Robert Pattinson finally dumps Kristen Stewart

By Alexandra Heilbron on January 17, 2013 | 34 Comments


Now that The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 is winding down its theatrical run, the announcement we all knew was coming is finally here – Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart‘s relationship is over. They supposedly got back together briefly after breaking up due to her sordid affair with director Rupert Sanders, but even at the premiere of the movie, they were only together briefly for a photo op before Pattinson sprinted away to do solo interviews on the red carpet. Now the British newspaper The Sun is reporting that he dumped her last weekend, pulling out the relationship death knell: “Let’s be friends.” Not only that; he did it right before the Golden Globes to ensure she wouldn’t be his date at the glamorous event.

A source told the paper: “She flew to LA and was supposed to be Rob’s date for the Golden Globes, but he told her he wants to cool it off. He loves her but would rather go back to being good friends so they can rebuild their trust and focus on work after Twilight. Kristen’s upset but understands. She shouldn’t have pushed him to reconcile after her infidelity. She’s hoping he’ll come round and time will be a great healer.” The source added: “He was getting so much pressure to ditch her. His friends told him to focus on his career and said she was wrecking his chances.” Pattinson has no less than five major films coming up on his slate, so his career is blossoming. Stewart, on the other hand, has only one film scheduled, but that’s not even a sure thing now that her co-star, Ben Affleck, dropped out of the production. ~Alexandra Heilbron

    Noooo;) they were the best couple ever. I suppose they will be back together soon.

    Kelly, you are a jerk

  4. Charles M. • January 17, 2013 @ 11:29 AM

    Good for him!!! She is a terminally stupid skanky slut who committed adultery.

  5. sarahhh • January 17, 2013 @ 11:38 AM

    FINALLY!!! He deserves someone who he can have a good relationship with. He probably did try to give the relationship another go but would be hard to do in Hollywood with everybody still talking about how she cheated

  6. Kelly • January 17, 2013 @ 12:32 PM

    Jim; everyone here has different opinion. So you just shut the f.. up and whine like Kristen Stewart! I would say again good for him!! He is too good for this little spoiled trash!

  7. Brian • January 17, 2013 @ 1:04 PM

    Well like they say: In Hollywood you never miss your spouce or love one, you just miss your turn.

  8. Jeff • January 17, 2013 @ 1:18 PM

    I doubt they were ever back together – the studio forced him to pretend he was back with her. It’s not clear she knew it was a pretense though. Not shedding any tears for her though, she got what she deserves.

    I’m still surprised Rob took her back & honestly believe Twilight producers had something to do with that.

    And to those who believe they belong together….WAKE UP! She was having a secret affair behind Rob’s back with the director. After f..k..g her director, she’d go home and tell Rob she loves him.

    And if reporters hadn’t caught her, she probably still be cheating behind Rob’s back. Her pathetic attempt to apologize by telling the media “I’m sorry. I love you Rob.” ONLY AFTER SHE WAS CAUGHT….only shows her level of relationship values and how little respect and love she has for Rob.

    Nothing special about him especially in the looks department from top to bottom, so now she can move on and find someone better.

  11. Jennifer • January 17, 2013 @ 2:49 PM

    You sound incredibly shallow, Anne. If you’d ever seen him do an interview, you’d realize how incredibly funny, self-deprecating and sweet he is. But I’m sure you miss out on a lot of incredible guys because you only go for the looks. And btw, a lot of women find him really good looking as well. He started out as a model.

  12. Lisa • January 17, 2013 @ 4:23 PM

    I think this is bad news and well we all have different opians to this situation but they will work it out they are grown adults

  13. Katey • January 17, 2013 @ 4:27 PM

    Aww! 🙁
    I found them so adorable!
    I hope they have better luck, and I also hope they stay good friends..
    they are my favourite actors.. i love them both.
    they deserve the best for sure

  14. Lynn • January 17, 2013 @ 4:49 PM

    They have not broken up. She was his date at the Golden Globes. This story comes from a UK paper that thrives on printing trash.

    Kristen and Rob are fine.

  15. Jackson • January 17, 2013 @ 5:26 PM

    She wasn’t his date – there are no pictures of him with a date at the Globes.

  16. C-Dub • January 17, 2013 @ 5:34 PM

    Finally. Now can this end?!?

  17. LH • January 17, 2013 @ 7:16 PM

    I guess it’s for the best.

  18. D. Chan • January 17, 2013 @ 7:20 PM

    Good for him, even though I am not a fan of Pattison. Can’t be trusted once cheated!

  19. Barb Litton • January 17, 2013 @ 8:09 PM

    Is everybody really that gullible? I don’t believe for one minute that they were a real couple. You just have to look back at the “studio system” of the 50’s. Couples were “made” to promote a movie. Even their so called break-up was part of it…it laid the ground work for the eventual end of the relationship which came at…gee I wonder when? THE END OF THE MOVIE SERIES!!!

  20. Ur mom • January 17, 2013 @ 8:49 PM

    Like I said, the relationship was a PUBLICITY STUNT for the Breaking Shit movie. It was ALL FAKE!!
    Suck it up, Twihards. Robsten?! Edward and Bella forever?! Give me a break. -_-

  21. the original N.I. /Nobody Important/ • January 18, 2013 @ 3:37 AM

    Not surprising; they only got back together to sell their cr*ppy movie (under the studio’s request no doubt). It’s damn near impossible to take-back a cheater without holding onto some resentment.

  22. Snepts • January 18, 2013 @ 5:11 AM

    Good career move — they’ll milk the press for months when they get back together!

  23. fsdfgsdfgs • January 18, 2013 @ 6:07 AM

    goood for him she was a slut anyway

  24. fsdfgsdfgs • January 18, 2013 @ 6:09 AM

    GOOOOOD at least now she can learn some bleddy facial expressions loooool

  25. joe • January 18, 2013 @ 8:32 AM

    kristen stewpid is a cheater and a whore

  26. Marky-Mark • January 18, 2013 @ 4:06 PM

    @ charles M.

    She didn’t commit adultrey. The married man did.

    ——————————–

    Semantics. For intense and purposes Kristen and Rob were together long enough to constitute common-law.

  28. Linus • January 19, 2013 @ 2:43 PM

    Good for you Rob, dump that tramp once and for all, if she did it once she will do it again

    I am free if you wanna call me.

  29. j • January 19, 2013 @ 10:31 PM

    finally there is a light at the end of the tunnel

  30. j • January 19, 2013 @ 10:32 PM

    right on joe you tell them

  31. brooklin99 • January 22, 2013 @ 12:59 AM

    I think they were only together for show and to keep the studio executives happy. I think Rob never did get past the fact that Kristen cheated on him. All the trust in her went out the window. Not surprised that they are all over. It’s unfortunate that she destroyed his trust in her and their relationship.

  32. shasha • January 22, 2013 @ 2:54 PM

    finally he has come to his senses. she is a rude and spoiled brat who needs a good ass beating. she hates doing interviews. you can just tell from her actions. she is an awful actress too. not to mention an adulterer. i think rob and jennifer lawrence would be a great match. maybe doing a movie together would be a good start.

  33. mandee • January 25, 2013 @ 9:01 AM

    i am certain that out of all you people that have bashed kristen stewart (im not even reading more than the first 5 comments, because such negativity is not needed in my life) have been idiots or done mistakes you regret in your life at some point, so really who are any of you to judge her? i hope one day someone points out every single one of all of your flaws so you can all see how it feels. 🙂

    want some whine with that cheese????
