Riley Keough Denies Robert Pattinson Romance, Kristen Stewart 'Devastated?' (PHOTO)
Actress Riley Keough has denied reports claiming she and Robert Pattinson are dating following claims suggesting his ex-girlfriend, Kristen Stewart, is "devastated."
On Tuesday various reports claimed that the 24-year-old model, who is the granddaughter of famed rock and roll legend Elvis Presley, was in a relationship with Pattinson, 27. The British actor was also reportedly photographed spending time with Keough just weeks after his split from Stewart, 23.
"They're inseparable. Rob loves the fact that Riley is Elvis's granddaughter - that's true Rock'n'Roll royalty in his eyes," a source told Daily Mail U.K., adding that their romance is "short-term" instead of "long-term love."

A rep for Keough confirmed Wednesday that she was not recently photographed with Pattinson and dating reports are said to be false.
"Riley isn't dating Rob," a rep for the 24-year-old actress told Just Jared. "And I can confirm that Riley was not photographed at all this weekend."
Stewart, who first met Pattinson on the 2008 set of "Twilight," was reportedly devastated after hearing rumors about Keough and the actor. The "Snow White And The Huntsman" actress was reportedly devastated over dating rumors particularly because she and Keough are said to be friends.
"Kristen feels that she acted as mentor to Riley on her first film The Runaways, introduced her to Rob and encouraged her to make a career of acting. Rob has been made aware through friends that she is devastated," the source revealed.
"Kristen is emotionally volatile at best of times and flew off the handle when she found out about Rob's liaison with Riley. She's told Rob via friends she feels violated," the source added.
Pattinson and Stewart ended their relationship shortly after the actor celebrated his May 13 birthday. Their relationship was reportedly strained ever since the actress admitted to a cheating scandal in 2012.
