We had to wear our galoshes to work today here at Skin Central, because the streets were flooded with the salty tears of Twi-hards devastated at the betrayal of their Prince Charming Robert Pattinson by Princess of Pout Kristen Stewart . You’d think they’d be happy–after all, now they have the opportunity to scoop Rpatz up in their arms, dry his glittery tears, and make him believe in love again. But that’s the difference between Twi-hards and the rest of us. Anyway, the man that Kstew hooked up with is her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders , whom photographic evidence reveals went down on her muff of brown in the front seat of a car parked in the canyons of LA. (Guess he took “yodeling in the canyon” literally!) But to us, the real shocking bit is that Rupert was willing to jeopardize his relationship with his super-hot model wife Liberty Ross . How hot, exactly? Egotastic has dug up more pics of Liberty posing topless (as top models tend to do), and we’ve got them after the jump!
Somewhat lost amidst the shock and sadness of Kristen Stewart cheating on Robert Pattinson is the other side of this dishonest coin: Rupert Sanders, with whom Stewart made out on at least one occasion, is a married man with two children. And in an ironic bit of timing, his wife – 33-year old model Liberty Ross – opened up to YOU Magazine just two weeks ago about her marriage to the director. It’s not excuse whatsoever, but there clearly have been problems at home. “I romanticized domesticity for a while, and loved having a shopping list of groceries stuck to the fridge for the first time,” Ross told the publication. “But moving here 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.” With Sanders off filming Snow White and the Huntsman , Ross admits she got very lonely. “I would never say out loud that I am raising my children alone, but a lot of the time it has felt like that.” Ross also lamented how she went from working in the modeling industry with stalwarts such as Karl Lagerfeld and John Galliano… to “living on an isolated hilltop with my husband gone most of the time.” However, she ended the interview on a positive note: “That’s why everything feels so amazing now. We rode through the really hard times and we stuck it out.” Yeah. About that… Sanders issued his own apology yesterday after news of his dalliance with Stewart broke. He said: “My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together.”
If a new report is to be believed, the beginning of the end for Robsten is upon us. A People insider tells that publication Robert Pattinson has moved out of the Los Angeles home he’s been sharing with Kristen Stewart and: “I’m not sure they’ll be able to recover from this.” THIS , of course, refers to Stewart’s admitted affair with Rupert Sanders, which comes complete with sordid photos and a scorned wife and young kids. Pattinson has not spoken publicly about the incident, but this same source says he’s in seclusion and is simply “heartbroken and angry.” We’d have to imagine so. Back in April, Robert gave an interview in which he questioned why anyone would ever cheat and added that when he’s in a relationship, he’s “100% in it.” How ironic and unfortunate that those words now come back to haunt him. Hang in there, RP!

Robert Pattinson is yet to speak out regarding Kristen Stewart’s admitted affair with Rupert Sanders . But although it wouldn’t be difficult to imagine the pain this actor is in regardless, he actually expressed his take on infidelity in the April edition of Italian Vanity Fair . “There’s a thing I’ve never got, that is, why do people cheat?” Pattinson asked in the article. “I can understand the impulse, but not how you can keep two relationships going at the same time for long. This usually happens to people with children.” Sanders, of course, does have two children. But Stewart claims her dalliance with the director was a one-time thing, a ” momentary indiscretion .” “I’m not the casual-affair kind of guy,” Rob also told the magazine. “If I choose to be with someone it’s because I really want it. When I have a relationship, I’m 100% into it.” Stewart, as these makeout photos prove, can’t say the same. What do you think? Should Robert forgive Kristen?
There’s never a good time to engage in an affair, but Kristen Stewart’s romantic interlude with Rupert Sanders has really come at an unfortunate time for the actress. She’ll soon embark on a promotional tour for Breaking Dawn Part 2 ; boyfriend Robert Pattinson recently gave an interview in which he wondered why people cheat ; and Jimmy Kimmel Live just ran a segment in which famous people read mean Tweets directed at them by the general public. And, yes, Stewart is among those featured. It’s hilarious stuff all around – we especially enjoy the selected message shared by Katy Perry – but we somehow doubt Stewart would agree to do it again. Fan reaction to the star these days likely isn’t anything to laugh at…

In the wake of the Kristen Stewart cheating bomb that dropped today , at least one PR pro thinks Stewart’s subsequent apology stinks of forced reparations . Meanwhile, gossip maven Lainey Lui zeroes in on the repercussions of the Twilight star issuing such a perplexingly earnest-sounding mea culpa after years of fiercely protecting her private life from outside eyes: “Kristen Stewart has been neutered. She’s officially owned now. She belongs to them. And she belongs to us.” Continued, from Lainey Gossip : “You don’t want to answer questions about your private life? But you just gave me every reason to ask about your private life because you told ME how sorry you are, sobbing through your words, that you may have ruined your love. One day you’re diving into the dumpster avoiding photographers when I want to see a picture of you holding hands with your boyfriend, the next day you’re begging me to understand that you made a bad judgement call, essentially pleading for my forgiveness. Who turns down power when it’s presented to them? Certainly not me. Certainly not us.” Lainey’s been covering the Twilight beat within the larger celebrity world for years now, and she’s always come across as one of the realest-talking gossip fixtures in the biz. Here she nails Stewart’s PR predicament precisely on its head: In a nutshell, one of Hollywood’s most hounded celebrities has uncharacteristically and without prompting pulled back the curtains on her private life — and how — and judging by how her People exclusive apology reads it seems like she was thinking about as strategically as a plaintive, emotional teenager, not the megastar who just months ago swore she didn’t care about those who “want to turn truth into shit.” What’s fascinating here to celeb-watchers is that Stewart felt she needed to apologize publicly at all after becoming quite adept at protecting her private life. Then again, that kind of 24-7 privacy-guarding would be exhausting for anyone. But if anyone demanded an apology, it wasn’t necessarily the fans, though it likely helped stem the tide of vicarious betrayal many have vocalized. So why do it?
