Thanks to a video of an interview from 2001 posted by a user on the social network TikTok, the renowned actress Emma Watson went viral for her reaction to the question about having a crush on Prince William, the next heir to the UK throne.
Regis Philbin from the talk show asked, “Somebody told me you have a big crush on Prince William?” Watson, upon hearing the question, she blushed, and before mentioning any words, she only showed a small and shy smile that confirmed that her love for the son of the current king was real.
The video posted only shows a small part of the interview, followed by many images of Prince William during his youth, but in the full version of the program, it can be seen that, after smiling, Watson responded to the question by saying, “A little bit“, making clear her feelings for the Prince of Wales.
