    Director friend of Kristen Stewart defends her affair with Rupert Sanders on Twitter

    It seems like everyone has an opinion on the Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson scandal, and now a producer friend of the actress has waded in on the debate, claiming Kristen's affair with Rupert Sanders was not sexual.

    In a series of tweets, film producer Giovanni Agnelli defended the actress, who starred in his film Welcome To The Rileys, claiming rumours of an affair were 'lies.'

    'I'll say right now what the manipulative media isn't saying... Kristen Stewart did not have any type of sex with Rupert Sanders,' tweeted Giovanni Agnelli.

    'If one of your friends in real life was hurting, and lots of people were being cruel. Wouldn't you ask them to please stop? Honestly?' he wrote

    'If you've ever used the word Trampire you're a mindless pathetic piece of s***.' he added.

    The Italian director also hinted he knew where Kristen Stewart was hiding out following a 'twitition' by her fans pledging their support to her following the affair.
