Hollywood may look glamorous on the outside, but it’s not without its share of scandals. Many prominent Hollywood figures, including Emma Watson, have had their privacy violated in recent years. The Little Women actress’ images from the clothes fitting session with her stylist were stolen and leaked online in 2017.

Emma Watson’s n*de photos reportedly appeared on an anonymous file-sharing website. However, her representatives denied the reports.

According to some publications, Emma Watson’s alleged n*de images were leaked, but her representatives denied the reports and issued a statement. Her publicist issued a statement that said,

“Photos from clothes fitting Emma had with a stylist a couple of years ago have been stolen. They are not n*de photographs. Lawyers have been instructed and we are not commenting further.”

Her legal team didn’t reveal what action they were planning or against whom. In the same year, the British actress caused a stir when she was criticized for partially exposing her b*easts in a photo shoot for Vanity Fair magazine. In one picture, the star was photographed topless while covering her chest with a shawl.

Watson was accused of compromising her feminist values when she posed for the cover photo of Vanity Fair. She was appointed United Nations Women Goodwill Ambassador in 2014. Therefore, once the pictures from her photo shoot were revealed, netizens and publications accused her of being a hypocrite.

The Beauty and the Beast star commented on the issue in an interview with Reuters and said,

“Feminism is about giving women choice. Feminism is not a stick with which to beat other women with. It’s about freedom, it’s about liberation, it’s about equality. I really don’t know what my t—s have to do with it.”

Meanwhile, Watson once experienced a leak of n*de images threat in 2014 when she gave a speech on gender equality as a UN ambassador for women. In 2015, she addressed the issue and said that she knew the threat was a hoax, as such pictures never existed.

She expressed that she was quite stunned by the allegations.

The Harry Potter star has not appeared in any movie since 2019’s Little Women. Talking about her four-year-long absence from acting, Watson explained her decision and said that she was not happy in the film industry and felt caged.

The character of Hermoine Granger is still fresh in people’s minds, and her fans are eagerly waiting for her return. Her fans’ dream might come true as the beloved actress confirmed her return to the industry in early 2024.
