Twilight co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have been told to refrain from seeing each other in their own time, for the sake of their burgeoning careers

Twilight lovebirds Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have been banned from spending time together off-screen - by their management.

The co-stars, who were last seen side-by-side on the Isle of Wight on New Year's Eve, have been told to cut back on the time they spend together for the sake of their careers.

According to sources, each of the actors' camps believe neither has time to focus on anything but their work.

The marginally busier of the two, Robert, 23, has three films due for release including April's Remember Me, in which he plays a misguided college student dealing with a succession of family tragedies.

Kristen, 19, is also working on a couple of her own projects, having already wrapped filming on Eclipse, the third Twilight movie in which she'll share the screen with Robert.

If both parties are to take notice of the intervention, we won't see them together again until the promotional tour in July.

Unless, of course, true love prevails and they become the next real-life Romeo and Juliet...
