A frustrated Robert Pattinson turned the tables on a TV reporter on Thursday morning when she quizzed him about his private life and his relationship with Kristen Stewart.

The couple's romance was thrown into jeopardy over the summer after Stewart confessed to an "indiscretion" with her married Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders.

The 22 year old beauty subsequently apologised, but the incident led to a brief break-up for the Twilight lovers.

And now they appear to be back together, media outlets, reporters and TV presenters all want to be the first to get the news confirmed.

And when morning show Today anchor Savannah Guthrie asked Pattinson if he had indeed rekindled his romance with Stewart, the hunk responded, "I want to ask, 'cause we get asked it all the time, everyone always asks, like for four years. Who is actually asking? Is it in your contract?"

Pattinson's TV appearance coincidentally aired just one day after Stewart dodged the same question on the same program during her chat on Wednesday.

She responded by saying, "I'm just gonna let people watch whatever little movie they would like to think our lives are. Keep 'em guessing I always say."
