Let’s be honest, we all have had that someone who was our childhood crush, the one that you feel like you are being attracted to differently for the first time. It can be either a famous personality or even a virtual entity altogether, it’s just that sensation of attraction that you can feel that feels special. Even celebrities have their very own celebrity crushes from their time which many have come forth to confess on the wider media, and it is always so cute when we see them blush while they reveal who they were attracted to in their childhood days.

A similar kind of situation, which was both beautiful and a little comical happened with our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Just last year, while promoting his then-upcoming film, Tom Holland revealed how he fell head-first for his first crush before Zendaya, the star of one of the biggest film franchises and the very beautiful, Emma Watson.

How Tom Holland Fell In Love With Emma Watson

In a new interview with W Magazine, Tom Holland discussed his role in the then-upcoming Russo Brothers film Cherry, his American accent, his first kiss, and his first crush on a movie star. When asked who was he enamored with, without hesitation he revealed that he fell madly in love with the star of the Harry Potter franchise Emma Watson, who played the role of Hermione Granger in the film series.

Tom Holland further gave us more details about the exact moment when he fell in love with the Harry Potter star. He revealed that “In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. She wears this pink dress. That was mind-blowing for me,”  Holland was referring to one particular scene in the film where Hermione walks into the Yule Ball wearing a pink gown. She turned everyone’s heads as she descended the staircase, with much of the student body admiring her look. When Hermione spent most of the evening with Viktor Krum, it pissed a jealous Ron off. Even Draco took a break from insulting her.

If you are familiar with the film and remember this particular scene, you might also be in the club of fans who specifically remember this particular scene from The Goblet Of Fire. If this was the reason may why Holland was completely mesmerized by Emma Watson, then we can sympathize with him on it. Emma Watson not only took Hogwart’s attention away from everything else, but she also stole the hearts of all the fans that gazed upon her absolutely stunning image in that lovely pink dress.

Tom Holland found a beautiful and caring partner in the form of his Spider-Man co-star Zendaya. They officially confirmed their relationship on Instagram on 1st September 2021 on Zendaya’s 25th birthday, and fans were overjoyed to see that all those rumors that they had been following were actually true!
