On the upcoming Harry Potter reunion, Emma Watson shared how she "fell in love" with Tom Felton while on the set of Harry Potter.
“I walked into the room where we were having tutoring,” Emma explained. “The assignment that had been given was to draw what you thought God looked like, and Tom had drawn a girl with a backward cap on a skateboard. And I just don’t know how to say it - I just fell in love with him.” She added, “I used to come in every day and look for his number on the call sheet, it was number seven, and if his name was on the call sheet, it was an extra exciting day. He was three years above me and so for him, he was like, ‘you’re like my little sister.’”
For his part, Tom denied anything romantic ever happened. “I think I was in the hair and make-up chair and someone said something along the lines of, ‘yeah, she had a crush on you.’ I became very protective over her," Tom said. “Yeah, I’ve always had a soft spot for her and that continues to this day. There’s always been something that’s like, I don’t know, a kinship.”
Daniel Radcliffe also shared that he and Emma swapped dating advice, including "prepping and coaching" each other on how to respond to text messages. He said: "If she was texting a boy or I was texting a girl, I would be like, 'She sent me this many kisses back. What do I do? This is a nightmare.'"
