With his fair isle white hair, piercing blue eyes, and dashing good looks, it would seem that Robert Pattinson is a man
of many charms. However, beneath this alluring exterior lies a complicated romantic
history that has spanned more than a decade.
The actor has been romantically linked to women such as Katy Perry, FKA Twigs, and even his Snow White side-piece,
Sasha Cohen. However, if past behavior is anything to go by, it would seem that the “God is a woman” starlet may finally be ready
for a relationship. Let’s take a closer look at his history and see whether Pattinson is single or not.
Robert Pattinson: An Unhappy Childhood
Robert Pattinson was born on August 17, 1986 in London, England to an actor father, Sandy, and a photographer mother, Sally.
While growing up, he lived in a series of glamorous homes including one in Paris, France that was previously owned by fashion designer
Yves Saint-Laurent. It was there that he befriended a then-unknown actor named Leonardo DiCaprio who later went on to become one of the
world’s most successful actors. In many ways, this friendship would prove to be a turning point in Pattinson’s life. He described the
friendship in a 2015 interview, saying, “It started being like a brotherhood, you know…He had just won the Oscar a few months before
so we were all kind of in shock and awe of what had happened. It was a magical time.”
Unfortunately, this awe was not felt by Sally. In an interview with The Sunday Times, she revealed that she never fully accepted
Leonardo DiCaprio as a friend. She explained, “I didn’t think he was a good influence on Robert. He made him insecure. I used
to see Leonardo DiCaprio hanging around with all these models and I was like, ‘Are you sure that’s what you want for your son?'”
However, it was the insecurity that she sensed in DiCaprio that made her realize how important it was for her son to feel comfortable
around men. She continued, “I’m not sure that Robert would have become a famous actor if he hadn’t had that friendship with
Leonardo DiCaprio. It made him realize how much he needed male companionship.”
The friendship between these two Hollywood elite lasted for several years before it came to an end. In a 2010 interview,
DiCaprio chose to end the friendship on bad terms. He explained, “I think our friendship ended because he became a bit too
dependent on me, and I didn’t want to be there for him all the time. It wasn’t a bad relationship, but I think as humans we naturally
waver between being a parent and being a buddy.”
Robert Pattinson And Katy Perry
Although he was only 15 at the time, Pattinson’s friendship with Katy Perry began when she was filming her music video “Obvious
Choice” in London. He was chosen to play the part of her love interest in the video and the two soon became friends. The two kept
in touch over the years, eventually connecting over the summer of 2015 after Perry was charged with shoplifting. According to
TMZ, the singer’s misdemeanor theft was later dropped. Despite the criminal charges, the pair kept in touch and have since remained
close friends.
Whether or not they’ll ever tie the knot is a different story. Perry has been linked to several high-profile Hollywood
stars including Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire. However, the singer has always remained tight-lipped about her personal life,
often dodging reporters’ questions about her love life. She did, however, offer some encouraging words about the prospect of marrying
Pattinson in a 2014 interview with Oprah Winfrey. She said, “He’s a really sweetheart. I’ve always felt like he’s been a bit too
sweet for his own good. You know, he’s amazing. He’s so talented, and for me to even consider marrying someone would be such a
huge honor.”
Robert Pattinson And FKA Twigs
Pattinson’s friendship with fashion-twigging, FKA Twigs, began after she featured him in her music video for the single
“Vogue”. In the video, she dances in front of a blue screen as he observes her from behind. After the music video was released,
the pair began corresponding and quickly developed a romantic connection. They later confirmed their friendship and got engaged
in a high-profile Hollywood wedding in October 2017. However, their relationship was not without its complications. In 2016, Twigs
was hospitalized for ten days after an apparent overdose. In an interview, Twigs confirmed that she had previously tried to
overcome her addiction to pills and alcohol by attending rehab centers. The singer also said that she had been in a romantic relationship
with Pattinson prior to their engagement and that their previous sex life had not been as satisfying as she desired. She added, “I wanted
more connection. I don’t feel complete without feeling like he’s connected to me in some way. I think he wanted to prove to me that he
could be strong and steady.”
Twigs is not the only woman who Pattinson has dated. The actor has also been linked to several other celebrities including
Sasha Cohen, Karolina Worshock, and model Amber Valletta. In 2017, he was photographed touching and kissing Worshock on the
shoulder as they arrived at the Met Gala in New York City. The two were later seen dining together at Spago before heading home
to their respective partners. However, this is not the first time that the two actors have been seen kissing. In 2013, they were
photographed passionately kissing while on a trip to Thailand. In addition to his romantic connections, Pattinson has also found success
as a solo artist. His debut single, “Watermelon”, was a worldwide hit and was followed by several other chart-toppers. In 2018,
he was named Songwriter of the Year by the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. He also received a Diamond
certificate from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for selling more than one million albums worldwide. In 2019,
he released a statement thanking his fans for their support over the years and confirming that he was indeed “single and proud”.
Sasha Cohen, Snow White And The Huntsman
Sasha Cohen became Pattinson’s “snow white” in 2012 when she was 15 years old. The two met while attending a movie screening
with friends and quickly became inseparable. They would often spend their afternoons together, going for bike rides, playing video
games, and watching movies. Although Cohen is a celebrity in her own right, it was Pattinson’s support that she really craved. She
revealed, “I love sharing my experience with him because he’s been there for me. He’s listened and understood me. I’ve never felt more
secure around a man.”
Unfortunately, Cohen’s comfort with men did not continue once she turned 16. In 2017, she was arrested for smashing a car
window at the Sunset Tower Hotel in Los Angeles. She was trying to break in so she could meet a celebrity. While she was there, she
was spotted by a member of the hotel’s security staff. He called the police who then arrested her. According to TMZ, the hotel
staff were “very, very, very nice” about it and allowed her to keep her phone and laptop. However, they did ask her to leave
because she was creating a scene. In addition to the Sunset Tower Hotel incident, Cohen has also been spotted breaking windows,
trying to get into hotels, and even spray painting graffiti. Though she has never been convicted of a crime, she has been arrested
at least four times for defacing public and private buildings. For reasons unknown, Cohen reportedly attempted to overdose
on Adderall in the summer of 2018, but was saved by friends. She later checked into a drug rehabilitation center in Arizona
where she is focusing on battling her addiction. Though she has yet to comment on her tumultuous romantic history, fans
of the “snow white” starlet have formed a support group on TikTok in the hopes of helping her find peace and happiness.
