Robert Pattinson: 'I'm Not Interested in Selling My Personal Life'

Robert Pattinson – live in Times Square!
Hundreds of fans lined up overnight to see the star arrive at the Good Morning America studios on Wednesday, but those hoping to hear Pattinson, 26, pour out his broken heart over his long-term girlfriend Kristen Stewart cheating on him with her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders might have walked away somewhat frustrated – and yet still enlightened.
Referring to the cheating scandal as the elephant in the room that could not be avoided, GMA co-anchor George Stephanopoulos pressed Pattinson on the subject, with the actor refusing the bait for as long as he possibly could. (He did, however, take one thing from the anchor: his his favorite cereal, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which Stephanopoulos presented to him at the top of the interview.)
"I've never been interested in selling my personal life," said Pattinson, who said he was there to promote his new movie, Cosmopolis, which opens Friday. Still, the actor acknowledged that his being on TV made him a target for personal questions.

Kristen Stewart & Director's Fling: Brother's Account Is False, Says Source

Don't believe everything you read.
Following a new report in British newspaper The People (which is owned by the Mirror and not related to PEOPLE magazine) that director Rupert Sanders's affair with Kristen Stewart was more than a one-time fling, a source very close to his wife Liberty Ross and her family tells PEOPLE all quotes from that story are false.
"Contrary to inaccurate reports, neither Liberty Ross nor any member of her family has spoken to the media," the source tells PEOPLE. "Quotes that are being attributed to the Ross family have been completely fabricated."
The People report quotes a man purporting to be Liberty's brother, Leopold Ross, who says, "[Rupert and Kristen's affair took place] from the last half of filming and all through post-production, clear into last week."
Editors at The People stand by their story. Sources have maintained to PEOPLE that the fling between the actress and director was not drawn out.

Originally posted 07/26/2012 05:30PM
Just two weeks before news broke of Kristen Stewart's fling with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, his wife spoke of early troubles in their marriage.
"I romanticized domesticity for a while, and loved having a shopping list of groceries stuck to the fridge," actress Liberty Ross told YOU magazine.
"But moving [from London to Los Angeles] and starting a life all over again was a lot harder than I had anticipated. I just didn’t think it would be as isolating and daunting as it turned out to be."
