Emma Watson recently celebrated her 33rd birthday by looking back on a year filled with personal growth and new experiences. The actress, famous for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series, talked about how she delved into gin making, therapy, and launched a women’s environmental investment fund. She mentioned how she learned more about love and womanhood during this time, attributing it to what she called ‘Saturn’s Return’. Emma, who was born on April 15, 1990, has been less active on social media since her last post on Instagram in December 2022. She posted a collection of monochrome photographs capturing her in different outfits on her birthday last year, captioning it with reflections on turning 33 and the impact of Saturn Return on her life.

I’m feeling grateful. The actress, famous for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, shared on Instagram that she has embraced the past year as a time for personal growth. She talked about stepping away from her usual routine, trying new things like surfing and horseback riding, and prioritizing her mental health with therapy sessions. She also mentioned adopting a dog named Sofia in Mexico, filming a Harry Potter reunion, and experiencing both loss and joy with her grandparents. Additionally, she discussed starting an environmental investment fund for women and exploring new hobbies like pickleball and golf. Despite facing challenges like cutting her thumb while cooking and feeling moments of sadness and frustration, she emphasized that she has learned a lot about love and womanhood. She reflected on the progress she has made in establishing a daily routine and pursuing different interests such as website design and commercial directing. The photos she shared were actually taken on her birthday last year, but she wasn’t ready to emerge from her “Covid Cocoon” at that time.

In her heartfelt post, Emma expressed gratitude to the supportive group of friends she fondly refers to as her coven, comparing them to superheroes like the Avengers for inspiring and empowering her. She also thanked her brother and close friends for adding humor to life’s challenges, along with giving a shoutout to collaborators and beauty brands that she holds dear.
Emma’s notable works include her roles in films such as the 2019 period drama Little Women, the 2017 live-action musical Beauty And The Beast, and the 2012 coming-of-age story The Perks Of Being A Wallflower.
Apart from her successful acting career, Emma is recognized for her advocacy for women’s rights. In 2014, she was appointed as a goodwill ambassador for UN Women and played a pivotal role in launching the HeForShe campaign, aimed at promoting gender equality.
Emma recently shared about her get-together with Daniel Radcliffe, known for portraying Harry Potter on the big screen, and Rupert Grint, who brought Ron Weasley to life, for an exclusive HBO special.
The trio of stars reunited once again for the special event Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts, bringing together Daniel, Rupert, and Emma in 2001.
In August, she stepped into the director’s chair for the first time to create a short film for the launch of Prada’s new women’s fragrance. She also talked about this project as part of her reflection on the past year.
Additionally, she shared details about her participation in the filming of the reunion special ‘Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts,’ which aired in January 2022.
During the HBO special, she revealed her previous ‘crush’ on her co-star Tom Felton, who portrayed Draco Malfoy, and reunited with Daniel Radcliffe, known for his role as Harry Potter, as well as Rupert Grint, who played Ron Weasley.
These talented actors worked together on the magical film series, adapted from JK Rowling’s novels, starting with ‘Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone’ in 2001 and concluding with ‘Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows – Part 2’ in 2011.
In a delightful turn of events during the HBO special, she confessed to having feelings for her fellow castmate Tom Felton, who brought Draco Malfoy to life on screen. The two were even pictured together back in 2004, making fans hearts swoon with excitement.
