Emma Watson And Tom Felton Break Up

We are something, if that makes any sense, Felton said,  as far as we've been very close for a long time. And I adore her, I think she's fantastic. Hopefully, she returns the compliment. But as far as the romantic side of it,  I think that's a Slytherin-Gryffindor thing rather than a Tom and Emma thing.

He totally knows, she told the magazine. We talked about it—we still laugh about it. We are really good friends now, and that's cool.

Months later,  Felton told E! News in response to her comments, It was very flattering for a 12-year-old boy, but it's nice that we've become friends since then and we can kind of look back and have a laugh at it.

, Felton praised Watson. I absolutely think the world of her, he said. I think being part of what we've all been a part of, but for her to be kind of the only girl—certainly the youngest one on set—to grow up with what she had to grow up with was incredibly exciting. Listen, you're going to get me teary now! No, but I think she's a fantastic influence on the world.

At the time, We got on really well. That's why we're still together. London's such a melting pot that you can always find lovely people. It's nice being with someone who respects the arts so we talk about everything together.

However, the pair called it quits in 2015 after several years together and Bonnie appeared single...until she posted a Christmas message on Instagram with boyfriend Andrew Lococo. They wed in 2022.

It still hasn't sunk in just yet that we have our very own little boy, the actor wrote in an Instagram post. I can't wait to make the most amazing memories with Shannon and Cooper as we begin our little family. I'm so amazed by Shannon and she is now my Hero. I'm so proud of her for everything she has gone through. I can't wait to have you both home. It's so hard having to leave you both. I will love you both forever until my last breathe. Many fans have shipped the duo ever since they learned of Watson's crush on Felton in the early days of their film franchise, in which she played Hermione Granger and he portrayed Draco Malfoy.

Like Tom, I always struggle to explain to people the nature of our connection and relationship, she wrote. For more than twenty years now we've loved each other in a special way, and I've lost count of the times that people have said to me, 'You must have drunkenly made out, just once!' 'You must have kissed!' 'There must be something!'

The answer? But what we have is far deeper than that, Watson continued. It's one of the purest loves I can think of. We're soulmates, and we've always had each other's backs. I know we always will.

Sometimes it feels hard to live in a world where people are so quick to judge, to doubt, to question intentions. Tom doesn't do that, Watson continued. I know that, even if I've made a mistake, he'll understand that my intention was good. I know that he'll always

Me. Even when he doesn't have the whole picture, he'll never doubt that I'm coming from a good place and will have done my very best. That's

That said, the two didn't have a magical rapport right away. In fact, Watson admitted in the book that their relationship didn't start well. However, they were able to grow a friendship, which Felton reflects on later in the book.
