Wedding Bells: Was Robert Pattinson Planning to Propose to Kristen Stewart?

Kristen Stewart shocked us all last week when she admitted that she had been cheating on Robert Pattinson, and as if that wasn’t bad enough, we have some news this morning that will seriously tug on your heartstrings…

The Daily Star Sunday reports that less than three weeks ago, a very loved-up R-Patz went shopping for an engagement ring with Kristen at the Beverly Hills store of Neil Lane, a man known for blinging up celebrities.

“They looked so much in love. He could not stop staring at her as she tried on gold rings,” said a shop assistant.

“They told Neil they didn’t want anything traditional and he was planning to create a stunning custom piece for her on a budget of around half-a-million dollars,” the shop assistant added.

Speaking a few days before the shopping trip, Robert told an American women’s magazine that he was no longer “scared of marriage” and that he felt “ready for anything with Kristen.”

When Rob was asked if they were likely to start a family any time soon, he responded: “Yes, of course. Definitely.”

In happier times: R-Patz and K-Stew.

We feel for you R-Patz, we really do...So how is Rob holding up now? Does he feel any better?

“He’s still numb with shock. He’s gone from happily telling everyone she was ‘the one’ to just burying his head in his hands in despair,” said a close friend of the actor, speaking last night.

“He won’t go back. He feels utterly betrayed. There’s nothing Kristen can say that will change his mind,” the friend added.

There’s nothing that Kristen can say, but according to reports, Rob wants to hear every tiny detail of the secret trysts between Kristen and her bit on the side, director Rupert Sanders.

“Rob wants to have a man to man chat with Rupert to find out exactly what happened between him and Kristen,” said a source, speaking to Radar Online.

“Kristen has already betrayed his trust by cheating so he can’t be sure that she will tell him exactly what went on between her and Rupert. He’s not ready to talk with Kristen, it’s too painful,” the source added.

Are we likely to see a showdown between Rob and Rupert in the coming days? It’s looking very possible…

In the meantime it’s a good thing that Rob has some support to help him through this difficult time.
