Emma Watson has coined a new term for being single, describing herself as 'self-partnered' in a recent interview with British Vogue. The actress, best known for playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, opened up about the pressures of turning 30 and societal expectations around relationships.
Watson explained that she never believed one could be happy while single, but now embraces the idea of being 'self-partnered.' She said, 'It took me a long time, but I'm very happy [being single].' The actress also revealed that the past year has been tough due to the anxiety surrounding turning 30 and the 'subliminal messaging' about having a husband or baby.
Since her Harry Potter days, Watson's career has flourished with roles in films like The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Noah, and Disney's live-action Beauty and the Beast. She is set to star in the upcoming adaptation of Little Women alongside Timothée Chalamet, Saoirse Ronan, and Florence Pugh.
