Robert Pattinson Dumps FKA Twigs Amid Kristen Stewart Getting Back Together Rumors

Robert Pattinson and FKA Twigs have reportedly ending their relationship, and news of their split comes just days after a report surfaced claiming Kristen Stewart was looking to possible reconcile with her “Twilight” co-star and ex-boyfriend.

Pattinson and Twigs, whose real name is Tahliah Barnett, have called off their engagement due to their differing schedules, E! Online reports. “Their travel schedules took a big toll on the relationship. Robert is the one who ended it,” said a source. The outlet reported a second unnamed source also confirmed it was the film actor who broke things off with the singer.

“They bought a house together but then it was just not working out between them. She moved out,” added the insider.

While scheduling conflicts is said to be one reason for the breakup, another source said their split was due to “timing” issues, adding, “They still have love for each other.”

The couple’s breakup comes several days after OK! Magazine published a report claiming Pattinson’s former onscreen and off-screen “Twilight” love interest, Kristen Stewart, was looking to reconnect due to her “dramatic” relationship with girlfriend Stella Maxwell.

“Kristen misses Rob when things aren’t going well in her life and right now things are tricky with Stella,” a source told the magazine. “She still has this sense of curiosity with Rob. She wants to at least meet up and see if they can be friends.”

While the news delighted KStew and RPatz fans, Gossip Cop shortly after dismissed the rumors as just that. The rumor-debunking site claimed that “a source close to the situation” confirmed that Stewart was neither looking to get back together with Pattinson or thinking of contacting him.

Pattinson and Twigs’ reported split comes just under three months after the actor alluded to a possible breakup on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM show. After telling the radio host he was only “kind of” engaged to the singer, sources told E! Online their relationship was crumbling.

“He is technically still with FKA twigs, but it doesn’t seem like it will last. They were serious at one point, but not anymore. The whole thing with Rob saying they are ‘kind of engaged’ speaks for itself. The relationship has been fizzling out.”

A second insider added, “Rob already feels single. He and FKA have had major distance and tension between them for months now. They really tried to make it work, and it’s not long until the split will be public. They have just been trying to figure out how to sort everything.”
