Hurts' Theo Hutchcraft Helps 'Protect' Robert Pattinson's Girlfriend Kristen Stewart

Hurts frontman Theo Hutchcraft helped protect Robert Pattinson's girlfriend Kristen Stewart when she was chased by zombies in London earlier this week.

Stewart, who is in the UK to film a new movie, and Hutchcraft were both among guests at a “real-life gaming experience”, which featured actors dressed as zombies.

Hutchcraft told The Sun: "She was sh*tting herself. I never met her before but I had an urge to protect her.

"I was putting my arm around her, batting off these zombies. She's a cool girl and got really into it. I just hope she appreciated my help."

Both Stewart and Pattinson are best known for their roles in the hugely popular vampire franchise, The Twilight Saga.
