   Photos confirm Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are back together after cheating scandal, just in time to promote “Twilight”

Following July’s cheating scandal and recent rumors of a reconciliation, confirmation has come that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are totally, truly back together again. They have already been photographed together by the paparazzi.

As the video report below from HollyScoop notes, these two can’t hide for that much longer, because the final “Twilight” movie, “Breaking Dawn Part 2” will arrive in theaters on November 16 and the official promo campaign must start soon.

Or has it started already?, voices online are asking.

Given that there were some serious doubts about how legit the cheating story was (considering that Kristen knows how to hide from the paps, it was unbelievable she would be caught off guard in such a compromising position as that of kissing another man than her boyfriend of 3+ years), people are now wondering whether this entire charade wasn’t just a PR stunt from the get-go.

In other words, Kristen never cheated on Robert with Rupert Sanders, who directed her in “Snow White and the Huntsman,” and the incriminatory photo op was set up by Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the “Twilight” juggernaut.

“Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart continued their public display of forgiveness... hanging out together for lunch in Hollywood,” TMZ writes, based on photos snapped by X17 paps.

“This was the 2nd time in 24 hours they were seen together around LA... just 3 months after Kristen admitted cheating with director Rupert Sanders – but, even more telling, exactly one month before the release of the last ‘Twilight’ movie. Hmm...,” the e-zine goes on to say.

That Summit would hardly need this kind of promotion for a film that’s practically selling itself – and would most certainly make a killing at the box office when it’s out, shattering all previous records by the force of the mere fact that it’s the last in the series – is arguable.

Then again, it’s also very possible. After all, stranger things have happened, and fauxmances and media breakups and scandals are a dime a dozen when it comes to promoting a new movie or project.

Whether Summit is involved or just the two stars’ PR, we will never know. However, they do say that there’s never smoke without a fire and we know for a fact that’s nowhere as true as it’s in Hollywood / showbiz.

So, what do you think? Could the scandal have been set up for promotional purposes by people interested in keeping these two young stars at the forefront?
