Well, it finally happened. The will-they, won’t-they drama of the reunited co-stars and lovers, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson peaked last night as the couple appeared side by side for the first time in public since this summer’s infidelity scandal.

Rather than a red-carpet function, the pair appeared with their co-star from the Twilight franchise, Taylor Lautner (although, poor Taylor, no-one’s really interested in him at the moment are they?) for a sit down chat on MTV to promote The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II.

After appearing earlier in the day at separate event in Hollywood in a dainty grey mini-dress by Bec & Bridge – an Australian label designed by Becky Cooper and Bridget Yorston – Kristen changed into a comfy-looking black and blue stripey sweater with rolled-up jeans and white pumps.

The couple looked happy and relaxed as they answered the vampire-related questions. Although the subject was never mentioned, their appearance seemed to transmit the message: scandal? What scandal?
