R-Patz, who?!

Kristen Stewart is notoriously guarded with her personal life, but she couldn't help but gush about girlfriend Alicia Cargile in her new interview with Elle UK.

"Right now I'm just really in love with my girlfriend. We've broken up a couple of times and gotten back together, and this time I was like, 'Finally, I can feel again,'" she confessed to the mag.

So why is the actress suddenly being so open about her love life?

"When I was dating a guy I was hiding everything that I did because everything personal felt like it was immediately trivialized, so I didn't like it. We were turned into these characters and placed into this ridiculous comic book, and I was like, 'That's mine. You're making my relationship something that it's not.' I didn't like that," she explained.

"But then it changed when I started dating a girl. I was like, 'Actually, to hide this provides the implication that I'm not down with it or I'm ashamed of it' so I had to alter how I approached being in public. It opened my life up and I'm so much happier," she added.

Out and proud! We love it!
