Liberty Ross -- the wife of director Rupert Sanders who cheated on her with Kristen Stewart -- has already seen a divorce lawyer ... TMZ has learned ... but her goal is reconciliation.

We do not know which lawyer she hired, but the picture (above) was taken Tuesday in the lobby of a Century City office building in which a number of divorce lawyers practice -- including disso queen Laura Wasser. By the way ... is Liberty hot or what?

Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ ... although Liberty has lawyered up, her end game is NOT divorce. In fact, Liberty and Rupert have already been to a marriage and family therapist. Our sources say, when they were photographed together on Tuesday in Beverly Hills (above), they were coming out of an office building where they met with the psychologist.

Although Liberty is not wearing her wedding ring, we're told her goal is figuring out why Rupert cheated and getting some sort of assurance he views what he did as a terrible mistake that he won't repeat.

Rupert Sanders -- the philandering director who cheated on his wife with Kristen Stewart -- finally came face-to-face with the woman he betrayed today ... right near a Beverly Hills deli.

Cameras snapped away after Liberty Ross and Rupert reunited outside Judi's Deli. We're told the two met at an office building in the vicinity. 

As we previously reported, Rupert is still wearing his wedding ring ... and is hopeful he can work things out with the mother of his children.

Liberty, on the other hand, had NO RING on her finger when she was spotted out in L.A. yesterday.

However, she was sportin' a pretty big smile while hanging out with another man (pictured below).

Rebound time?

While her cheating husband has been seen still wearing his wedding ring after being caught having an affair with his "Snow White and the Huntsman" actress Kristen Stewart, director Rupert Sanders' wife Liberty Ross surfaced without her wedding ring in L.A. on Monday.

While neither Liberty nor Rupert have officially filed for divorce, the wronged mother of two -- who looked chic in a navy suit -- appears to be sending a loud and clear message about the status of their relationship.

Kristen Stewart's co-philanderer Rupert Sanders is still flashing his wedding ring around town ... which set of a debate: Who's more at fault for their affair -- K-Stew or Rupie Two-Timer?

Rupert Sanders -- the philandering director who cheated on his wife with Kristen Stewart -- wants the world to know he's still married (at least for now) ... 'cause he's proudly sporting his wedding ring.

Sanders finally emerged in L.A. just a few hours ago -- it's the first time we've seen him in public since those crazy scandalous photos emerged showing the "Snow White and the Huntsman" director -- and father of 2 -- making out with his lead actress ... who was also in a committed relationship with Robert Pattinson at the time.

Sanders released a statement a few days ago ... begging his wife to not dump his adulterous ass. It's unclear if she's made a decision yet.

Kristen Stewart and her team may have made the biggest bone head move since prosecutor Christopher Darden let OJ Simpson try on that glove. Had she just shut up, the whole thing would have gone away. But now everyone just can’t get enough, so we gotta ask ...

Robert Pattinson isn't wasting any time -- a UHaul was spotted outside the Los Feliz home he shares (shared?) with Kristen Stewart ... following reports he's moved out of the love nest he lives (lived?) in with his (ex?) girlfriend.

Kristen's baffling public apology after her alleged affair with married director Rupert Sanders set this chain of events in motion.

Recent reports say Rob was weeks away from proposing to his "Twilight" co-star ... but instead, PEOPLE mag describes Rob as "heartbroken and angry."

11:04 AM PT -- Philandering director Rupert Sanders has also released a statement ... saying, "I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family."

Wife-betrayer Sanders adds, "My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together."



Kristen Stewart just issued a shockingly desperate plea for forgiveness ... after cheating on Rob Pattinson with the 41-year-old married director of "Snow White and the Huntsman."

Kristen publicly confessed to the affair moments ago, saying, "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected."

She added, "This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

News broke yesterday about the tryst between Kristen and director Rupert Sanders after photographs surfaced of the two getting extremely close recently.

Sanders has two children with his wife. So far, no word from Rob.
