After a few weeks of heartache on both sides, it has emerged that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will meet up after having spoken on the phone for over an hour.

Although Robert Pattinson, 26, has bounced back from the deceit remarkably well and has smartened up his act in the wake of the scandal, he may forgive the woman who broke his heart.

According to a close friend, Robert Pattinson feels sorry for Kristen Stewart and is ready to speak to her face to face about everything that has happened.

The friend told Look magazine: “She begged to meet face to face so they could talk. It was obvious Kristen was getting through to Rob and he has agreed to see her.

“In fact, he admitted that it must be worse for her because she’s not just dealing with heartbreak, but being portrayed as a villain, while he gets all the sympathy.”

After R-Patz saw T-shirts on sale that read “Kristen Stewart is a Trampire”, he decided that the time was right to speak with her.

The couple spoke for about an hour and during the call an emotional Kristen Stewart begged Robert Pattinson to take her back and pleaded with him trust her again.

The close friend told the magazine: “For the first couple of weeks he was wallowing in his own grief, but being forced to face people during this promo, and seeing how angry everyone is with Kristen, made him feel sad for her.”

Even if R-Patz does take her back, he has some ground rules that he would like her to follow such as spending time together between film projects like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie do.

He would also expect her to spend more time in his hometown of London instead of Los Angeles.

The exact time of the scheduled meeting has not been decided yet but Robert Pattinson doesn’t want to meet anywhere too public.

The pair have discussed using Resse Witherspoon’s Ojai ranch, where he hid from paparazzi when the affair was first revealed.

One big sign that R-Patz may have forgiven Kristen Stewart is the fact that he has been seen wearing her sunglasses.

A source told heat magazine: “Rob and Kristen always wore each other’s clothes when they lived together, and the fact that they’ve not stopped doing that could be a signal that it’s not over between them.”

Famous photographer Douglas Kirkland recounts an evening he spent with Marylin Monroe just one year before she died in a revealing new photographic memoir.

Compiling Douglas Kirkland’s iconic photographs in their entirety for the first time, With Marilyn: An Evening/1961, reveals the intimate moments the then 27-year-old photographer shared with the sexiest woman in the history of Hollywood.

“Sex ran high on the evening we shot,” Douglas Kirkland recalled.

“I was 27, but mentally like a 16-year-old, alone with Marilyn Monroe, and only a white silk sheet draped across her nude body. Can you imagine the charge I felt as a young man?”

Shooting her for Look magazine’s 25th anniversary issue in 1961, the photographer, who has also captured iconic images of Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor and Brigitte Bardot, met with Marilyn Monroe on three separate occasions.

Douglas Kirkland’s encounters with the superstar enabled him to capture a series of timeless portraits that have helped to define how we remember her today.

And just how she came to be dressed in only a white silk sheet, Douglas Kirkland, originally from Fort Erie, Canada, says he owes to the icon herself.

“It started with me visiting her with my colleagues [from Look]. I wanted something really hot but in my small town way I didn’t feel comfortable articulating that,” he said.

“I was embarrassed to say what I really had in mind, she invented the idea. She said, <<I know what we should do! We should have a bed, and get a white silk sheet, it must be silk. I’ll be there and I’ll wear nothing, just that silk sheet>>.”

When they started shooting the next day, Douglas Kirkland said it began slowly, heating up gradually.

“It got really hot. It’s all real. They’re not poses. It’s all Marilyn herself, I didn’t say turn this way turn that, I just encouraged her as she got excited.”

He believes that the reason she felt an uninhibited comfort with him, was because of his modest background, and his young age.

“I had an innocence about me, my eyes were wide open. I was very young for my age, just because of where I grew up in Canada, and suddenly I was with this superstar of all superstars, and she responded to me, and I, of course, responded to her.”

He admitted he was surprised by the closeness she felt towards him.

“I was the new kid on the block,” he said.

“But she was warm and caring and at one point at the end of our photo session I lay down beside her, she was on the bed, and we just shared stories about our lives. She had been in foster homes and all places, but she found her way through it.”

“She got knocked around a lot on her move to the top. But at the base of Marilyn… she was a very sweet, wonderful woman,” he said, before adding, “…wonderful, girl”.

The pair began shooting at 9:30 a.m. in the small apartment, the superstar was an hour and a half late, but an hour in their session, just before lunch time, the icon ordered everyone to leave the room.

“I wanna be alone with this boy, I find it usually works better this way…” Douglas Kirkland recalls her whispering.

“And before I knew, I heard the door close.”

Douglas Kirkland, who is and was married at the time to his wife Francoise, says that even though “nothing happened” between the pair during their 16 hours of shooting, he admits: “This is Marilyn seducing, period.”

“It didn’t happen, but it could have happened. The magnitude of the images are a result, I put all of it into the pictures,” he explained.

“Had I probably taken the opportunity to make love with her, the pictures wouldn’t have had the same power.

“What we did, was put the power of that love I was feeling, and what she was projecting, we put that into the images, and those are the images you see.”
