“I walked into the room where we were having tutoring. The assignment that had been given was to draw what you thought god looked like, and Tom had drawn a girl with a backward cap on a skateboard. And I just don’t know how to say it – I just fell in love with him.
I used to come in every day and look for his number on the call sheet, it was number seven, and if his name was on the call sheet, it was an extra exciting day. He was three years above me and so for him he was like, you’re like my little sister,” she said.
The actor was talking on the sidelines of the HBO Max special ‘Return To Hogwarts’ which saw the cast reunite to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first movie ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’.

Despite being at the centre of dating rumours for years, to Emma’s disappointment nothing ever happened between her and Tom. But the 34-year-old actor admitted that he was fully aware of his secret admirer.
Tom said: “I think I was in the hair and make-up chair and someone said something along the lines of, ‘Yeah, she had a crush on you.’
I became very protective over her. Yeah, I’ve always had a soft spot for her and that continues to the day.
There’s always been something that’s like, I don’t know, a kinship.”
