She may have outraged thousands of Twilight fans by cheating on Robert Pattinson, but Kristen Stewart has at least one supporter.
Italian filmmaker Giovanni Agnelli has taken to Twitter to publicly defend the actress whom he says is like his “little sister.”
And he says that the 22-year-old actress never had an affair with married director Rupert Sanders while they were filming Snow White and the Huntsman.
Agnelli tweeted on Monday. “There was NO on set affair. Stop printing LIES.”

Woe-betide anyone who criticizes the Twilight star. Agnelli – who produced Stewart's 2010 film Welcome to the Rileys – wrote: “Before tweeting me your hatred, know that she’s like my little sister.
“I love her and will always defend her. Don’t like it? Too f***ing bad.”
As Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, Stewart made a public apology to Pattinson after photos were published of her canoodling with Sanders, a married father-of-two.
But Agnelli urged fans to “remember you sic humanity and heart.”
Of Pattinson and Stewart he said: “They need to get through this first. Give them both love and time to heal.”
In a profanity-laden series of tweets no one was immune from his wrath. He slammed the media saying: “Dear tabloid media: shut the f*** up.”
To Stewart’s critics he wrote: “If you’ve ever used the word Trampire, you’re a mindless pathetic piece of sh**.”
