She’s been spending time with her friends and her girlfriend Dylan Meyer amid the coronavirus crisis.

And Kristen Stewart enjoyed a solo outing as she was seen stepping out for a drive in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The actress, 30, made sure to keep herself protected amid the global pandemic as she wore a black paisley print scarf.

Kristen put on a casual display in a dark grey T-shirt which she teamed with black-and-white leggings and white trainers that accentuated her slender legs. 

Kristen’s cropped ombre locks were pulled up into a half-back hairdo, while she kept a low profile by wearing a pair of chic shades during the outing.

On Sunday, she was seen out in LA’s perennially hip neighbourhood Silver Lake with her girlfriend Dylan as they enjoyed a lunch date, but the screenwriter wasn’t seen with her on Wednesday.

Kristen is set to portray Princess Diana of Wales in the biopic Spencer, about her final Christmas holidays with the royal family at the Sandringham Estate when she decided her marriage to Prince Charles wasn’t salvageable. 

The film, which will be directed by Jackie’s Pablo Larrain, has already been sold in most of Europe, Latin America and Asia, aside from China, following the Cannes marketing week, according to Deadline.

Although international distributors seem excited about the royal drama, social media users weren’t convinced Kristen was the right person to portray Diana. 

Speaking to the publication, Larrain called the story the antithesis of a modern fairy tale which he found ‘surprised’. 

‘Usually, the prince comes and finds the princess, invites her to become his wife and eventually she becomes queen. That is the fairy tale,’ he began.

‘When someone decides not to be the queen, and says, I’d rather go and be myself, it’s a big big decision, a fairy tale upside down,’ he added.

‘I’ve always been very surprised by that and thought it must have been very hard to do. That is the heart of the movie.’
