans.
The couples were observed exiting the celeb hotspot separately, amidst Brad Pitt’s recent denial of speculation that his relationship with Ines de Ramon is merely a publicity stunt for his F1 movie. Pitt stated, “No, dude, it’s not that calculated… If you’re living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve”.
A Look at Their Relationships:
- Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon: The couple has been dating since 2022, following Pitt’s highly publicized divorce from Angelina Jolie, which was finalized in December 2024 after an eight-year legal battle. Sources indicate that Ines has been a “calming and supportive presence” for Pitt during this time, encouraging him to “find peace, forgive and move on”. They made their red carpet debut last September for the premiere of his movie Wolfs at the Venice Film Festival.
- Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid: The actor and model have been linked since 2023. This double date marks their “first truly public group outing” since they went Instagram official last month. Gigi shared a sweet snap of them kissing in her May Instagram post celebrating her 30th birthday, captioning it, “I feel so lucky to be 30! I feel so lucky for every high and low…I’m so lucky to be a mom, friend, partner, sister, daughter, colleague to some of the most unbelievable humans!!”. She has expressed her respect for Cooper as a creative, noting that he offers “encouragement and, just, belief”.
The Enduring “Brads” Friendship:
The evening also highlighted the long-standing friendship between Brad Pitt and Bradley Cooper. Cooper played a “key role” in Pitt’s sobriety journey. Pitt publicly thanked Cooper in 2020 while accepting an award, stating, “I got sober because of this guy, and every day’s been happier ever since. I love you, and I thank you”. After Cooper’s 2019 split from Irina Shayk, Pitt made an overture by taking him to the LA Philharmonic orchestra. Both actors have quit boozing and now choose venues where they can “stay out of trouble and relax”. They also share an interest in racing, with Cooper frequently attending Formula 1 events and Pitt starring in the upcoming F1 movie.
This quiet double date offered a glimpse into the evolving personal lives of these major Hollywood figures, showcasing not only their romantic relationships but also the deep, supportive friendships that thrive amidst the glare of the spotlight.
