Emma Watson and Rupert Grint reached dizzying pinnacles of fame in their characters Ron and Hermione in Harry Potter. In reality, Emma and Rupert have maintained their relationship from the sets through today, and their mutual affection and admiration for each other was hugely evident in the recently released Return To Hogwarts.
As per reports in Screen Rant, Emma and Rupert also found everlasting love in each other, albeit platonic. In Return To Hogwarts, Rupert very emphatically said “I love you” to his longtime co-star, and then both clarified that they meant that as friends only. They may think of each other as brother and sister, but Rupert revealed in an interview with FHM in 2009, ahead of the fifth film’s release, that both he and Daniel had a crush on her. He said cheekily “Have Daniel or I ever hit on Emma? Well, she’s quite popular with the cast. As for who has the worst crush on her – me or Radcliffe – I’d rather not say.”
No matter how anti-electronic-device Rupert and Emma may be, they still use it, and often to adorable ends. The Ron Weasley actor recently became a father, and he doesn’t hesitate to share pictures of her with his first co-star. In the same interview, Emma gushed about the little one. “Rupert sends me pictures of [his daughter] Wednesday and I die,” she said. It looks like the two like to keep each other in the loop about life’s many milestones.
