New love? The mystery woman driving around in Robert Pattinson's pick-up truck over the weekend has now been identified as actress Riley Keough
More than just friend? Riley was previously engaged to actor Alex Pettyfer and is the granddaughter of music icon Elvis
Former co-stars: Riley, far left, is pictured with Robert's ex-Kristen Stewart along with Dakota Fanning and Joan Jett at the after party for the premiere of their film The Runaways at Sundance in Park City in 2010
She has always been close to the former couple, attending Kristen's birthday party at Mexican cantina Malo back in April.
During the weekend, the British actor was spotted driving around Los Feliz with a woman said to be Keough, with a ping-pong table in the back of his battered pick-up truck.
Rob took the actress - who looks a lot like his former flame - back to his nearby mansion - perhaps so the pair could try out the new table tennis table for themselves.
Oceans apart: Kristen looked stunning in a white Chanel boucle jacket and leather shorts as she attended the label's fashion show in Paris on Tuesday
Wearing a check shirt with sunglasses and what looks like a back to front baseball cap Rob was spotted driving his red Chevy Silverado truck through Loz Feliz on Saturday afternoon.
His passenger wore her bright red hair down and was dressed in a green T-shirt and was wearing large eye-glasses too.
Rob and Keough seemed relaxed and happy as they drove in his truck and headed to his nearby mansion.

As Rob entertained his new leading lady a rather forlorn looking Kristen flew out of Los Angeles on Sunday evening.
She was later seen at the Chanel Haute Couture show looking stunning in a white jacket and shorts. Meanwhile Pattinson joined the throng of celebrities who flocked to see Beyonce at the Staples Center on Monday night.
It was recently revealed Robert is writing songs to help get over his split from Kristen but is not planning to make them public.
Perhaps he was inspired by Riley's grandfather, the singing legend Elvis Presley who rocketed to fame in the 1950s because of his good looks, sweet voice and pelvic thrusts when he performed.

Riley, who's mother is Lisa Marie Presley, is an heir to Elvis' vast estate, which still brings in an estimate $25 million a year.
Hanging on by a thread: Kristen and Robert were still together last November after the release of Breaking Dawn
Lisa Marie was once married to Michael Jackson.
A source said: 'Rob's always had half a mind on his music, but when his film career and relationship with Kristen both took off at the same time, something else had to give.
'He's really enjoyed picking up his guitar again properly and it has given him something to focus on during the break-up. Everyone's saying that he's really talented, but he's adamant we'll only be seeing him in films for the time being.'
The pair are said to have split for a second time after Kristen got back in touch with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, who she confessed to having an affair with last year behind Robert's back.
Robert's musical efforts have previously seen him record two tracks for the original Twilight soundtrack, Never Think and Let Me Sign.
He has also previously said he originally wanted to be a musician rather than an actor.
He said: 'I love the piano. I never really had any aspirations to be an actor when I was young. I wanted to play the piano in a bar, to be the old dude with a whiskey glass.'
Big lineage: Riley's mother is Lisa Marie Presley, who was once married to Michael Jackson. The mother and daughter were seen together at the Commando launch party April 27 in Hollywood
