Emma Watson’s Relationship History: Who Has the ‘Harry Potter’ Star Dated?

Emma Watson is well-known as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movie adaptations. Now, she’s all grown up — and in 2026, rumors are swirling surrounding her and her alleged new boyfriend, Gonzalo Hevia Baillères. So, who has the actor dated in the past, well before her current relationship? Here’s what to know about Watson’s relationship history, including other stars she’s dated.

Emma Watson dated several men, including a reality TV personality, from 2006 to 2009

Early in her rise to fame during the Harry Potter film series, Emma Watson experienced several teenage relationships. One of her first publicly known boyfriends was rugby player Tom Ducker. They dated from around 2006 to 2007, according to PopSugar UK.

Following that breakup, Watson was briefly linked to Australian drama student Angus Willoughby, whom she reportedly met while studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London. The two were said to have dated from 2007 to 2008 while both were preparing for university. However, the relationship ended as their paths diverged and Watson began planning her move to study abroad.

Not long afterward, she was rumored to have had a short-lived romance with British socialite and future Made in Chelsea personality Francis Boulle. Boulle later confirmed they had “a bit of a thing….” He said he ended the fling because he wanted to build a reputation independent of her fame.

By 2008, Watson had begun dating British financier Jay Barrymore, a relationship that lasted roughly a year. The couple reportedly split in 2009 as Watson prepared to attend Brown University, with sources suggesting the long-distance nature of their relationship proved difficult to maintain.

Her college-era romances included an actor, an Oxford student, and a model

After beginning her studies at Brown University in 2009, Emma Watson was briefly linked to Spanish musician and fellow student Rafael Cebrián. The two were reportedly seen spending time together on campus and in New York City around 2009–2010, Hollywood Life reports.

Around the same time, Watson was also connected to British singer and model George Craig, the frontman of One Night Only. Their rumored romance gained attention in 2010 after they appeared together in a Burberry campaign. The relationship was believed to be short-lived.

In 2011, Watson was briefly linked to actor Johnny Simmons after the two met while filming The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Reports at the time suggested they spent time together during production in Pittsburgh, though the relationship did not last long after filming wrapped.

Watson later entered a more serious relationship with fellow Oxford student Will Adamowicz. The pair began dating around 2011 and were photographed together at various public outings and events during the early 2010s. Watson was studying at the University of Oxford at the time. Their relationship lasted for roughly two years before they reportedly split in 2013.

In 2014, Emma Watson began dating Oxford University rugby player Matt Janney while studying at the University of Oxford, according to People. The relationship drew media attention after the pair were photographed together during everyday outings, including walks in London. Watson later described the breakup that same year as “horrendous.” She explained in interviews that she went through a difficult emotional period following the split before throwing herself back into work and activism.

In 2015, Watson was briefly linked to actor Roberto Aguire. She had known him for years after he interned in the special effects department for the production of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Aguire later pursued acting. And the two reportedly dated for a short time before parting ways.

Not long afterward, Watson entered a more serious relationship with Silicon Valley entrepreneur William “Mack” Knight. The couple began dating around 2015 and were occasionally photographed together in cities such as London and New York. Their relationship reportedly lasted until 2017.

She was later linked to a ‘Glee’ actor and a tech CEO

In 2018, Emma Watson was briefly linked to Glee actor and singer Chord Overstreet, according to Elle. The pair reportedly met through mutual friends and sparked romance rumors on multiple occasions, including after leaving the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty together. By March 2018, they were photographed holding hands during a walk in Los Angeles. Their relationship remained relatively low-key and lasted only a few months before reports surfaced of a split.

Later in 2018, Watson was also linked to venture capitalist Brendan Wallace after the two were photographed kissing while on vacation in Mexico. The relationship was never publicly confirmed by Watson.

By the following year, she entered one of her more serious relationships with Los Angeles businessman Leo Robinton. The couple was first spotted kissing in London in 2019 and were occasionally photographed together during the following year. However, they largely stayed out of the spotlight. Watson addressed widespread engagement rumors in 2021, telling fans online that relationship speculation was often used for clicks.

Watson was later linked to entrepreneur Brandon Green, the son of British retail tycoon Philip Green. The two first sparked dating rumors in September 2021. Over the next year, they were photographed traveling together in places such as Venice. Reports later indicated the relationship ended by early 2023.

In 2024, Emma Watson sparked dating speculation after she was photographed spending time with Oxford academic Kieran Brown, a PhD student at the University of Oxford. He was spotted with Watson on multiple occasions around the university city. The pair was reportedly introduced through academic circles while Watson continued her graduate studies. Although neither publicly confirmed the relationship, their appearances together led to widespread reports that they were romantically involved into 2025.
