Robert Pattinson‘s wet body graces the cover Australian tabloid New Weekly in its latest issue.

The British actor was recently named the Sexiest Man In The World by a British magazine. Pattinson saw off competition from Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron.

The NW story — ‘Kristen’s Breaking My Heart’ — seems to confirm recent reports Rob, 23, has split from his widely-rumored girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

Rob was reportedly dumped by Kristen, 19, when the pair reunited on July 23 at the Comic-Con convention in San Diego. Stewart has apparently rekindled her romance with her longtime boyfriend, actor Michael Angarano.

“Rob is stunned,” dished an insider. “He thought he could come back to California and get Kristen to forgive him, but he was wrong.

“Rob fought hard to steal her away from Michael. And now he has to do it all over again!”

So what Does Pattinson look for in a woman? “I like people being forward,” he recently told OK! magazine. “Gosh, I don’t know. I like strong people, chiseled abs… I don’t know, I take what I can get!”

NW is on newstands Down Under right now!
