According to a report from The Sun, a source has revealed to them details of Robert Pattinson dating Tahliah Barnett. "It's the real deal between Rob and Tahliah," the source said, adding that the two had been able to keep their relationship secret until recently since "they're already smitten".
The source added that the 28-year-old actor has been taking the 26-year-old singer on dates. "He has even flown her out to stay with him in New York. He also loves going to her gigs," the source told The Sun.
Prior to Robert Pattinson dating Tahliah Barnett, the "Twilight" lead actor was committed to co-star Kristen Stewart. The controversial couple split after the actress allegedly had an affair with a married director while filming "Snow White And The Huntsman".

The source added that FKA Twigs is "worried about being bogged down by constant comparisons to Kristen."
According to an earlier report from Daily Mail, the British singer was at BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge last Saturday. The 26-year-old performed "Stay With Me" by Sam Smith, and afterwards explained to TV and radio presenter Alice Levine how she could relate the said song with her life.
The singer shared: "There was one line which basically alludes to saying, 'I'm not in love with you and maybe this isn't a serious thing, but it's perfect for right now and it's what I need emotionally right now'"
"And maybe that's just something that I have related to," Robert Pattinson's rumored new love interest added.
The said comments fueled rumors of Robert Pattinson dating Tahliah Barnett, as sources have already confirmed to US Weekly the alleged "early romance" between the two.
An insider said about Robert Pattinson dating Tahliah Barnett: "It's early (on), but they're having fun".
