June 26, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): The Twilight actor Robert Pattinson has always been in the news for various reasons. First of all, he hit the headlines for playing the vampire and then his relationship with co-star Kristen Stewart was highly discussed in the media and now it is for a very different and interesting reason.

The most loved vampire of Twilight series, Robert Pattinson is reportedly having a distant relation with ‘Vlad The Impaler’, the man behind the Dracula stories. Vlas The Impaler’s real name was ‘Vlad II Dracula’. In fact, the British Royal family is reported to have relations with Pattinson and Vlad The Impaler.

Geneologist, Anastasia, who is an expert at the Ancestry.Com disclosed the facts. If all these are true, then Prince Harry and William are cousin brothers of the Twilight actor. And, his vampire act as Edward Cullen is also justified with this fact. Probably, that is why the actor essays the vampire’s role so nicely.

Robert Pattinson is playing the vampire Edward Cullen since last two years in the Twilight series. He was also surprised hearing this blood relation with Dracula.

Pointing to Anastasia, Robert said, “This is unbelievable. Do you mean, that person is actually related to me? In have to think about this.”

Well, all these sound really funny. All of a sudden, the royal family is also associated with the Dracula. So, what does it mean? Does he have the feature of vampires and this is why he looks so convincing as a vampire in the movie? Whatever be the truth but it has again given some publicity to the Twilight star this helping in the promotion of his next movie in the line.
