Meet Robert Pattinson's new girlfriend! Actor is dating British singer FKA Twigs... and it's 'the real deal'
Sorry ladies – Robert Pattinson is apparently off the market once again.
The actor is said to be dating FKA Twigs, a British singer whose real name is Tahliah Barnett.
The pair were pictured heading into the Bowery hotel together in New York last week, and according to The Sun have been an item for around a month.

New romance: Robert Pattinson is apparently dating singer FKA Twigs, who he is seen with in New York last week
‘It's the real deal between Rob and Tahliah,’ a source claimed to the newspaper. ‘They had been able to keep their relationship secret until recently, but they're already smitten.
‘He’s been taking her on dates for the last month or so, and has even flown her out to stay with him in New York. He also loves going to her gigs.’
Of course, 28-year-old Robert famously dated his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart on and off for years, and FKA Twigs allegedly doesn’t want to be pitted against her.

Big Apple date: The rumoured couple were seen going for a stroll before entering the Bowery hotel last Wednesday
‘The main thing for Tahliah is that the relationship remains low-key. She wants to be known for her music, not just as “Robert Pattinson’s girlfriend”. She's worried about being bogged down by constant comparisons to Kristen.’
Tahliah, who hails from Gloucestershire but lives in London, released her debut album LP1 last month.
The singer has already had success in the industry after releasing two extended plays in the past two years, and before that worked as a backup dancer.

A source told Us Weekly that Tahlia, 26, was introduced to Robert through mutual friends and ‘thinks he is unbelievably handsome’. Another insider added: ‘It's early [on] but they're having fun.’
Robert has already introduced FKA Twigs to his friends and they were joined by Tom Sturridge and another pal during their Big Apple outing last week.
The hunky actor is gearing up for the New York Film Festival later this month, where his movie Maps To The Stars will make its US debut after having premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
