Childhood crushes are often special since people often have a crush on famous actors and idols. Emma Watson was no stranger to childhood crushes when she joined the cast of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone back in 2001.
While working together, Emma Watson developed a crush on her co-star which was quite unexpected for the people. Neither Daniel Radcliffe nor Rupert Grint, Watson chose to have a crush on Tom Felton, who portrayed the role of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter franchise!
Emma Watson Had A Massive Crush On Tom Felton
Celebrities crushing on other celebrities is not an uncommon thing. Many times, actors and actresses have often confessed to liking someone in Hollywood. Emma Watson was no exception as she immediately had her heart set on Draco’s eyes.
After the filming of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 ended, the cast and crew members of the franchise said one final goodbye to each other. During the promotion of the movie, the Little Women actress revealed that during her childhood, she had a massive crush on Tom Felton. The reason that she gave for her crushing on the actor was also quite hilarious to hear.
“Between the ages of 10 and 12, I had a really terrible crush on Tom Felton. He was a few years older and he had a skateboard — and that just did it really.”
Unfortunately, Tom Felton did not reciprocate in the same way as he considered Emma Watson as his little sister. Following this statement, the actress never shared another part of her dating life with media outlets or Hollywood.
Emma Watson Is Rumored To Be Dating Ryan Walsh
After her breakup with Brandon Green, The Sun reported back in June 2023 that the Beauty and the Beast actress was seen in Venice alongside Ryan Walsh. Walsh is an American businessman with his own tech firm in Los Angeles.
Although it hasn’t been confirmed, the two were indeed photographed in Venice enjoying each other’s company. Following some controversies, Watson refused to star in every movie that she was offered and instead chose to star in select movies. The actress was last seen in a major role back in 2019 when she portrayed Meg March in Little Women. The actress is currently not attached to any other upcoming projects at the moment.
