Overview
- Pattinson, asked at Thursday's Rome premiere which zodiac sign is a relationship red flag, said “Aries” and immediately added that he was joking and had picked at random.
- Clips posted on X led many users to read the line as a jab at Kristen Stewart, an Aries, with comments including “KRISTEN STEWART SHADE—” and “He’s so messy.”
- Entertainment outlets amplified the moment and also noted his quick clarification, and there has been no response from Stewart.
- The actors’ current lives add context: Pattinson has been with Suki Waterhouse since 2018 and they welcomed a child in 2024, while Stewart married Dylan Meyer in April 2025.
- The online chatter resurfaced their 2009–2013 relationship and the widely reported 2012 incident involving director Rupert Sanders that preceded their split.
