Who doesn’t love when a good movie romance spills over into real life? When costars fall in love, it’s like the film is coming to life, which is why fans go absolutely nuts when it happens.

The Twilight Saga inspired a kind of fandom that few other film franchises have managed to achieve. Though the movies themselves didn’t get the best reviews, the books carried enough weight that people were invested in the films and the actors and actresses in them. So, when it came out that leads Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson were actually dating, it became like a real-life Edward and Bella story.

Though Stewart and Pattinson called it quits in 2012, is she still holding a torch for him?

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson’s relationship

When Stewart and Pattinson got together, fans were obviously thrilled. But they both tried to keep their relationship as private as possible.

“When me and Rob were together, we did not have an example to go by,” Stewart told Harper’s Bazaar U.K. “So much was taken from us that, in trying to control one aspect, we were just like, ‘No, we will never talk about it. Never. Because it’s ours.”

But even though they didn’t flaunt their love, people were still obsessed with it.

“People wanted me and Rob to be together so badly that our relationship was made into a product,” she explained. “It wasn’t real life anymore and that was gross to me. It’s not that I want to hide who I am or hide anything I’m doing in my life. It’s that I don’t want to become a part of a story for entertainment value.”

It got so bad that the two didn’t even want to be affectionate.

“We didn’t walk down the street holding hands because we were like, ‘We don’t wanna give it to ’em.’ But then, we didn’t get to walk down the street holding hands, and it sucked,” she said in an interview with Howard Stern on Nov. 5.

The relationship came to an end in 2012 after pictures surfaced of Stewart and Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders kissing.

Would Kristen Stewart have married Robert Pattinson?

They may be over now, but in that same interview with Stern, Stewart admitted that she probably would have married Pattinson at one point.

“I don’t know,” she replied when asked if she would have gotten married. “I wanted to…”

“If he proposed you would’ve gotten married,” Stern pressed.

“I don’t know, I’m not a super duper traditionalist, but at the same time…every relationship I’ve ever been in, I thought that was it,” she said. “I’ve never really been the most casual person.”

Is Stewart still in love with Pattinson?

While Stewart may have been inclined to marry Pattinson at one time, she has moved on from that relationship and is now reportedly dating Dylan Myer.

When Stern asked if Stewart was in love, she responded enthusiastically.

“Yeah…the answer is yes,” she answered and admitted that she can’t wait to propose.

So, we could be hearing wedding bells for the Charlie’s Angels star in the very near future.
