Love is in the air in the City of Light — at least for Kristen Stewart, that is. The 25-year-old actress has been spending time in Paris with her rumored girlfriend, Soko (real name: Stéphanie Sokolinski).
Though neither woman has verbally confirmed the romance, actions speak louder than words. On Tuesday, the women shared a kiss as they strolled down a city street.

The day before, the 30-year-old French singer was snapped alongside Stewart at Charles de Gaulle Airport, her arm lovingly flung around the American actress’s back and a bouquet of pink roses in her hand. Soko was absolutely beaming with happiness, and even the normally stoic Stewart couldn’t help but flash a hint of a smile herself.
Later, they held hands while walking along the Canal Saint-Martin wearing coordinating black leather jackets. Soko completed her look with a whimsical topknot and skirt, while Stewart channeled Hollywood with sunglasses and a beanie.

But this is hardly the first time she and Soko have been out together. Earlier this month, they enjoyed a dinner for two at a vegan restaurant in Los Angeles, and since then Soko has posted quite openly about her feelings for, well, for a certain special woman who remains unnamed (but you can do the math).
One week ago, Soko posted a bittersweet Instagram pic with “I Miss Her” superimposed over it. “When you go see The Libertines, and it’s her faves, and she’s not here,” she lamented with a crying emoji.

Then, on March 9, Soko posted another photo of herself staring longingly into her phone. “FaceTime romance,” she wrote. “Spending every minute of my days and nights loving her from afar.” (She also sent the telling tweet, “4 days !!!!!” — which, presumably, meant it would be four days until Kristen arrived in France.
The blatant PDA shouldn’t come as a surprise, however. Last fall, Stewart explained to Nylon, “If you feel like you really want to define yourself, and you have the ability to articulate those parameters and that in itself defines you, then do it. But I am an actress, man. I like in the f***ing ambiguity of this life, and I love it.”
Robert Pattinson’s ex went on to explain her aversion to labeling herself.
“I don’t feel like it would be true for me to be like, ‘I’m coming out!’ No, I do a job. Until I decide that I’m starting a foundation, or that I have some perspective or opinion that other people should be receiving … I don’t. I’m just a kid making movies,” she said.
She also speculated that she would soon be in good company.
“I think in three or four years there are going to be a whole lot more people who don’t think it’s necessary to figure out if you’re gay or straight,” she said. “It’s like, just do your thing.”
Right now, her thing seems to be enjoying Paris in the springtime with Soko by her side.
