Kristen Stewart
has nothing to hide! Though the 26-year-old actress is notoriously private, she is currently in a committed relationship with girlfriend Alicia Cargile, and she doesn’t care who knows it.

As one of the stars featured in Elle magazine’s “Women in Hollywood” issue, Stewart got candid about her love life, saying, “I’m not ashamed and I’m not confused.”

The Twilight alum, who had a widely publicized romance with her former co-star Robert Pattinson, added, “Things have changed. And not just with me – we’re really allowed to encourage this new acceptance and be awesome.”

Though the actress remained tight-lipped about her romance with Cargile early on, she has since been outspoken about their relationship.

“I think also right now I’m just really in love with my girlfriend,” she told Elle UK in July. “We’ve broken up a couple of times and gotten back together, and this time I was like, ‘Finally, I can feel again.’”

“I wasn’t working, and I wasn’t happy,” she said of her 20s. “I kept trying different acting techniques, like, I’d try to act like the actresses who were getting hired. I thought maybe then I’d get a job. I spent the majority of my twenties trying to figure out who I was and where I fit in, not just in Hollywood, but also in the world. It took me a long time to sort of find my own voice.”
