Kristen Stewart apologizes for cheating on Rob Pattinson
By Tribute on July 26, 2012 | 81 Comments
The web has been buzzing for the last 24 hours about Kristen Stewart, 22, who cheated on her Twilight co-star and boyfriend, Robert Pattinson, 26, with Snow White & the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders. Sanders, 41, is married to Vogue model, Liberty Ross, 33, with whom he has two kids. Ross posted two tweets directly after Us Weekly made the allegations on their front cover. The first tweet mysteriously said “Wow.” The second tweet was a Marilyn Monroe quote that read, “Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” Soon after, her Twitter account was deleted. Liberty also apparently posted a picture of a drunken Snow White with the caption, “Not so pretty or so pure after all” on Instagram under her account name “libertyross.” The account was later changed to private. Yesterday, Kristen issued a public apology, saying, “I’m deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I’ve caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I’m so sorry.” Meanwhile, Sanders released a statement to People that read: “I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family. My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together.” ~Stacy Raivich

Tenet review: Christopher Nolan’s thriller a wild, wild ride
August 24, 2020 | 7 Comments
Christopher Nolan’s Tenet is incredibly fresh, original and, at times, complex, but promises to take you on a wild, wild ride. Click to read our review.
Not only is she a bad actress, she’s an idiot too!!. How can you realease a statement “I Love him” after you cheated? Where was the love then?
it will be like justin timberlake and Brittney…..stupid thing to do, they will break up
it will be like justin timberlake and Brittney…..stupid thing to do, they will break up. and shes a terrible acctess
I agree with Germain. If you love someone you don’t cheat on them. He should dump her immediately. She’s obviously not a quality person and he deserves better.
A two-timer in Twilight AND real life…
Stewart is not married – no worries…
Sanders has a wife and 2 children – adultery…
Perhaps another Hollywood ploy to increase viewership for Snow White and Twilight…
Kristen Stewart and Rupert Sanders are just awful! He’s married for goodness sake!! unbelievable.
Is anyone really shocked that she apologized? It’s not like she could come out and say ‘Yeah I’m happy I did it! So what!? Oh..by the way..go see Breaking Dawn: Part 2!” Just bad judgement and bad timing overall. Your career was just starting to really take off..hope he was worth it.
The real crime is the fact her terrible acting skills some how gets her more movie roles. She is such a joke, and I hope Pattinson doesn’t take her back. I love how the media is trying to make her out to be the victim. Really?
Wow. Huge mistake. I wonder how this is going to affect her career. Not that she was that great of an actress anyway..
No idea what this guy was thinking. Not only does he have a family, but he’s also got his career on the line. “Snow White” was his FIRST feature, and now he’s got this massive cloud hanging over his head. Does he really expect the studio to bring him back for the sequel now? Talk about blowing your big chance.
wow i didn’t realize how pure and innocent and saintly everyone here is. i mean, so ready to trash this girl over a mistake. you guys must be holier than anyone else i’ve ever know. I’m sure that none of you, and no one else in this world, has ever made a mistake which hurt other people and was out of your control. i mean, you are all perfect. lets stone this girl. no one deserves mercy or compassion, let alone this girl. if you aren’t perfect, then you may as well throw yourself over a bridge.
funny though, that people who usually judge and don’t forgive and cast the first stone, eventually find themselves at the receiving end one day. you are not better than anyone else. we all make mistakes. you better forgive and have mercy cuz let me tell you, when you’re in the hot spot, you’re going to hope someone has mercy and forgiveness for you.
only ones i really feel bad for are the poor wife and kids…
This guy cheated on a MODEL with kristen stewart? that was his first mistake right there. If you’re gonna cheat, at least cheat with someone HOTTER!
Wow NotASaint, I guess you’ve cheated before and you don’t think it’s so bad. I’ve never cheated and never will, I can say that for a fact. We’re not saying she should throw herself “over a bridge” (you’re being a little hysterical with comments like that, don’t you think?). As to your comment “you are not better than anyone else”, yes, some people are better than others, haven’t you noticed that yet? And people who don’t cheat are better people than those who don’t. If you’d like to argue with that, then maybe you should get a reality check. Welcome to earth.
I honestly don’t understand why everyone seems to be blaming only Kristen Stewart for this. I get that she’s young and she’s at fault, but what about Rupert Sanders?! He was in it just as much as she and should be equally to blame. Why must the media put down women all the time? Sometimes men are just as much at fault!! God.
Of course Rupert is to blame taking advantage of a 22 year old. She is so young and has had fame thrust upon her. From what I gather she has only been with Rob since she was 18. Give the poor girl a break. Rupert on the other hand, is married, is over 40, is in a position of authority (director). He should have known better. Let’s throw the stones where they should be thrown. Let’s hope his wife gets a nice divorce settlement – all of Rupert’s earnings from the movie is a good start.
She’s young, and people make mistakes!! But Rupert should have known better… he took advantage of his position for sure. I hope he gets what he deserves.
I like Kristen Stuwart even before this ‘Twillight’ crap tossed her into the limelight but now that shes a slut I love her even more! I dont care what she does in her private life but next time post pictures paparazis, whoo hoo, ho. NotASaint and Jackson sound like the same person.
jackson, have fun living on your earth. none of us escape the hot spot. ive never cheated. but i know couples who have gone through that and some of them break up and others stick it through and forgive and are stronger for that.
and no, no one is better than anyone else. we can all fall into the same trap as the other person. but i don’t care to argue with you because life will teach you that and life is the hardest lesson to learn.
I’ve been married 11 years and have 2 wonderful kids. nobody is perfect and no relationship is either but I always kept my dick in my pants and I had opportunities to cheat. Some people say, just don’t put yourself in a position where it might happen but that’s impossible, sometimes the opportunity will present itself no matter what. the fact that you say no proves what kind of person you are. She’s been with him 4 years and still says how much in love with him she is, he’s married with 2 kids and from his statement, feels like crap and wants to work throught it. It seems like they were not unhappy in their relationship so they are both to blame and should suffer the consequences of their actions.
Well if u ask me i think that people make mistakes and i bet more then half of the ppl trying to judge have their own indiscrestions to hide so get over it and over urselfs. Besides the last time i checked it was their relationship not urs!
The name is NOT a saint, enough said
Wow!! Some of you seem really bitter about this. I’m guessing you are all friends with Rob as you are ready to stone Kristen for what happened. It’s Hollywood people. You’d think this has never happened before. No, it’s not an excuse but geez, she makes one mistake and is condemned to hell for it. NotASaint does have a very good point. No one is perfect. Everyone thinks they are better than the next to themselves but in reality, they MAY NOT be. Who are we to judge? We we there? Do you know how it happened or the reasons behind it? Hell, maybe they were all at a party celebrating and had way to much to drink and then the huge regret come morning. We don’t know. It’s all just gossip unless you were there to prove otherwise. Who cares anyways!!!!
I am sick and tired of this moralizing. I have been with many many many women. I consider “cheating ” to include stealing from them, lying to them, betraying their trust, etc. I have never seen such faux moral outrage in my life.
I have (according to your definition) cheated and been cheated on. If the relationship was strong enough it bounced back and was not devastated by the extramarital sex. If it’s not, nothing would have saved it. Period.
I don’t see Liberty Ross threatening divorce. Perhaps she wants to save her marriage. I don’t see Pattinson dumping Stewart. Perhaps it was a mistake or perhaps they were normal healthy human beings caught up on a moment of passion. Some can resist this temptation, some cannot. (I am the latter. I believe we regret what we DO NOT do, not usually what we DO do.) Sex is important but it’s not the whole thing. Nobody was beaten or abused, nobody was cheated out of their life savings (THAT’S cheating!) and nobody was lied to. They will either choose to work it out or not. Each will do what they believe will make them happy in the long run.
I just hope if I ever get married and get in trouble (I mean real emotional trouble) that none of you turn out to be marriage counselors.
WOW..guess I am middle of the road here..having been cheated on myself and blindsided…everyone makes mistakes, unfortunately for these two(2) it is soooo public..I agree they both should have thought it through but he was definitely in a position to see it clearer!
Who really cares. People are human and get caught up in situations that they later regret.
Two responsible adults.. both in committed relationships, both cheaters, both hurt people that love them and count on them. Both irresponsible. He had no respect for his commitment to his wife and she had no respect for the fact he was married either and she could be the cause of his family breaking up in which case his kids will grow up hating her. There are some lines that shouldn’t be crossed. Not up to the public to judge but they made it public by tweeting about it to their fans, they wanted it public now they can face the consequences.
Donna, thank you!!! I mean, based on the logic of some of the comments here, if I go out and cheat on my wife tonight and she finds out, she should just accept it and move on and act as if nothing ever happened. Forget about the vows, commitment and marriage, how about the respect and trust of the other person? Or does that mean nothing to you people. We don’t all have the same values and if ours are different than our partner, we can wither respect them or end it before someone gets hurt.
There is no reason to cheat, if your realtionship is going down the drain then END IT. NOt that hard. People who cheat are gutless, and cheat so they can give them a reason on why things ended. She makes me sick. If she apologized bebfore the US weekly photo came out, then fine I could say she messed up. She is only apologizing because she got caught with her hand in the cookie jar. By then it’s too late to apologize and say I still love him. Everybody makes mistakes, but cheating is cowardly. Did you really go to the booze excuse Erica? Really? Oh I was drunk so I didn’t know what happened. Get a clue
you guys make me sick. you’re all psychos. try not to kill yourselves if you ever make a mistake.
Bump her Skanky @ss!
So pointless to try and make logical sense out of something based on emotion. Nobody, and I mean no human alive, has the right to judge and criticize. We all make mistakes, sometimes have poor judgement, get confused, make bad decisions, change our minds in an instant, hurt people we love, etc., etc. Your opinion says more about you than it does about them.
I personally am thinking publicity stunt, this girl is so private and never is photgraphed doing anything with her boyfriend ( speculation for 4 years) and all of a sudden she gets caught cheating on camera! Perhaps the movie is not doing great so lets make people want to watch by having a scandal.
Amber, maybe you and me should get together, If I ever cheat on you (make a mistake) I know I’ll be forgiven so I can indulge.
to all the rational people on this comment page, don’t even bother. its a mob mentality, they’re just gonna keep going without thinking twice.
If more women refused to sleep with married men…there would be no cheating would there…???? She’s worse than he is….
Ye that is without sin cast the first stone.
from what I read she is a bad actress, since I have not watched anything she is in then I will just wondering not accusing …..if such a bad actress how is she getting these roles ???? hmmmm one has to wonder , and I am sorry if you uwant to cheat then leave the relationship they are both guilty ……some things that I cannot forgive and that is breaking the vow or promise you have given to someone you claim to love with all your heart
FYI… no matter why people cheat, cheating or not cheating is ALWAYS within the cheater’s control. Yes, people make mistakes, but cheating is never okay. It doesn’t matter if you’re married and/or have been in a short- or long-term relationship. It’s still a betrayal of the commitment two people have made to eachother.
As well, the only reason Kristein and Rupert are apologizing publicly in the first place is because Liberty posted comments on her social media accounts (not that they shouldn’t apologize). I don’t condone what Rupert/Kristen have done, but Liberty could have been an adult and handled the situation better rather than posting childish comments about Kristen. She obviously has no respect for her marriage either. The only one (assumedly) being an adult about all this is Robert since he is dealing with this on his own and not through the media. Celebrities need to start doing this more. We don’t always want to know about your dirty laundry, especially when it is the same old “I cheated on _______” story.
OK wait, wait, wait a minute guys seriously what exactly did happen here? Did they do just KISS??? I mean especially for actors what does this mean really? If they screwed then ya ok I get it but sometimes a kiss all though cheating is still cheating with a kiss is far and from between from fu*@ing lol so IDK it’s easier to forgive someone who might of �Only�� kissed someone else is all I’m saying especially if they were drunk. So what��s the real scoop here anyone know? Also it��s very stupid on the director��s part to �Steal�� all the flame between her and her co-star Hemsworth like really stupid no wonder they didn��t really seem to connect in the movie for she was to busy with the director haha! Very Stupid!
I always find it interesting how people are always “Sorry” only after they get caught.
Kristen – When you were heading to his room, did you remember how much you ‘love and respected’ Robert.
Rupert – When you were kissing and touching Kristen, were you remembering your ‘beautiful wife and heavenly children’ and how you were destroying their lives.
This was NO MISTAKE

YAY! for notasaint. I totally agree with you! she is a young girl who made a mistake. I think she probably shouldn’t have publicly made an apology now everybody knows. The poor wife.
Oh I do have a clue Bill. The fact that I don’t know what really happened because I wasn’t there just like ALL the rest of you. You can say whatever you want, NONE of us knows what really happened. I just made 1 statement and I said maybe. I never said that that was a VALID excuse. I didn’t even say it was their excuse. If you actually read what I wrote you would know that. And anyways, NOT THAT IT IS AN EXCUSE!!!!!, but everyone is making out like they were caught in bed together. According to articles, they just kissed. NO I am NOT saying that that is ok either. All I am saying, and this is for you Bill, is that we shouldn’t judge people unless we were there and/or know the whole story. You’d think these were the first people in the world who cheated. Some of you need to get over your holier than thou selves.
ONE MORE THING THAT SOOOOO MANY SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN IN THE KRISTEN BASHING IS THAT SHE WASN’T THE ONLY ONE INVOLVED IN THIS. I HOPE HE MAKES YOU SICK TOO BILL AND NOT JUST HER.

This was NO MISTAKE. These were 2 people of sound mind that made the decision to cheat on their so called loved ones. At this point I don’t believed either one loved their partners (Robert or Rupert wife and kids). When you really love someone you don’t purposely hurt them by destroying the trust they have in you.
YAY FOR ERICA!
Well many a relationship has gone through these sort of indiscretions and in previous years if the couples truly loved one another they worked through it, now a days it is too convenient to just not try at all which saddens me! It has become a disposable world for everything and that includes love and human emotions! I feel really bad for Robert, I can’t believe she did this and until her apologizes I didn’t believe, you know how the tabloids are, but alas I heard. I would suggest though that if they truly love each other as they say they do they find a way to work through this mess!
exactly! it is too easy to walk away. Too many people do this. Be tough and work through things… Relationships aren’t easy.
So Erica is Rupert dating Robert on the side? Get your facts straight if you are going to make a point. The debate is Stewart’s “apology”, not who are the parties involved in the cheating. ANy moron, except you, knows it takes two to tango. I’ll bet judy is the girl who dates losers then wonders why it never works out. lol Yeah I want to work on a relationship with a girl who cheated, then only apologized because she got caught. Sounds like a plan stan! THANK GOD they don’t have kids. relationships don’t work because people today are weak. Not all but most.
I’ve never seen so many comments on here before. Wow! I just feel bad for all of the parties involved. This must be a terrible time for them all.
Let’s all have a big skanky orgy.
It looks as if Robert and Kristen only had a type of casual relationship, seeing each other on rare occassions, between filming or on the twilight set, and mostly staying together because of the twilight image of protraying a real couple outside the movie (which helps the Twilight ratings). But now that Twilight filming is over or near to being over, I guess Robert and Kristen will move on to other relationships.
However, if Kristen is looking elsewhere, she should stay away from married men. Doesn’t she care at all that she may be half the cause of this couple divorcing and destroying those kids family lives. Rupert is also half to blame for destroying his family.
I agree with NotASaint. Good, compassionate, objective opinion. So many have made the same mistake or worse, plus what did they do, get caught in a kiss or is there more or NOT. Plus the fish bowl they live in has been thrust on them from Twilight etc. not sought out actively like celebrity attention lovers. How would a couple settle an indiscretion over a kiss with no publicity versus with this paparazzi ambush crap reporting? It would be easier for me to swallow pride and forgive without what seems like the world watching. And the power that has been abused by a boss over an employee, lucky for him she is level-headed enough not to play a sexual harassment suit.
Judge not lest ye be judged.
No matter how you slice it they are just as human as anyone else and hurt just as easy maybe easier with the unending scrutiny. Sad and painful. Compassion is the only way.
Robert…if you need a shoulder to console yourself….mine is very free.
both of you are trash.
Sex tape, or it didn’t happen!
IMO there are different levels of cheating. Some are more serious than others. Sometimes people get caught up in the moment and/or are under the influence and things just happen without time to react responsibly. Though, within that time frame there will always 100% (with certainty) be a short blip of conscious creeping in to cock block. That decision you make there, and after(coming clean) is what ultimately matters, IMHO. Oh and it SHOULD have been stopped before ANY hole in ones…
I see the group mentality is bashing Kristen and she is how old? Rupert is 41, married with children, you don’t think he deserves some of this bashing just because Kristen is a star doesn’t mean she isn’t young and impressionable, he was the director of this film and he took advantage of a young starlet not harlot! He was married and sure Robert and Kristen were living together he, with his age, and position in life is far more guilty! Not to say that a living common law relationship isn’t as valuable but he has children involved. So bash on him for taking advantage of her! What I am trying to point out that none of us were there we don’t know the whole story and we don’t know all the circumstances!
What a dummy!!!
It’s a mistake when it happens once or twice. Was this a mistake or has this mistake been going on for longer?
Things that make you go Hmmmm?
lets peel it back to the actual facts we know. she has a boyfriend,not a husband. they “kissed” so far as we know. no one said they f***ed yet. he,however,is married,with children. and kissing (intent) could be more hurtful than just having intercourse,because it implies emotional connection.
they are both sorry. because they got caught.
she is young and dumb, he is old enough to know better, but when someone half your age is up for it,he becomes a typical guy because thats some bragging rights you got there. stupid,but thats life. women need a reason to make love,men just need a place.
ive been with the same woman for 15 years with zero mistakes. have i been tempted? sure. it doesnt matter where you get your appetite though,as long as you eat at home. bottom line: temptation is always going to be there,acting on it or not is a conscious decision,that is what separates the men from the boys.
I can’t post about this right now, I’m just too upset…
Blah,blah,blah. What else is new in Tinseltown?
Steve c has a point, likeI said they just Kissed (so far as we know) proffessinal actors kiss all the time for movies etc this shouldn’t be too hard to forgive. In the other area of things mr 41 with a wife and 2 kids it’s a little bit of a bigger thing. But still understandable he’s a married man 41 and wants to see if he still got it and star struck with a younger woman and power of being a director etc. etc. but yes he has more to answer for than her. Now will this dull the performance of the last Twilight? Hope not. That’s to bad that this happened because it reflected on the Movie Snow white and the huntsman it self. No energy captured from her co stars towards her. Ruined a possible masterpiece.
The reason everyone is focusing on Kristen Stewart is obviously because she is more famous. Both of them are obviously idiots but the guy is not even half well-known as Stewart so obviously people are bashing her. They’re so stupid.. making out in a park.. you’re famous! There’s gonna be papparazi watching you! Don’t cheat on people!
Let’s just cross our fingers Selena and Justin aren’t next…
This situation is sad on so many levels. It is with maturity, love, and commitment to yourself and your partner that this situation would never have presented itself. Instant gratification might feel terrific for a moment … what you lose you will never regain. They have both displayed that cheating is part of their character.
Some of the comments are indicative of a society that is lacking in judgement, honesty, and character. This is not a small issue; everyone will be affected by this indiscretion.
OMG, aren’t we a sanctimoius group. The was the article read and the feed back I thought they did the wild thing under the infuence. They kissed and got tell. Let’s let everyone take responsibility for their actions 100%….these two people are over the age of 16. Both take commitment lightly especially if they kiss other people off screen!!! When someone says “never” I wonder how they can know what will happen for the rest of their life. I believed marriage was forever, till death do we part. That eventually changed when in my map of the world I was the one that had to die and it was ok if he did. how many marriages fail, how many marry someone that’s been married before. Looks have little to do with cheating, look at all the hotties male and female that cheat on each other… in this case kiss. Like Clinton said oral sex isn’t really sex. Teen girls truly believe this because they still have their virginity. Explain that one away along with kissing is cheating. Kissing is hurtful maybe, forgivable for sure.
@ Snpets : LMAO!!
Get a grip you folks. Nobody owns Kristen, she can do as she pleases. If Rob wanted her exclusively for himself then when was he planning to make a commitment and at least get engaged to her? It’s only the married guy who has any answering to do to anybody. He’s responsible for his marriage, not Kristen. This is Hollywood…is any of this really news?
LuvMyVamps….
Totally agree…this is Hollywood people…happens all the time…!!!!
another couple who got together too young and haven’t dated enough other people. There’s obviously trouble somewhere with the couple or she wouldn’t have cheated. Maybe it’s a good thing she cheated now before it went further. Get it out of her system and now they should see other people. If it’s meant to be they will get back together at a later date but not NOW. He shouldn’t take her back right away.
She is still a great actress, and everybody should mind their own business. God will take care of things.
Oh hello people this is Hollywood…nothing new here…!!!!
Both Kristen and Rupert have made a HUGE Mistake that will cost them alot, personally and in their careers. I certainly hope both have learned not to make this mistake again by respecting their future partners and not cheating on them.
Everyone makes mistakes, would you like it if all your issues were all aired for all to read? I feel sorry for her for having all this hate while trying to fix the aftermath and trust. If they can get through this, then that would be great.
She’s such a cr*ppy actress… even her apology’s dry and stiff (no pun intended).
In any event, people will forgive her because society’s complacent towards hot young lying sk*nks.
it’s funny that they are so sorry for what they have done or more like they are sorry the cats out of the bag
heyy lets condemn people and insult people that make mistakes in life. on top of that, lets ruin their career by never watching their movies (or hey, if they work in a coffee shop, lets never go there for coffee, or if they work in a hospital, lets die instead of seeking treatment by them!). NO ONE EVER has ANY right to make a mistake, how DARE she?!? and then to APOLOGIZE??? WOW ! she sure has some nerve. you are all right, she is terrible, we are all soo perfect, no one ever makes mistakes except the rich and celebs. maybe we should all be the movie stars to show them how to PROPERLY live their lives! that will teach them how to act in a holy, saintlike manner for sure!
seriously, until a single one of us on this site can say and prove we are perfect, who are we to judge her by her mistakes? its ridiculous adults would react this way over a 22 year old kissing someone thats not her boyfriend.
The apology has been extended…if Rob chooses to acceptit and her back…that is his decision….it’s his heart on the line…..They are young…they will survive to hurt another day. As for Mr. Married Man…shame on you!! Your wife and children deserve better.
