Emma Watson has been spotted looking very loved up with a new man in a series of photos taken at an airport.
Harry Potter star Watson, 35, who previously said she was 'self-partnered' in a Vogue interview, appears to have found love with a Mexican entrepreneur.
Watson previously claimed, "It took me a long time, but I’m very happy [being single]. I call it being self-partnered," however her love life seems to have improved judging by the new photos that have emerged.
Taken on Wednesday, the pictures show the casually-dressed celeb embracing and kissing the rumoured new man, who has been identified as a billionaire businessman.

The couple were later seen out for dinner and drinks, and were reportedly first seen together in the French Alps back in late 2025, according to Quién.
People reports that the mystery man has been revealed as Gonzalo Hevia Baillères.
He is linked to Grupo Bal, the Baillères business empire, which has ties to mining, insurance, retail, and finance.
He attended a Swiss boarding school called Le Rosey, followed by the Ransom Everglades School in Miami, and comes from the fourth-richest family in Mexico, according to Forbes.
The entrepreneur later graduated with a degree in Economics from ITAM, according to Us Weekly, and is now CEO of Lok, an AI tech company.
He was previously linked to a Mexican pop star and actress, who goes by the name Belinda, who is believed to have written a song about him.
She penned a tune called Heterochromia, named after a condition where someone's eyes are two different colours, which Baillères apparently has.
Belinda also referred to someone being from 'old money' in the song.
According to Cosmopolitan, he also works with Coca-Cola Femsa, who are responsible for the iconic Mexican Coke bottles.
Just a few months ago, Watson expressed she had been feeling the pressure 'that I had to be married or have a baby or [be] moving into a house.
"I’m just so happy not to be divorced yet," she confessed, "I think we’re being pressured and forced into this thing that I believe is a kind or miracle. I might never be worthy of it."
"I hope it happens to me but I don’t feel entitled to it. It will either be part of purpose here and my destiny or it won’t," she added.
She also told Jay Shetty she found it easier to date when someone wasn't a fan of her films.
Watson said she wanted a partner to 'appreciate my work, but I think knowing you don't have to navigate that extra degree of, like, weirdness is helpful, a relief.'
She added: "It's funny, occasionally people will apologize to me for the fact they've not seen my films. And I will be like, 'Please don't apologize. That is bliss to me.' Like, music to my ears that you're not going to constantly be navigating it, and me also navigating with you this projection of me, or this Emma Watson avatar-person will not be this ghost in the room."
