Daniel Radcliffe rose to global stardom with his iconic titular role in the Harry Potter film series. It was not just a working environment but a major segment of his life since he spent years growing along with his character. However, this very role introduced him to many things, with one thing being the center of everyone’s hearts.
Due to this role, his charm led to stealing many hearts including that of his co-star, Julianne Hough who developed a crush on him when she was just 11 years years old.
Julianne Hough Worked as an Extra in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Julianne Hough has come a long way after making her acting debut as an extra to play a school student at Hogwarts in 2001’s Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Since then, she has made quite a career in dancing and singing to aim for the top.
During an appearance on LIVE! With Kelly in 2012, she revealed her association with the wizardry franchise. She shared that she was in the same house as the titular character, played by Daniel Radcliffe. She spilled the beans on stealing a stole just to prove that she was a part of the magical franchise.
“I was in Gryffindor,” Hough recalled. “I even stole the scarf just to make sure that I had proof that I was Gryffindor, and then they searched my bag and took it back.”
While her history with the magical franchise was quite proven, she also revealed to have had a crush on the titular actor. However, her sincere feelings never heard anything from Radcliffe.

Hough talked about having a huge crush on the then-young wizard who never gave her a reply of her sincere feelings. She opened up about writing a ‘love note’ to him and planned a sweet confession for him which went futile since she received no response.
“I was kind of in love, especially with Daniel Radcliffe. I wrote him a love note,” she stated. “It was Valentine’s Day and I got him the Valentino Beanie Baby. I never heard back.”
However, she admitted to being “really embarrassed” crushing on him.
“Sometimes I see him around. I just turn and walk away.”
When host, Kelly Ripa asked if she ever confronted Radcliffe with her feelings, she quickly said no as it would have made her quite nervous.
Though Radcliffe never answered his admirer, he has been enjoying a great romantic relationship with his long-time beau, Erin Darke with whom he shares a boy. The duo has been keeping their love life out of the public but their bond is quite strong!
