The British actor, 27, has reportedly been focused on moving forward since ending his four-year relationship with Stewart, 23, in May and friends like Keough, who is the granddaughter of famed rock and roll legend Elvis Presley, have reportedly been offering support. Pop star Katy Perry has also been spotted comforting Pattinson in recent weeks.
"It's been tough on Rob, and Katy wants to be there for him," a source previously told HollywoodLife.com. "She feels like she can give him a shoulder to lean on and understands first hand the pain that one feels when a relationship ends."
Pattinson and Stewart, who met on the 2008 set of "Twilight," reportedly had trust issues stemming from the actress' 2012 tryst with her married "Snow White and The Huntsman" film director, Rupert Sanders. They reportedly split just days after his May 13 birthday celebrations.
Pattinson is said to be contemplating a move to Canada to launch his music career. While sources claim Pattinson and Stewart are still on friendly terms despite their split, he is said to be in need of a temporary break from the drama surrounding his love life.
''Rob is renting a house in Bloor West Village in Toronto for July and August," a source told the Daily Star.
''Rob needs time away from showbiz drama and loves having his family around him. They plan to spend their evenings in the garden drinking, listening to music and writing songs," the source continued.
Pattinson has reportedly always been passionate about music but has remained focused on acting due to the great work opportunities he has received -- particularly his roles in "Harry Potter" and "Twilight." His alleged split from Stewart has reportedly enabled him to rediscover his passion.
''Rob's always had half a mind on his music, but when his film career and relationship with Kristen both took off at the same time, something else had to give," a source told HollywoodLife.com. ''He's really enjoyed picking up his guitar again properly and it has given him something to focus on during the break-up.''
