Stewart and I are technically married, says Robert Pattinson

Actor Robert Pattinson says he`s "technically" married to his "Twilight" co-star and girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

The actors tie the knot as young lovers Bella Swan and Edward Cullen in The `Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part I`.

"The wedding scene`s funny because we used a real priest. So technically we are already married because he did all the things you would do in a normal ceremony. So we don`t have a civil union in law, but I guess in the church we are actually married," dailystar.co.uk quoted him as saying. 

Stewart had confirmed long running rumours of romance between her and Pattinson during a recent interview.
