Kristen Stewart may have acted out of fear when she decided to sabotage her relationship with Rob Pattinson by cheating on him with Rupert Sanders. Relationship expert and bestselling author Rebecca Grado tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively, “After watching her parent’s marriage decay over the years,  Kristen’s views on relationships would have definitely been affected.”

“If Kristen’s parents, Jules and John, became estranged in 2010, we can then assume that there may have been instability in their relationship for quite some time,” Rebecca says.”  This instability would have made Kristen feel insecure and question her own relationship. It would have also made her question commitment and if it’s even possible to have an everlasting relationship.”

Rebecca says, “Kristen had to witness a 27-year-old relationship fall apart, this would make her ask, ‘Do relationships last?’, ‘Will my own relationship last?’, ‘What if Rob is unfaithful?’ She is going to feel out of control and one way to feel in control is to sabotage your own relationship.”

“This is something people do all of the time. They do it subconsciously. Instead of waiting to see what would happen, Kristen choose to sabotage her relationship with Rob. She probably thought it was going to end anyway and didn’t want to wait in agony.”

Do YOU think Kristen cheated because of her parents’ marital woes, HollywoodLifers?

Kristen Stewart‘s mother Jules Stewart shocked Twilight fans by filing for divorce from her husband of 27 years, John Stewart, on August 17 in L.A. County Superior Court. But if this unhappy couple had the chance to do things the way they wanted, it would have been much earlier!

HollywoodLife.com spoke to sources EXCLUSIVELY that mentioned that Jules and John wanted to wait to file for divorce so that “it wouldn’t be the topic of discussion during the press tour and end up taking away from the film and all the hoopla surrounding it.”

What actually started the talk to file was that “Kristen’s affair really has pushed things into overdrive, making her parents want to end a relationship the proper way.”

That may seem like a slam towards Kristen and how she ruined her own relationship with Robert Pattinson by cheating on him, but her parents are, “totally on Kristen’s boat and want to do everything to protect her well-being.” It’s an emotional time in the Stewart household.

So HollywoodLifers, are you sad that Kristen Stewart’s parents are getting divorced? Sound off below!

Kristen Stewart‘s mother, Jules Stewart, has filed for divorce from husband of 27 years John Stewart, citing irreconcilable differences. A source tells us that this news comes as no surprise.

A source close to John tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively that they are “not surprised with the news as [the two] were never seen together.” Our source tells us they feel bad for John because they know “he is a really nice and down to earth guy.”

With Jules’ divorce documents, filed in L.A. County Superior Court on Aug. 17, also revealing that the couple has been separated since June 15, 2010, our source agrees that this should have been expected. “This has been a long time coming, and [John] is dealing with it smoothly and he wants to make sure that Kristen isn’t affected by it. That is what is important to him.”

Are you surprised by news of the split, HollywoodLifers?

Kristen Stewart‘s mother Jules Stewart has filed for divorce from her husband of 27 years, John Stewart.

Jules filed the petition on August 17 in L.A. County Superior Court, TMZ reports. The papers filed cite irreconcilable differences and reveal that the couple has been separated since June 15, 2010.

Kristen, 22, will surely be devastated by the news. We hope that Robert Pattinson can find it in his heart to reach out to her for comfort — even though she broke his heart!

Jules recently talked to Total Film about working with Kristen on the upcoming movie K-11.

“To have your daughter being so in the public eye and so popular, a lot of people accuse me of using her to get what I am. That’s a negative thing and not true. She became this big movie star. She became too big for me.”

John spoke to HollywoodLife.com in November, telling us how proud he was that his daughter was getting her handprint at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

“It’s unbelievable, man. It’s awesome, I am very proud!”

Are YOU shocked about this split, HollywoodLifers?

Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson with her director Rupert Sanders. And since the news broke on July 24, Kristen has not seen her love of three years, Rob. Thus, her parents, John Stewart and Jules Mann-Stewart, have offered a should to cry on!

A source close to Kristen’s parents tell HollywoodLife.com exclusively, “they are very sad about the whole situation and what their daughter is dealing with — both with her own emotions and the media surrounding it. Her parents have not talked to Rob since this has happened, but they have been there for Kristen in anything she needs, shoulder to cry on and all that, but also including not talking about it and having Kristen address the situation to them when she feels like she wants too. Plus, Kristen has been offered to stay at the family houses, but apparently she has refrained from taking the offer because Kristen doesn’t want her parents and the neighborhood bugged with paparazzi.”

Kristen is putting other people — her parents — before herself! We knew she was a considerate person!

We really feel for Kristen and hope she’s doing okay during this difficult time!

How do YOU feel, HollywoodLifers?

Kristen Stewart has really created a mess for herself.  Not only is Robert Pattinson upset with her for cheating on him with 41-year-old married man, Rupert Sanders, but her parents, John Stewart and Jules Mann-Stewart, are also reportedly devastated by the news.

While the 22-year-old is at home with her parents, Us Weekly reports they’re having a hard time sympathizing with her.

“[Her parents] feel Kristen has really embarrassed herself and don’t blame Rob for not calling her back,” a source tells the mag. “This is not the Kristen they know.”

Hmm! Maybe Kristen is going through a quarter life crisis?

“It’s unbelievable man,” John gushed to HollywoodLife.com exclusively. “It’s awesome, I am very proud!”

It wasn’t a regular monday night at the eatery when I went but rather Valentine’s day. It was extremely busy but not in the least bit overcrowded. I was greeted with a beautiful long-stemmed rose and was promptly sat at my table. They were amazing enough to sit two of us at a table for four unlike other NYC restaurants who would cram a couple into a tiny table to save room. The service was impeccable — from the enthusiastic waiter offering up his best advice on dishes to the bus boys who always seemed to know once I was finished with my last bite. As for the food: The half-shell Oysters were delicious and the crab meat appetizers were to die for. The cocktail sauce had a spicy kick to it which only made it better. The table next to us had Benjamin’s signature canadian bacon that looked great and must have been — because they couldn’t stop raving to us about it!

The entrees were next and let me tell you, even if you are a pescatarian or a vegetarian there is something delicious on the menu for you. The Porter House Steak for one was flawless not to mention huge and the lobster tails with butter melted in your mouth. The cottage fries and broccoli were great but we say — skip the creamed spinach.

We finished off with a little champagne toast – courtesy of their Valentine’s Day special — and a slice of cheesecake big enough for two that comes with chocolate covered strawberries and whip cream. It was a fantastic end to an unforgettably delicious dinner.
