You brought an editing mistake of a mislabeled photograph to our attention. New version up shortly." View this post on Instagram Instagram PostWhile Emma Watson has not addressed the situation so far, the special episode saw the actress share several anecdotes from the franchise, including her childhood crush on co-star Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter:“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."However, Watson also clarified that there was no romantic involvement between the two:“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.'”Meanwhile, it also remains to be seen if Emma Roberts will react to her childhood photo being accidentally used for the Harry Potter reunion in the days to come.The Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts reunion special is currently streaming on HBO Max.
