The hidden side behind Peter Facinelli’s perfect facade: The shock of being betrayed in love hue01

T33

Sorry, Twilight fans! Whether you were Team Edward or Team Jacob, both of them are happily in love in real life.

The supernatural teen romance followed Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) as she navigated life in Forks, Wash., including getting involved in one of the most talked about love triangles of all time with vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner).

While Bella and Edward’s love story unfolded on-screen, Stewart and Pattinson, who the film’s director told PEOPLE had “great chemistry” during the audition, began dating in real life. After being on-and-off for four years, the pair went their separate ways in 2013.

Years later, the former costars have since found love with other people. Stewart married her wife, Dylan Meyer, in April 2025, while Pattinson has been engaged to singer Suki Waterhouse since December 2023. Meanwhile, in November 2022, Taylor married Taylor “Tay” Lautner.

From one couple who recently got married to another who both portrayed on-screen vampires, here are the real-life partners of the Twilight cast.

Although Stewart’s character Bella was momentarily torn between Edward and Jacob, she has since committed to one person: her wife, Meyer.

The pair met while on a movie set in 2013. During her November 2019 appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Stewart said that “all bets were off” from the day they were introduced.

Though they didn’t start dating immediately, the pair reconnected years later through a mutual friend and have been together since.

“I met her years ago on a movie and I hadn’t seen her in six years, and then she rocked up at a friend’s birthday party, and I was like, ‘Where have you been, and how have I not known you?’ She’s been living in L.A. alongside my life somehow but not ever converging,” Stewart said.

The actress and screenwriter got engaged in November 2021 and tied the knot in April 2025.

As for their future as newlyweds, Stewart previously told Rolling Stone in February 2024 that she and Meyer were planning on having kids one day.

“I don’t know what my family’s going to look like, but there’s no f—— way that I don’t start acquiring kids,” she said. “And also, ideally at some point soon I go, ‘I want to have a kid.’ I really want that to happen.”

Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse

Much like his character Edward, Pattinson has found a happily ever after with his fiancée.

The Mickey 17 actor and the “Moves” singer first sparked relationship rumors in July 2018 after being spotted together multiple times. Though the pair have kept their romance low-key, Waterhouse gave more details of their relationship while speaking to British Vogue in July 2024, explaining that they met at a Hollywood game night in 2018.

“It was very, very intense,” she said. “There were lots of ‘big’ characters [there], real heavy-hitters. … Al Pacino was there. Javier [Bardem] and Penélope [Cruz] were there … and, you know, everyone was really acting.”

She went on to say that they spent the event giggling with each other, to the point where a director “separated” them because they were laughing too much.

After four years together, the couple made their red carpet debut at the Dior Men show in Egypt in December 2022. One year later, confirmed that the pair had quietly gotten engaged.

In March 2024, they became first-time parents when they welcomed a daughter.

Team Jacob got a new member when Taylor married his wife Tay.

The Twilight alum confirmed their relationship with an Instagram hard launch in October 2018. During a January 2022 conversation with PEOPLE, Taylor revealed that the pair met after his sister Makena introduced them.

“She called me and said, ‘Dude, I found your future wife. You need to meet this girl.’ And the rest is history,” he said.

As it turns out, Tay knew who he was for years, as she was a fan of the Twilight saga — but was actually Team Edward instead of Team Jacob.

In June 2022, Tay posted a video participating in the “Show your childhood crush and then the person you ended up with” trend, captioned, “i think it’s time to come clean.”

In the video, she first shared images of Pattinson as Edward before cutting to a photo of Taylor as his rival Jacob. “Bout time I won something,” Taylor commented.

The couple, who co-host a podcast called The Squeeze, got married on Nov. 11, 2022.

Ashley Greene and Paul Khoury

Ashley Greene, who played Edward’s sister Alice Cullen, has been with her husband Paul Khoury for over a decade.

The pair met through mutual friends in 2009 and he popped the question in December 2016 while on a hike in New Zealand.

Greene shared a video from the special proposal on Instagram, writing, “This is the most beautiful moment I could have ever hoped for.”

“You’ve successfully made me the happiest, luckiest woman alive,” she added. “I can’t wait to show you my unfaltering immeasurable love for the rest of our lives.”

On July 6, 2018, Greene and Khoury got married. Four years later, the actress and the entrepreneur welcomed their first child — daughter Kingsley Rainn — on Sept. 16, 2022.

Jackson Rathbone might’ve found love on-screen while portraying Alice’s husband Jasper Hale, but in real life, he is married to his wife, Sheila Hafsadi.

Following their October 2013 wedding, Rathbone told that he felt an almost immediate connection when he met Hafsadi in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., two years earlier.

“It was one of those things,” he said. “I always said I believed in love at first sight, but I never really had that feeling before.”

In October 2023, Rathbone commemorated a decade of marriage with a sweet Instagram post, writing, “10 years married and still excited for what’s to come! Thankful for every second with you ❤️.”

Rathbone and Hafsadi have welcomed three kids together: sons Monroe Jackson and Felix Valleau, and daughter Presley Bowie.

Nikki Reed’s love story is the ultimate supernatural crossover! Reed, who played Rosalie in Twilight, is married to Ian Somerhalder, who starred as vampire Damon Salvatore in The CW’s The Vampire Diaries.

The couple first sparked dating rumors in July 2014 and got engaged the following January. A few months later, the pair tied the knot in Malibu, Calif., on April 26, 2015.

Reed and Somerhalder welcomed their first child together, daughter Bodhi Soleil, in July 2017. Six years later, their son was born. After having Bodhi, the actors relocated their family to a farm “very far outside [Los Angeles],” as Reed told PEOPLE in May 2022.

Elisabeth Reaser, who portrays Esme Cullen, quietly married composer Bruce Gilbert in August 2023.

Reaser and Gilbert’s romance began in 2017, when she was hosting a dog playdate in her backyard and a friend called him over to join.

“She asked if we knew each other and the answer was yes, only because we met briefly eight years prior at another friend’s party,” the Twilight alum told Vogue in April 2024.

Fast forward to the summer of 2022, Gilbert proposed to Reaser in Italy — where they would say “I do” just a year later.

Reaser shared with Vogue that while they initially had a long list of people to invite to their wedding, they quickly realized “it didn’t feel right” and decided to elope.

The pair had a few friends there as witnesses, including Sarah Paulson and her partner Holland Taylor, who officiated the Italian wedding.
