London-born actor, model, musician and producer Robert Pattinson, 28, brought new girlfriend FKA Twigs, 26, home last Christmas to meet his family, who reportedly liked her way more than they did his ex Kristen Stewart. "Rob's family absolutely adores FKA twigs. His sisters have never seen him happier. Both Lizzy and Victoria totally approve of FKA twigs because they know how dedicated and committed she is to their brother," wrote Hollywood Life. "She's very engaging with them and Rob's parents, whereas Kristen was more reserved and closed off. They feel like FKA Twigs has pure intentions and that her affection for Rob comes from the heart," the site adds.

In fact, FKA Twigs whose real name is Tahliah Debrett Barnett, an English singer-songwriter, producer and dancer, in an interview with the Guardian, admitted to how much Pattinson means to her. She said: "I look uncomfortable because I am uncomfortable [with having to deal with the paparazzi and the unwanted scrutiny from some of Pattinson's die-hard fans]. But then it's, like, is this person in my life worth that? And he is, without question. Do you know what I mean? In comparison to how happy I am. And how I feel with him. It's 100% worth it. Does that make sense?" In other words, she really loves him she's willing to sacrifice much of her long cherished privacy. "It makes me feel sick, the thought of being a famous person. It's just not me. I'm the happiest when I'm in the studio, not on a beauty parade," she said.

Earlier this month, E! News reported that the couple were spotted shopping for furniture for the "new house Pattinson bought in the hills." They went to the Rose Bowl Flea Market, then they visited JF Chen's antique furniture store to browse around. The new house is reportedly a four-bedroom, three-bathroom townhouse in Brooklyn's Vinegar Hill neighborhood with stunning interiors of exposed brick, a classic fireplace, a spacious top-of-the-line kitchen, a multi-car garage, and outdoor space. FK Twigs is the first girl that Pattinson has dated in public since his split last year with long-time girlfriend and Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart.
