Emma Watson is a rare specimen in the Hollywood industry. There is practically no actress who, at her age, 32, and at the height of her career, has decided on a voluntary hiatus. After a childhood marked by the success of Harry Potter and turned into one of the most important British actresses, the artist lives retired, for now, from acting and determined to safeguard her private life. Perhaps that is why her exposure to the media is so limited.
It had been five months since the unforgettable Hermione had not been seen on a red carpet and on Monday she finally reappeared at the Elton John AIDS Foundation party, held in West Hollywood Park in Los Angeles.
In a semi-transparent black off-the-shoulder dress, Emma allowed herself to be photographed by journalists. Watson did not attend the Oscars ceremony – the last time was in 2014 – but she did not want to miss the charity party of the singer and her husband David Furnish, which this year reached its 31st edition. Other celebrities such as Heidi Klum, Brooke Shields, Hilary Duff and Paulina Rubio also attended the party.
Emma, ??who ventured into directing last summer with a short film for the Prada Paradoxe fragrance campaign in which she also starred, lives away from the spotlight and has put her acting career on hold. On occasion, she has expressed how much she values ??her privacy. “My life story has been in the public interest, which is why I have worked so hard to have a private identity,” she said in 2017.
His last release to date has been Little Women directed by Greta Gerwig in 2019. However, this is not strange in his career, since before he had spent two years without participating in any production after in 2017 he starred in the thriller The Circle and Beauty and the Beast for Disney.
In 2021, rumors spread that she was retiring from acting and that she had been engaged to the Californian businessman Leo Robinton, something that she was forced to deny. “Dear fans, rumors about whether or not I’m engaged or whether or not my career is inactive are ways to create clicks every time it’s revealed to be true or not,” she wrote on her Twitter account. “If I have news, I promise I’ll share it with you.”
Little is known of his love life. After breaking up with Robinton, the actress began dating Brandon Green, 29, the son of billionaire Sir Philip Green, former owner of the Topshop clothing firm. Last summer she was seen enjoying a few relaxing days in Venice. Apparently, they have been together since September 2021. The couple share ideals and both are very interested in biodiversity and in different actions to save the oceans.
And it is that in her post-Hermione life, the actress has taken advantage of her media projection and has established herself as one of the greatest activists of a new generation, fighting for feminism and environmental sustainability.
About her love relationships she has always been very hermetic. “I can’t talk about my partner in public and then hope they don’t take pictures of us walking down the street,” she said in an interview with Vanity Fair in 2017. “I think going with your boyfriend to a red carpet somehow makes you part of all this. I wouldn’t want the person I’m with to feel like they’re involved in some kind of circus.”
Watson has a degree in English Literature. Already as a child, she was very clear that the most important thing was her academic training. When she made the first Harry Potter movie, she was just 11 years old. And in the last one, she was 21. her In these years she always gave priority to her studies, and in fact it was one of the conditions that she requested when signing the contract with the producers of the saga. They say that in high school she got the best grade in her class. And many do not know that she turned down several roles in Hollywood for prioritizing her studies.
Emma continues working to be herself, moving away from fame and an industry with which she confesses that she has never quite connected.
