After a logistically convenient but also genuinely loving relationship with Twilight costar Robert Pattinson ended in a shroud of scandal, Kristen Stewart started dating women.
Which, inevitably, made her more comfortable in her own skin amid her complicated relationship with fame.
“When I was dating a guy I was hiding everything that I did because everything personal felt like it was immediately trivialized, so I didn’t like it,” the actress told Elle UK in 2016. “We were turned into these characters and placed into this ridiculous comic book, and I was like, ‘That’s mine. You’re making my relationship something that it’s not.’ I didn’t like that.”
Being proudly public with her girlfriend at the time “opened my life up,” she added, “and I’m so much happier.”
But while that relationship ended not long after she gave that interview, Kristen met screenwriter Dylan Meyer in 2019 (for the second time, five years after they vibed on a film set but didn’t stay in touch) and never looked back.
The actress revealed they were engaged in 2021 and they tied the knot at a Mexican restaurant near their L.A. home on April 20, 2025.
