Rowling, where the author admitted to making a mistake by shipping Hermione with Ron, Watson was asked about her honest opinion.
Joven asked:
In your interview with J.K. Rowling, you discussed if Hermione should have ended up with Harry instead of Ron. We know who Hermione would have ended up with, but what about Emma Watson? Who would you have ended up with?
Watson replied:
Umm… none of the above.
With her honest response, Emma Watson dropped a bombshell that’s sure to send shockwaves through the hearts of Potterheads everywhere.

Havingplayed the role of Hermione Grangerin theHarry Potterfilms, Emma Watson askedJ.K Rowlingif her onscreen character should have ended up with Daniel Radcliffe’s titular character Harry Potter, instead of Rupert Grint’s Ron Weasley. Surprisingly, Rowling agreed that Harry and Hermione were a better match and that she might have made a mistake.
I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment. That’s how it was conceived, really.
For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron. I know, I’m sorry.
Therefore, while Emma Watson fanned the fire by claiming that she wouldn’t have chosen anyone fromtheHarry Potternovels, the spark was first started by J.K. Rowling. Despite writing the novels in a particular way that felt soothing for readers, the author changed the course of the plot when she agreed that Hermione would have ended up with Harry if she wasn’t clinging to her preconceived notion.
