Hollywood star Pitt is said to be overjoyed in his relationship with girlfriend Ines de Ramon and has "found his spark" for life again.
The lovebirds have also taken a significant "natural" step in their 15-month-long romance that began in November 2022 by cohabiting at Pitt's residence in California.
According to an insider who spoke to People magazine, the decision for de Ramon to move in was a natural progression, as "they were spending so much time together at Brad's that it just made sense for Ines to move in with him."
"She still has her own place, but they spend most of their time at his, and Ines has most of her belongings there," they added.
The source also emphasized Pitt's joy, stating that the 60-year-old "Bullet Train" actor is "very happy and loves spending time with her. Moving in together was a natural thing."
"With Ines, he found his spark again. It's truly amazing to see. Brad's a great guy. He deserves to be happy," the source noted.

The insider revealed that Pitt's current relationship with de Ramon marks his first serious commitment since his tumultuous divorce from ex-wife Angelina Jolie in 2019.
"This is the first serious relationship, and he couldn't be happier," the source shared.
Describing the 34-year-old jewelry professional as "kind, funny, and special," the source shared that it was "amazing" to see the actor's newfound happiness.
Despite the significant step, the "Fight Club" actor is said to be taking their relationship seriously without rushing into the next stages.
"He is not rushing the next steps, but they're in a great spot and loving their time together. Ines is thrilled and super into Brad," the insider added.
Brad Pitt And Ines de Ramon's Outing Together
The couple's romance first became public in November 2022 when they were seen together at a Bono concert in Los Angeles. However, insiders revealed to the outlet that their relationship was several months old before their public appearance.
The following month, the lovebirds stepped out for the "Babylon" premiere in L.A. but did not make a joint red carpet appearance. They have since been frequently seen together, notably at Pitt's intimate 60th birthday celebration last December and more recently at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
At the event, an observer at the party noted that the actor "seemed to be in very good spirits onstage when he presented the award to Bradley and poked fun at his friend, joking that he was just here for the free trip to Santa Barbara."
De Ramon was recently spotted in Los Angeles on Thursday, gracefully retrieving an opulent floral arrangement, seemingly a Valentine's Day gift from Pitt, as she made her way to a waiting vehicle on a bustling street accompanied by an assistant carrying a vase brimming with pink and white flowers.
Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Are 'Navigating The Last Red Tape' Of Their Divorce
Before her current relationship with Pitt, de Ramon was married to "Vampire Diaries" star Paul Wesley from 2019 until their divorce in 2022.
Pitt was also married to his "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" co-star Angelina Jolie from 2014 until the "Maleficent" star filed for divorce in 2016 citing "irreconcilable differences." Although their divorce is still pending finalization, the former couple were declared legally single in 2019.
The recent development in Pitt's evolving relationship with de Ramon coincides with significant progress in his ongoing divorce proceedings with Jolie.
According to a recent source cited by Us Weekly, the former couple are "navigating the last of the red tape, which is a huge relief and morale boost."
"It saddens him that he's not on better terms with some of his kids, and he regrets that things got so acrimonious with Angelina, but the days of looking back in anger are behind him," the insider noted.
