When asked by Celebs Sunday if his mates ever call him Edward (Cullen, the character he plays in the Twilight movies), Rob replied: ‘People have called me Edward – not my family, that would be weird!’

‘My mates might have done it to rib me. They don’t really know about Twilight, but some of them found out about the R-Pattz thing, so now one of them always calls me R-Pattz, which he thinks is hilarious.’
