Everybody’s favorite moody vampire is making headlines again for coming down with COVID. Is he smoking weed to help him heal?

Robert Pattinson, who many know as Edward Cullen in “Twilight”, is making a switch from pale vampire to dark knight in the latest Batman sequel. He’s also making a name for himself in another way: as the latest celebrity to be diagnosed with COVID-19. According to CNN, the actor tested positive for coronavirus, temporarily halting the production on “The Batman,” one of the most anticipated movies of 2021.

We all know Pattinson is considered a total smoke show to many fans, but does he smoke weed?

Pattinson is a prolific actor, one who’s made a name for himself while working in both independent and critically acclaimed films. After his involvement with the Harry Potter franchise and the Twilight movies, he’s steered clear of blockbuster films. Lately he’s been linked with bigger budget films, like “Tenet,” which is enjoying a limited release in theaters (if you can’t get to a theater, you can stream the score!), and, of course, “The Batman,” which is expected to be a huge hit.

Still, Pattinson appears to be private when it comes to his personal life, never discussing his relationships or habits, only making appearances for press junkets. There’s not a lot out there when it comes to his marijuana use (or lack thereof). 

In 2013, Pattinson was spotted at Coachella with his then girlfriend Kristen Stewart. According to a tweet, they were smoking weed together. While it could be a lie, the tweet gained some traction and everyone smokes weed at Coachella, so it would make sense.

While Pattinson and Stewart broke up a few years ago, Stewart has always been open about her marijuana use. In 2012, paparazzi took a photo of her smoking weed on her front porch. “The next day, it was like I was a delinquent, slimy idiot, whereas I’m kind of a weirdo, creative Valley Girl who smokes pot,” she said. “Big deal.” The more the years have passed, the more open and laid back she’s been about her drug use.

But as far as whether or not Pattinson smokes marijuana regularly, we can only assume that he has smoked weed occasionally. So he may not be a pothead, but he’s definitely smoked weed.
