After the filming of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 ended, the cast and crew members of the franchise said one final goodbye to each other. During the promotion of the movie, the Little Women actress revealed that during her childhood, she had a massive crush on Tom Felton. The reason that she gave for her crushing on the actor was also quite hilarious to hear.

“Between the ages of 10 and 12, I had a really terrible crush on Tom Felton. He was a few years older and he had a skateboard — and that just did it really.”

Unfortunately, Tom Felton did not reciprocate in the same way as he considered Emma Watson as his little sister. Following this statement, the actress never shared another part of her dating life with media outlets or Hollywood.
