Robert Pattinson Reveals His Obsession with His Baby Daughter’s Scent
Robert Pattinson, the beloved star of the Twilight saga, has recently shared a surprisingly tender and intimate revelation about his first child, born in March 2024. The 38-year-old actor spoke about his newfound love for a scent—one that is uniquely special to him now that he’s a father. In a candid interview with Vogue in January 2025, Pattinson opened up about how becoming a dad completely changed his perception of newborns’ smells.
The Addictive Scent of Newborns
Before welcoming his daughter, Robert admits he didn’t fully understand the obsession many parents have with the scent of babies. “I remember people used to ask, ‘Don’t you love the smell of newborns?’” he recalls. “But I always thought it was just the baby powder they were smelling. It wasn’t until I had my own child that I realized how incredible and addictive their scent is. It’s something so unique, and now I can recognize my baby’s scent among hundreds of others,” Pattinson confessed.
The Joys of Fatherhood
The British actor has always been known for his quiet, introspective nature, but his public declarations about fatherhood have been filled with joy and pride. He welcomed his daughter with his fiancée, actress and singer Suki Waterhouse, in March of 2024. Their little girl has already become a major part of Robert’s life, and it’s clear that fatherhood has been a life-changing experience.
At a fashion event in Paris last summer, Pattinson shared his excitement about being a father: “Having a child makes me feel both older and younger at the same time. She’s so adorable. At just three months old, she already has a distinct personality.”
Suki Waterhouse’s Insights
Robert’s fiancée, Suki Waterhouse, has also spoken fondly of their new life as parents. The 33-year-old model and actress shared on Today that the couple enjoys playful moments with their daughter every day. “Around 5 PM, we all go down to the pool and play together. That’s always the best part of the day,” Suki shared with a smile, adding to the picture of a happy, carefree family life.
A Private Romance
While Robert and Suki have kept their relationship largely private, there have been glimpses into their world as a couple over the years. The two began dating in 2018, but they rarely speak about their romance. It wasn’t until early 2023 that they appeared together on the red carpet publicly, signaling their growing commitment. By December 2023, reports surfaced that Robert had proposed, and Suki was spotted wearing a diamond engagement ring.
A Look Back at Robert Pattinson’s Past Relationships
Before finding love with Suki, Robert Pattinson was famously in a high-profile relationship with Kristen Stewart, his co-star from Twilight, and later, with singer FKA Twigs. Their engagement, however, ended in a breakup, leaving fans with bittersweet memories of the couple’s once-promising future.
Suki Waterhouse, on the other hand, has had a few relationships of her own. She was romantically linked to actor Bradley Cooper and Diego Luna before finding lasting happiness with Robert.
As the couple embarks on this new chapter of their lives, it’s clear that their bond and shared joy in raising their daughter have only grown stronger. Their low-key but meaningful moments together reveal a family in love with each other, and a father more smitten than ever by his little girl’s unmistakable scent.
In this new phase of his life, Robert Pattinson seems more content and fulfilled than ever, embracing the joys of fatherhood with open arms. Fans and the public alike are eager to see how this new chapter unfolds for the Twilight heartthrob, as he navigates the balance of family life and his storied career.
