The apologies keep on rolling after the public learned about Kristen Stewart's affair with "Snow White And The Huntsman" Director, Rupert Sanders, 41.

"I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family," Sanders told People magazine. "My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together."

Sanders statement was made shortly after Stewart issued a heart-wrenching apology to boyfriend Robert Pattinson.

I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry," Stewart said in a statement Wednesday.

"She instantly had all the qualities I felt a modern Snow White should have. She's very spirited, she's very rebellious, she's obviously very beautiful. She just had all these things that I felt....for a new audience, that she was a great role model. She has this untameable quality about her, this great natural spirit, strength." Sanders said about casting Stewart for "Snow White And The Huntsman."

Sounds like he was smitten with Stewart from the start.
