”Like other people who have never experienced adult life without the cushioning of wealth and fame, Emma Watson has so little experience of real life that she is ignorant of how ignorant she is”, writes JK Rowling on X.

Emma Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the films, recently said that she still loves the Harry Potter author and therefore refuses to dismiss her even though they have different views on gender identity.

Both Watson and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) distanced themselves from Rowling when she claimed that trans activism has eroded the concept of biological sex. Rowling in turn has denied being transphobic and claims that she cares about women's safety.
