Emma Watson Twin Brother

What is it with celebrities and their hot brothers these days? Jennifer Lawrence has one, Justin Theroux has one, and it turns out, even Emma Watson is getting in on the fun! We recently came to the realization (thanks to Jezebel) that there is a person out there who looks just like the British babe, is a man, and is related to her. My goodness, what a thrilling time!

His name is Alex Watson and he's a Burberry model, naturally. Everyone knows that just like wizards and the population of Hogwarts, every good-looking young British person is automatically added to a Burberry-model roster. One day, out of the blue, Dumbledore and his assistant Romeo Beckham come pick you up and explain that you've been given the gift of trench coats. That day has come for Alex. He's about to embark on a wondrous journey, and while he appears to be (at least on some occasions) sporting the same hairstyle as Draco Malfoy, we're confident he's a much braver, gentler person beneath the styling gel.

Fame, it looked like celebrity-grade talent might actually run in the Watson family. Her brother, Alex Watson, proved to be a fantastically photogenic young man who nearly stole the spotlight from his sister when he made his modeling debut alongside her in a 2010 campaign for Burberry.

With gorgeous good looks, an adorable smile, and a famous family name, Alex seemed like a shoo-in to become just as big a star as Emma. He even told the

In 2010 that he had ambitions for an acting career of his own after university. As of this writing, the years have rolled by, and Alex has virtually disappeared from the public eye. Let's find out why we don't hear about Emma Watson's brother anymore?

The 2010 Burberry print campaign featuring Alex and Emma Watson side-by-side was supposed to be Alex's first big break in what we assumed would be a long and storied modeling career. Smoldering in a trench coat, Alex was fresh-faced, perfectly posed, and definitely ready for the big time.

Bizarrely, the Burberry shoot was more or less the last time anyone put Alex in front of a camera. Although he booked a gig here and there during that year, including as a spokesmodel for the Silhouette eyeglass company, the budding young model never bloomed into a continual presence on the scene. Instead, he stopped working in the business entirely, and has left almost no public trace of what he's been up to. 

There are reports online that Alex Watson enrolled at the University of Bristol to study politics and philosophy after graduating from high school, but we're unable to confirm whether or not that's true. It would make sense, given his own self-professed academic inclinations, not to mention the fact that higher ed runs in the family — his sister Emma got her degree in English literature at Brown University between Harry Potter movies. 

Why

If he did pursue a bachelor's degree, that doesn't mean he'll never go back to modeling and/or transition to acting like his sister. However, it also wouldn't be a surprise to find that his disappearing act is the result of a profound lack of interest in a life in showbiz. 

Celebrities With Siblings Just As Stunning As They Are

Conducted just before the start of his senior year in high school, that his areas of academic focus at the time were debating and politics. That speaks to a serious intellect, one that might not be satisfied by spending his career-making early years mugging for a camera or striding down a runway.

Another possible reason for Alex Watson's disappearance from the modeling scene: He doesn't `really look like the male incarnation of his sister anymore. Alex was a boyish 17 year old when he caught the eye of Burberry's casting director in 2010, and with his striking resemblance to Emma, the camera loved his face just as much as it still loves hers.

But the few photos taken of him since then suggest that the years have softened, rather than sharpened, those picture-perfect features — which doesn't make him any less good-looking, but does limit his options in an industry where chiseled cheekbones and angular jaws are the standard. In recent pics, like this one taken at a wedding, Emma's brother looks less like a fashion plate and more like a regular-grade handsome man.

In these hyper-connected times, any aspiring celeb worth his salt needs to be active on at least one social media platform, whether he's sharing micro-thoughts on Twitter, connecting with fans via Snapchat, or blowing up Instagram with best-life selfies, Alex Watson isn't just surprisingly inactive on the internet for a semi-famous person; he's a ghost, even by ordinary standards.

Although there are several unverified Instagram and Facebook accounts attributed to Alex, it is unclear if he ever really committed to the whole social media scene. One such Instagram account that was set up in his name was only active for about six weeks in total before ceasing updates entirely in 2012, and a Facebook page attributed to him was a similar story. Since 2013 or so, there hasn't been so much as a digital peep from Mr. Watson — and between his own personal radio silence plus the total lack of a publicist or promotional machine making the effort on his behalf, it's almost like he's ceased to exist.

When Alex Watson first emerged as a person of interest on the public scene, he had no shortage of adoring fans — who were also avid followers of the #alexwatson hashtag wherever it popped up. Even after it became clear that Alex had dropped out of sight, his fanbase kept the love going for a good long time, revisiting his various modeling shots and drooling over every increasingly-rare sighting of the younger Watson in the wild.

But even the most devoted Watsonians eventually stopped updating their feeds after years went by without Alex reemerging from his self-imposed Hollywood exile. After all, you can only post so many throwback pics from that one Burberry campaign before it all starts to feel stale. As of this writing, the only fan account still active on Twitter was @AlexWatsonFans, where roughly 3, 000 followers gather for nostalgic flashbacks to Alex's brief moment in the spotlight and collectively Awwww over the way he once almost ate a puppy.

As a model and music video star with a mega-famous sister, you'd think Alex Watson would make regular appearances in the paparazzi photo pool — but these days, you're more likely to see a shot of Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster than you are of Emma Watson's handsome baby bro. In fact, Alex hasn't been photographed for years, except in the company of Emma.

Sightings of him are so rare that the last public snap we could find was on a random fan site that claims to have gotten a pic of Alex and Emma together in Bristol, UK in 2015. Even then,
