Penn, who is the daughter of actress Robin Wright and Academy Award-winning actor Sean Penn, was reportedly spotted on a date with Pattinson at L.A.'s Viper Room on Sept. 7 fueling speculation that they are a couple. While the "Maps To The Stars" actor is not expected to publicly confirm his new-found romance, sources claim he is very happy.
"He's giving it a go with her. They've been together a few months and they're very comfortable. He's so happy," a source told Us magazine.
"She's mature. With Rob she see's the man, not the celebrity," the source explained. "He likes hanging out with people who don't care that he's Rob Pattinson."
For months Pattinson reportedly struggled after ending his relationship with Stewart, however he appears to have finally moves on from the "Camp X Ray" star. Penn is believed to have been a strong source of support during the actor's heartbreaking split from Stewart.
"They've been dating a month or two," a source close to Pattinson told People magazine. "He's crazy about her."
Pattinson uncharacteristically touched on his love life in a recent interview. The British actor opened up about his desire to spoil his significant other whenever he is romantically involved with someone.
"I'm quite sensitive, and I do like a bit of grand gesturing, but that's just my ego. I like to give people presents and I think of myself as the best gift giver, but only because I get stuff for myself and then make it work for the other person," Pattinson joked to Australia's Sunday Style magazine.
In 2012 Stewart admittedly cheated on Pattinson with her "Snow White and the Huntsman" director, Rupert Sanders. Pattinson was reportedly left devastated however they continued dating, and fans questioned why the breach of trust did not push the actor to immediately end the relationship.
"There's not very much that really bothers me. I don't ever feel the need to forgive or expect people to be. I judge people on their actions," Pattinson said alluding to his decision not to break up with Stewart after her affair.
"I don't really care if it's wrong or right, I give them the benefit of the doubt. If they do something I can't be bothered to deal with, I just cut them out," he explained.
