Donald Trump may be president now, but there was a time not long ago when he was preoccupied with Kristen Stewart's love life -- a period Stewart has found difficult to forget.
In late 2012, Trump tweeted repeatedly about Stewart's relationship with her "Twilight" co-star, Robert Pattinson, suggesting Pattinson ditch her following revelations that she'd cheated on him with "Snow White and the Huntsman" director Rupert Sanders.
Variety caught up with Stewart at the Sundance Film Festival, where she was unveiling her directorial debut, "Come Swim," while Trump was being inaugurated.
"He was mad at me a couple years ago -- really obsessed with me a couple years ago, which is f***ing crazy," Stewart said. "I can't even understand it. I literally cannot even understand it. It's such a far-out concept that I'm like, I don't want to believe that actually is happening. It's insane."
Stewart also admitted that mentioning the incident at all would likely draw Trump's ire again. "He's probably going to tweet about this," she said.
