British actress Emma Watson is best known for playing the role of Hermione Granger in the very successful “Harry Potter” movie series where she transformed from a precocious pre-teener to a beautiful lady.
Rumors are now rife that there’s a new Harry in the life of the 24-year-old Emma Watson and it is no other than Prince Harry of the England royal family.
Prince Harry is the younger brother of Prince William and both are the sons of Prince Charles and the late Lady Diana of Wales.
At 30 years old, Prince Harry makes many women not only in UK but also in different parts of the world swoon over him because of his refined good looks.
But with the rumors propagating these days about Prince Harry and UN Ambassador Emma Watson getting very hot, it certainly douse cold water on those women crushes on the middle-aged England prince.
Social media talk
Social media has been abuzz lately about the dating rumors between the two high-profile British personalities that if and when the two confirms the going-on between them, it would certainly break the internet, opines Stuff.co.nz.
Over at Twitter, fans were mostly praising all those speculations that Prince Harry and Emma Watson are dating.
One post said that if it is true that Prince Harry is dating Emma Watson, then he is lucky to be dating royalty. One female fan was even cheering the supposed relationship and said: ‘Long live Princess Emma!’
Another one cited that Emma Watson and Prince Harry are apparently dating and it’s just too much excitement to handle.
There are also some clever social media folks who theorized that if Prince Harry and Emma Watson marry and have a son, it would be a ‘half-blood Prince,’ which is one of the titles of the “Harry Potter” movie series.
Back to old tradition
Under the old British tradition, royals can only marry royals. But that has been broken already by Prince William when he married commoner Kate Middleton on April 29, 2011 at Westminster Abbey in London, England.
However, in the case of Emma Watson, she has a royal status by appointment and not by birth since she is the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador.
So if and when she and Prince Harry come to a point where they shall marry, then the old tradition of ‘royals marrying royals’ can be reinstated and it would most likely breed to Watson royalty that some fans are already looking forward to.
Emma Watson was nominated for her UN post in July 2014 after graduating from Brown University. She has been promoting gender equality and advocating UN Women’s HeForShe campaign.
Up until December 2014, she has been dating Matthew Janney, a rugby player. They dated for a year. Before Janney, she also dated Brown University heartthrob Will Adamowicz.
Prince Harry was previously linked to British star Cressida Bonas but is now officially single.
