Emma Watson & Prince Harry Are the Couple of Our Dreams

Move over, Kate Middleton—there’s another royal joining the family… and no, we don’t mean her second child.

As if we needed another reason to want to be Emma Watson, a source revealed to Woman’s Day Australia this week that the intelligent, talented and beautiful actress is secretly dating Prince Harry


There are about a million things running through our minds right now. Will Emma and Kate swap hair secrets? Will the United Nations spokeswoman transform Harry into #HeForShe’s biggest advocate? How big of a hat will she wear to the Royal Ascot? 

Apparently, Harry had mutual friends put him in touch with Emma after he heard that she’d broken up with her rugby player boyfriend last year—a source says he emailed her, saying that he would “like to get to know her.” In true Harry form, he arranged the meet-up at a party.

“Harry didn’t want her to feel like she was put on the spot,” an insider explained of the move. “A party also shows he’s fun and not stuffy.” 

Reports say the prince is “smitten.” Fortunately, Emma has already met (some of) the family—she met brother William and dad Charles at a charity event last year… and we have no doubt she’d impress Queen Elizabeth, too.

Is this a match made in heaven? Or just too good to be true?
