They have long denied being more than friends but, it seems, their (not so secret) relationship has finally been exposed to the fans and the world at large. Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are romantically involved, as photos snapped of them at the airport in Paris, France, show them holding hands, a thing that has never happened before, RobsessedPattinson says.

Usually, the Robert Pattinson fansite in question avoids posting photos that are in any way related to the “Twilight” actors’ personal life, as well as snaps taken by paparazzi with a zoom lens. However, this one time, it made an exception because what we could be dealing with here is possible confirmation that Robert and Kristen are an item. As some fans have already said to this, cue to the millions of screaming female fans of Pattinson from around the world.

The paparazzi shots made available on every “Twilight” site on the Internet, as well as on most celebrity blogs, show the two walking towards the plane on an airport in France, after doing a press junket for the upcoming “New Moon,” out in theaters on November 20. Although most of the photos are grainy and poorly lit, in all of them it is crystal clear that they are holding hands – or, rather, that Kristen is holding his hand (or arm in other photos).

Granted, to the untrained eye, this might seem like not much, but, for true “Twilight” fans, this is something they’ve been dreaming of – or dreading, depending on perspective – for about a whole year now. This was about when the first rumors of Stewart and Pattinson dating began to emerge, and also when the two began to flatly infirm them. Seeing these two stars walking hand in hand may be, for millions of fans, confirmation that they have finally taken the beautiful love story they live onscreen as Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, and transposed it in real life as well.

Then again, since they’re good friends, it could very well be that Kristen’s taking Robert’s arm was nothing more than a common gesture with them, skeptics say on dedicated forums. Either way, fans will probably know for certain soon, as either of the two is bound to make some kind of comment about it in upcoming press meetings.
