帕丁森竟是吸血男爵的远亲!

"Tracing Pattinson's family back to Vlad was difficult research, but the pieces that unraveled created the perfect accompaniment to 'The Twilight Saga'," said Anastasia Tyler.

　　研究者Anastasia Tyler称：“将帕丁森的家族追溯至弗拉德是一件非常困难的事情，但研究中发现的零星证据为《暮光之城》系列影片增添了完美的佐料。”

　　Pattinson plays love-sick vampire Edward Cullen in the smash hit film franchise based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer. The first two movies earned a combined $1.1 billion at world-wide box offices. The third film "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" opens on June 30.

　　帕丁森所拍吸血鬼系列影片《暮光之城》为作家Stephenie Meyer的同名小说改编。前两部影片《暮光之城》与《暮光之城2：新月》在全球共收获了11亿美元的票房。第三部《暮光之城3：月食》将于6月30日正式上映。

　　Family history experts said Pattinson and Vlad -- the Transylvania-born despot also known as Vlad the Impaler -- are likely related through today's British royal family.

　　家族史学专家称，帕丁森与弗拉德间的亲戚关系可能是通过当今英国王室建立起来的。

　　Pattinson, 24, is a distant cousin of Prince William and Prince Harry on their father's side, probably through the Pickering family who lived in northern England in the early 1500s.

　　24岁的帕丁森是英国威廉王子与哈里王子的远方堂兄弟，可能是通过16世纪初期居住于英格兰北部的Pickering家族建立联系。
