Kristen will jet off to Japan, Rob will charm Australia and Taylor will mix and mingle with Brazil.
Whether or not this is due to Kristen and Rob's tortured affair is unknown, but a source told The Sun that the franchise's executives worry his many admirers won't be too nice to the philandering actress.
“Many of Rob’s fans are still angry with Kristen and it has been decided that all three should go their separate ways," the source said. "Keeping them apart will mean less chance of reprisals from fans who were devastated by the split. No decision has been made on the London premiere, which is happening a little later in November.”
