Harry Potter star Emma Watson has said she will still “cherish” her previous relationship with JK Rowling, despite their more recent rift over transgender rights.
The actor has previously taken issue with the author’s gender critical beliefs, responding to Rowling’s essay about the need for single-sex spaces due to the threat of violence against women, by tweeting in 2020: “Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned or told they aren’t who they say they are.”
