Kristen Stewart: 'I don't try to keep my personal life private anymore'
Kristen Stewart is no longer concerned about keeping her love life private because she doesn't pay attention to public opinion.
The Twilight star is known for being fiercely private about her personal life, going out of her way to keep her relationships out of the public eye as much as possible.
However, as she has gotten older, the 26-year-old has become more
relaxed about what does and doesn't make it into the headlines,
because people's comments about her lifestyle don't hold much
weight with her.
"I wouldn't talk about who I (have sex with) and how I (have sex
with them) unless I was friends with you," she tells the Los
Angeles Times. "That's weird, but then, at the same time, I've
discovered a way to live my life and not feel like I'm hiding at
all. And I think that's pretty apparent for anyone who cares - not
that everyone does. But I think that if you had been tracking it in
any way, it's more apparent that I'm more relaxed than I used to
be."
"Somehow, as I got older, I reoriented my mind," she continues.
"I've gotten better at assessing people's motivations. It's not
something I have to overtly think about - what I share and what I
don't share. It's a natural thing. Whereas, when I was younger, I
was like, 'You're gonna screw me over.' Now I'm like, 'Whatever.
You can't'."
Kristen famously dated British actor Robert Pattinson after meeting
on the set of the popular vampire film franchise in 2008. They
split in 2013, months after the actress' infamous fling with her
married Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders in the
summer of 2012.
Robert is now engaged to British singer FKA twigs, while Kristen
was most recently said to have reunited with her ex-girlfriend,
former personal assistant Alicia Cargile, after they were spotted
together in France in May (16). They were previously reported to
have dated last summer (15). Kristen was also briefly linked to
French musician and actress Soko earlier this year (16).
