They may have broken up, but they sure did bring in the big bucks on the big screen!
Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were just crowned the highest earning romantic on-screen couple by Forbes magazine, bringing in a whopping $1.17 billion at the box office with the Twilight films over the last three years.
"There is something unique about these films in the way that people have attached themselves to them. The movies are unconventional, and you have the added element that the two people are a couple in real life," a rep for Forbes explains.
Channing Tatum and his The Vow co-star Rachel McAdams came in second, grossing $125 million domestically for their tear jerker.
Interestingly enough, Pattinson and Tatum both made the list twice with two different co-stars!
Here's how the rest of the list unfolded:
- 1. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson - $1.17 billion
2. Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum - $125 million
3. Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler - $103 million
