The secretive pair have been the subject of are-they, aren't-they rumours almost since the Twilight Saga began, after their explosive on screen chemistry looked a bit too good to be true.

Both Kristen and Robert refused to be drawn into any discussion about their relationship. Until now.

In a shock revelation at the BAFTAs after-party, sheepish Robert confirmed their relationship, admitting to the Sun: ‘It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes.'

But the Twilight star stressed the difficulties of being such a famous couple, which might explain the lengths they had previously gone to avoid being spotted together.

‘We have to do all this stuff to avoid attention,' he said.

We can't arrive at the same time because of the fans. It goes crazy.

‘This was supposed to be a public appearance as a couple but it's impossible. We are here together and it's a public event but it's not easy.'

And it really wasn't easy for the pair, who both attended the BAFTAs on Sunday, but went to great lengths to stay separate.

Kristen, who collected the Orange Rising Star prize, was only able to attend the special dinner with the presence of six security guards.

But insiders say once inside the after-party, held at the exclusive Grosvenor House Hotel, the pair were all over each other, and were snapped sneaking out together around midnight.
