She revealed that one of the more unusual items she always has in her bag is a fluffy white rabbit hot water bottle, which she even takes with her on flights and requests flight attendants to fill with hot water.

In addition to her unique hot water bottle, Emma also makes sure to carry environmentally friendly items in her bag, reflecting her dedication as a United Nations spokesperson advocating for the achievement of the UN’s 17 global goals, including combatting climate change.
Cold: In the video, the actress from Little Women is seen grabbing a scarf because she’s always feeling freezing cold. She also reveals that she carries two phones, one for work and one for personal use.
In her busy bag, the celebrity rummages to find a leather hair scrunchie, some Pop Rocks candy that she enjoys, tampons, a vitamin pouch from her mom, the book Beloved by Toni Morrison for her book club, and personalized thank-you cards. She also proudly shares that she carries vegan deodorant in a recycled container, reusable makeup remover pads, and a glass straw that she claims is better than a metal one. Emma admits she’s unsure if the glass straw will eventually break, but so far, it’s held up. Additionally, her bag holds tooth mousse, Nutella dip, a makeup pouch, keys with a whistle, rose water mist, sunglasses sans case, muscle rub, sunscreen, and nail polish.

Awesome: The celebrity’s handbag is packed with items such as tooth mousse for enamel protection, a Nutella dip, a compact makeup kit, her house keys attached to a whistle, a refreshing rose water mist, and a pair of sunglasses sans a case.
Inspiration: Emma shared that she, too, uses a Five Minute Journal where she notes down things she is grateful for, a daily affirmation, three positive things that happened that day, and how she could have improved her day.
The revelation about her journaling habits came after Emma expressed her satisfaction with inspiring others through her controversial statement about being ‘self-partnered’.
The term was coined by the actress during an interview with British Vogue, causing a surprising and ‘crazy’ reaction. Despite initially seeing it as a casual remark, Emma is pleased that her words have empowered people.
Emma, a United Nations spokesperson, is an advocate for supporting the UN’s 17 global goals, one of which is addressing climate change. She also carries a variety of eco-friendly products in her bag.
In the video’s conclusion, Emma proudly declares, “There you have it – ta-da! That’s why they call me the bag lady!” The next day, she woke up to a flurry of messages from friends about the term “self-partnered” going viral, leaving her puzzled.
The actress clarified that being self-partnered is not just about being single; it’s more about having a positive relationship with oneself and feeling complete without needing someone else. Tom Felton, her Harry Potter co-star, was among the celebrities who supported her stance.
In a recent interview, Emma shared that she felt empowered by her previous comments on being ‘self-partnered’, which caused quite a debate. She mentioned that she resonated with the concept of being happily self-partnered, emphasizing that it’s essential to love yourself before loving someone else. Emma admitted that it took her a while to embrace her single status, as she previously thought the idea of being happy single was just ‘spiel’.
It took me quite some time, but I’m really content with being single. I like to think of it as being my own partner. Emma’s coined phrase seems reminiscent of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin’s well-known term ‘conscious uncoupling,’ used to describe their divorce back in 2014. The Beauty and the Beast actress was last rumored to be dating Dominic Piazza, with the two seen together on various occasions in August. She also had a brief relationship with former Oculus CEO Brendan Iribe, who is 40 years old. Emma was previously in a relationship with Glee actor Chord Overstreet, but they broke up after six months.
“I belong in that group too”: Tom Felton, 32, who starred alongside Emma in Harry Potter, was among the many celebrity pals showing their support for her (seen together in a photo from this past summer).
