During her interview, Emma Watson also shared that her co-stars and friends, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, do not like using WhatsApp and prefer to stay away from their phones in general. She shared they often try to stay away from electronics.
“They both hate WhatsApp and their phones in general. Actually, as a three, we really try and stay off electronics, so that doesn’t help for a massive amount of back and forth.”
Watson also shared that they do not have a group chat. However, they still make sure to catch up when they get the opportunity. “We aren’t on a group chat, but we speak individually,” she said. The Harry Potter star shared that she is thankful for being a part of the franchise as she learned many things during that period.
