It seemed like the day would never come. Then, on Dec. 30, Brad Pitt and ex Angelina Jolie signed off on their divorce after more than eight years spent locked in a bitter legal battle. "There's a big sense of relief that it's over," says a source. "A weight has been lifted."

Now Pitt, 61, is looking ahead. "Brad wants to get his life [back] on track and put this behind him," says the source. "He can start over again." He's excited about his highly anticipated race car flick, F1, out in June. Sources say he's hoping to eventually rebuild his relationships with his six children (he and Jolie, 49, are parents to Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne). And he's going full speed ahead when it comes to his romance with his girlfriend of two years, jewelry exec Ines de Ramon, 35, who, according to sources, was the catalyst for Pitt finally making peace with Jolie. "Ines helped Brad move forward," says a second source, "and think about the divorce in a new light."
