Brad Pitt said he’s “never had a gay experience.”
The F1 actor, 61, got candid about his sexuality during an interview with Dax Shepard on the Monday, June 23, episode of the “Armchair Expert” podcast.
Pitt quipped to Shepard, “I kind of missed that window, but if I did, it wouldn’t be you,” adding that the Parenthood star would be his “14th or 15th” experience if he were to experiment.
Shepard quickly joked back, “I don’t want to brag, but you’re going to need to build up to me. I do recommend you start with some starters.”
The Hollywood heartthrob has previously been married to A-list actresses Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston and has dated stars including Gwyneth Paltrow and Juliette Lewis.
The Seven actor is currently dating Ines de Ramon, with whom he has been linked since late 2022, following her divorce from actor Paul Wesley.
The couple recently looked loved up at the London red carpet premiere of his new movie, F1, about the Formula 1 racing circuit. For the occasion, Pitt rocked a dark green suit while de Ramon dazzled in a silver ensemble. De Ramon was later photographed adjusting Pitt’s shirt as he looked on happily.
Pitt and de Ramon, 32, made their public debut at the British Grand Prix in July 2024. The pair then made their first red carpet appearance together at the Venice International Film Festival that September to celebrate the premiere of his movie Wolfs.
Last month, Pitt cleared up speculation that he made his public debut with his girlfriend last summer to help promote his new movie.
“No, dude, it’s not that calculated,” Pitt, 61, quipped in a GQ profile, hinting it was a coincidence that the twosome made their first real appearance at a car race. “If you’re living … oh my God, how exhausting would that be? If you’re living with making those kinds of calculations? No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve.”
Pitt’s romance with de Ramon is his first since he and ex-wife Jolie finalized their divorce in December 2024.
Pitt was married to Jolie, 50, from 2014 to 2016 after a decade of dating. As they battled for custody of their minor children — Pitt and Jolie are parents of six — and ownership of their French winery, they were declared legally single in November 2019, though their divorce wasn’t finalized until five years later.
Pitt told GQ that he didn’t consider the lengthy legal battle to be “that major of a thing.”
“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time, she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,” Jolie’s lawyer James Simon told Us Weekly in a late December statement, adding that Jolie was “exhausted” by the process.
