They rekindled their romance after their relationship was rocked by a cheating scandal when Kristen Stewart was caught on camera kissing her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders.
But it seems that despite his attempts to move on, Robert Pattinson couldn’t quite get over the incident.
New reports have emerged which claim that the hunk has dumped his former Twilight co-star.
Is this the end of Robsten? Reports have emerged that Robert Pattinson has dumped Kristen Stewart
The actor allegedly broke the news to Kristen this past weekend following a tense time over the holiday period, it has been reported by The Sun.
Fans of the once-golden couple will certainly have noticed the lack of time the pair have been spending together recently.
The last time the couple were spotted in public together was on November 27, when they were seen catching a flight out of New York’s JFK airport together.
Low profile: The last time the couple were pictured together was seven weeks ago, as they arrived into Los Angeles from New York on November 27
Robert Pattinson went solo on the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday, with Kristen nowhere to be seen.
However counter reports emerged from Us Weekly claiming that the 22-year-old turned up at a Soho House after-party at 1am, where she ran over to greet her beloved.
‘They hung out and stayed close for over an hour,’ a source told the publication, adding that the stars then left with a group of friends.

Kristen was seen clutching onto Robert’s jacket as she arrived into Los Angeles from New York on Saturday.
Candid photos of Kristen and Rupert were published in July 2012, which led to Robert calling time on their four-year relationship.
But the pair were back together in October, just in time to promote the final instalment of the Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn: Part 2.
‘Robsten’ are believed to have spent Christmas apart, although they were together for Thanksgiving, which they celebrated in Robert’s native England.

California Dreamin': Tamara Ecclestone rocks her incredible bikini body and killer tan in a sexy shoot as she continues her LA takeover
By Louise Saunders
She had a turbulent year in 2012 after splitting from her long-term love.
And after spending increasing amounts of time with her pregnant sister, Petra, in Los Angeles, Tamara Ecclestone looks as though she plans to take the States by storm.
Showing off her incredible bikini body in a sexy new photoshoot, the 28-year-old heiress paraded her stunning curves and killer tan for all to see.
Bikini body: Tamara Ecclestone showed off her incredible figure and killer tan as she took part in a sexy shoot in Los Angeles
The brunette socialite preened and posed to perfection as she showed off her animal magnetism in a skimpy zebra print bikini with gold chain detailing while getting to work on set in Los Angeles.
Leaning up against a wall seductively, the daughter of Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone ensured her toned and tanned physique were the centre of attention as she worked the camera like a true professional.
After a brief cosmetic touch-up, where she was laughing and joking with her make-up artist, Tamara changed into swimsuit number two.
Posing up a storm: The 28-year-old heiress looked like an utter natural as she got to work on set
Working it: The brunette socialite preened and posed to perfection as she showed off her animal magnetism in a skimpy zebra pint bikini with gold chain detailing
Leaving even less to the imagination, the barely-there zig-zag Missoni two-piece did little to contain the Billion $$ Girl star's incredible curves.
Teetering on a pair of skyscraper heels, the heiress completed her look with her long voluminous brunette locks flowing around her shoulders and dramatic smokey eye make-up.
Tamara seemed to be in great spirits as she got to work on the shoot, giggling away as an army of assistants catered to her every wish.
Fun in the sun: Tamara looked happy and relaxed as she chatted with her make-up artist during a break
Feeling a chill? The daughter of Bernie Ecclestone wrapped up during a break from shooting in an oversized coat
And the socialite seemed keen to get to work on the three-day shoot, tweeting: 'Another coffee needed then time for first photo shoot of 2013 #newbeginnings.'
She later added: 'Great shoot today @alanstrutt nice to see you x.'
With her younger sister Petra, 24, - who is currently expecting her first child with husband James Stunt - already based in Los Angeles, Tamara is reportedly eyeing up the lavish Fleur de Lys estate in Bel Air to add to her existing property portfolio.

All the single ladies: Tamara admitted she is enjoying the single life after splitting from long-term love Omar Khyami last year
Undeterred by the mansion's £78million price tag, the star is said to be planning a relocation to the US in the not too distant future.
But although Petra is pregnant and happily married, Tamara is embracing single life for the chance to learn more about herself.
Speaking to the MailOnline about her relationship status recently, Tamara said: 'There’s no men in my life at the moment.
Dressed to impress: Tamara wore a black and nude optical illusion dress as she dined out at Madeo restaurant in Los Angeles on Tuesday night
Date night: Tamara enjoyed an evening out with a mystery man, with the pair dining together before saying goodbye with a peck on the cheek
'I’m not looking for love but if it happens, it happens, and that would be nice. It happens when you least expect it.
'I’ve always been in long-term relationships and this is the first time I’ve lived alone and been single and it’s actually good to be able to be alone.
'I’m not looking, but I’m not adverse to the idea. I’m just having fun.'

'He keeps knocking me up!' Jessica Simpson reveals she has tried to marry Eric Johnson twice... but keeps getting pregnant
By Cassie Carpenter, Jade Watkins and Iona Kirby
They have been engaged for two years, and Jessica Simpson has revealed she and Eric Johnson have set two separate wedding dates.
However the star admitted that she hasn't had the opportunity to walk down the aisle - because both times she then fell pregnant.
'We've had two different wedding dates, but he keeps knocking me up,' she said when she appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Tuesday night.

Miaow: Jessica Simpson displayed her very ample cleavage and pregnancy curves in a low-cut leopard print dress for an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Tuesday night
'We're doing it very backwards, I know... I'll just keep my legs crossed, I guess, this time.'
The 32-year-old, who is pregnant with her second child and confessed it was not planned, displayed her blossoming figure in a low-cut leopard print clingy dress, which displayed plenty of her ample cleavage and clung to her tiny baby bump.
'Apparently it was a part of God's plan for my life,' she laughed as she chatted about her new pregnancy. 'I was extremely shocked because I was going through a lot of hormonal changes, trying to get back to the old, vibrant Jessica. You know, it was kind of like a one-night stand. And it happened, all over again!'
The glowing star is watching what she eats this time around, after gaining what she said was 'a lot more than doctors would recommend.'

Jessica admitted: 'I was really happy to be pregnant and I didn't ever step on the scale. I didn't realise you could gain that much weight that quickly.'
She added: 'I didn't really make any healthy good decisions.'
The singer and actress, who recently lost 50lbs on Weight Watchers, paired her racy ensemble with sky-high black satin heels and her platinum blonde hair was perfectly coiffed.
After waving to the crowd upon her entrance onstage, Jessica was animated as she spoke to Leno.

Glowing: The star certainly appears to be benefitting from that pregnancy glow
It was recently revealed that Jessica is already plotting her return to the small screen in a new sitcom pilot for NBC, which will be inspired by her life, and the blonde was happy to divulged about it.
When asked if it was about 'a girl who keeps getting pregnant', Jessica replied: 'Yes, and how that girl deals with that and everything else. I will be playing myself, which is pretty easy.'
She went on: 'We don't have a name yet, we're just now in the process of casting everyone, doing the pilot. I will be playing myself but we'll have actors playing Eric and my dad. That'll be funny.'
According to Deadline, the engaged star is excited to produce and star in the single-camera, half-hour series.
Having a laugh: Happy Jessica beamed as she chatted away with the talk show host
Plenty to talk about: Jessica certainly has a lot to talk about as she is currently pregnant with her second child
'I often find myself thinking that no one could ever make up the things that actually happen in my life — so between the real-life elements and a great team of writers, I think we’ll have people laughing!' Simpson said.
Executive producers for the pilot are already dubbing Jessica a 'modern day Lucy' - including Nick Bakay, Ben Silverman, Jimmy Fox, and Jessica’s father/manager Joe Simpson.
Silverman explained: 'From running a fashion empire to wrangling her public image as a new mom, we see Jessica’s character approach a variety of "everyday" circumstances that will get audiences laughing out loud.'
As many will know, this isn't the first time Jessica has dabbled in reality.

The Dukes Of Hazzard actress has also starred in her own docuseries called The Price of Beauty as well as appearing in little sister Ashlee's reality show.
Back in 2004, Jessica filmed a pilot called Jessica where she played a pop star-turned-TV news anchor, but ABC opted not to pick the series up.
Meanwhile, the Weight Watchers spokesperson and her fiancé Eric Johnson have been holidaying with their eight-month-old daughter Maxwell in Hawaii.

The Fashion Star mentor admitted she feels 'awful' when her work limits the amount of time she can spend with her daughter.
'Motherhood is the best thing I've ever experienced - and the most challenging,' Simpson told People magazine.
'On some of the days of Fashion Star, I'm awake before Maxwell is awake, and I'm not home until she's already back to sleep. That's only happened about four times, but it makes the day awful.'
She continued, 'I definitely need to see my baby. I get really sad if I don't get to see her. And then when Maxwell sees me, she just stares at me and touches my face. I can tell she missed me. That breaks my heart.'

Jodie Foster was the talk of the Golden Globes after an emotional speech while accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement.

'While I'm here being all confessional, I guess I just have just a sudden urge to say something that I've never really been able to air in public,' Miss Foster said with a smile.
'[It's] a declaration that I'm a little nervous about – but maybe not quite as nervous as my publicist right now. I'm just going to put it out there – loud and proud.'
She paused and asked the crowd for support before finally saying: 'I am single.'
She received a boost from her close friend Mel Gibson, who offered a wolf-whistle from her table in the audience.

Moving: Anne Hathaway and Julianne Moore were close to tears as Jodie paid tribute to her mother
She continued: 'This is not going to be a big coming out speech tonight because I already did my coming out about a thousand years ago back in the stone age – in those very quaint days when a fragile girl would open up to trusted friends and family and coworkers and then gradually proudly to everyone who knew her.
'But now apparently I'm told that every celebrity is expected to honor the details of their private life with a press conference, a fragrance and a primetime reality show.'
She thanked her 'heroic co-parent, my ex partner in love, but righteous soul sister in life. My confessor... most beloved BFF of 20 years, Cydney Bernard.
Emotional: Jodie thanked her former partner Cydney Bernard and her mother Evelyn 'Brandy' Almond, both pictured in 2007
'Thank you, Cyd. I am so proud of our modern family, our amazing sons, Charlie and Kit who are my reason to breathe and to evolve. ... Boys, in case you didn't know it, this song, like all of this, this song is for you.'
Her sons smiled proudly as they watched from the audience.
In a moment that moved most in the audience to tears, she paid tribute to her 84-year-old mother, Evelyn 'Brandy' Almond, who suffers from dementia.
She said: 'I love you, I love you, I love you and I hope if I say this three times, it will magically and perfectly enter into your soul, fill you with grace and the joy of knowing that you did good in this life.'
My entourage: She was joined at the red carpet event by Gibson and her sons
Fighting back tears, she added: 'You're a great mom. Please take that with you when you're finally okay to go.'
She appeared to hint at retirement at the close of her speech, saying: 'This feels like the end of one era and the beginning of something else – scary and exciting.'
Backstage, the star denied she was stepping away from the public eye, adding: 'Oh no, I could never stop acting. You'd have to drive me behind a team of horses.'
Miss Foster publicly hinted at her sexuality for the first time in 2007 when she paid tribute to 'my beautiful Cydney' at Women in Entertainment event - referring to her then partner Bernard.
The former couple met on the set of the film Sommersby in 1993 and had two sons.
Miss Foster has never revealed the identity of the father or the circumstances of their conception.
As with most questions about her personal life, the actress has refused to comment on gossip that the father was an old university friend from Yale, who is also gay.
Miss Foster landed her first job in a sun cream commercial when she was three years old and appeared in 50 films before she left school, including her shocking breakthrough role as a child prostitute in Taxi Driver with Robert De Niro.
She became one of the most successful adult stars in Hollywood by taking on gutsy roles like rape victim Sarah Tobias in The Accused in 1988 and Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs three years later, both of which won her Best Actress Oscars.

Argo also claimed the directing prize for Ben Affleck, a prize that normally bodes well for an Academy Award win - except he missed out on an Oscar nomination this time.
And as he took the stage to claim the prizes, there was one woman to whom he had immense thanks for supporting him throughout the trials of its production: his wife, Jennifer Garner.
