LOS ANGELES — Actor Brad Pitt did not attend the May 20, 2026 university graduation ceremony of his daughter Zahara Jolie, according to official attendance records and witness accounts. Event logs show that his former spouse Angelina Jolie was present at the ceremony to support their daughter, while Pitt did not obtain tickets or attempt to enter the venue. Instead, the 62-year-old actor appeared that evening at a high-profile Mercedes-AMG world premiere on Los Angeles’ Sixth Street Bridge, arriving on the red carpet with his girlfriend, 33-year-old jewelry professional Ines de Ramon. The outing marked a rare joint red carpet appearance for the couple, who have been romantically linked since late 2022 and began living together full-time in October 2025. LOS ANGELES — At the premiere, Pitt and de Ramon posed for photographs, held hands and spoke with other entertainment industry attendees. Pitt wore a tan suit with a white dress shirt and sunglasses, debuting a new hairstyle, while de Ramon attended in a red strapless gown with a plunging neckline. The choice to attend the event instead of Zahara’s graduation comes amid continuing domestic division between Pitt and his six children, following a protracted family court process and legal divorce from Jolie that concluded in 2024. Several of the children have previously filed legal petitions to remove “Pitt” from their surnames, and neither Pitt’s nor Jolie’s representatives have issued public statements about his absence from the ceremony or the family’s current relationships.
