J.K Rowling appears to make fresh 7-word dig at Harry Potter co-stars after previously saying she will never forgive them

Harry Potter fans think J.K Rowling has 'taken aim' at the franchise's cast members in a recent post on X.

Over the last few years, the author, 59, has drawn a huge amount of backlash after she made some shocking and controversial comments about transgender rights.

In a tweet she wrote in 2020 in response to an opinion piece about 'people who menstruate', Rowling said: "'People who menstruate'. I’m sure there used to be a word for those people.

"Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?"

Following her comments, several Harry Potter actors publicly clarified that their own views did not align, specifically titular actor Daniel Radcliffe and 'Hermoine Granger' star Emma Watson.

Just this week over on X, Rowling responded to a question asking: "What actor/actress instantly ruins a movie for you?"

She responded: "Three guesses. Sorry, but that was irresistible."

And people think they know exactly who she was talking about.

Fans are adamant that Rowling was referring to Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint.

"My three guesses in one image," said one, alongside an image of the three actors.

Meanwhile, another added: "They literally made you what you are today."

While a third called it 'savage'.

At the time, both Radcliffe and Watson took their own stance on Rowling's comments.

In an essay he penned for the LGBTQ+ organisation The Trevor Project, Radcliffe firstly apologised for any 'pain' Rowling's views may have inflicted onto the community.

Watson, 34, meanwhile, told her fans: "I want my trans followers to know that I and so many other people around the world see you, respect you and love you for who you are."

The debate resurfaced last year, when Rowling clarified that she wouldn't forgive the actors for the stance they took.

After posting on Twitter about Hilary Cass' review on gender services for UK children, which she called 'the most robust review of the medical evidence for transitioning children that's ever been conducted', Rowling said: "Thousands are complicit, not just medics, but the celebrity mouthpieces, unquestioning media and cynical corporations."

One of her defenders wrote in response to the post: "Just waiting for Dan and Emma to give you a very public apology ... safe in the knowledge that you will forgive them ..."

However, Rowling then replied to say that they were ‘not safe’ in the knowledge of being forgiven by her.

“Not safe, I'm afraid,” she wrote.

“Celebs who cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women's hard-won rights and who used their platforms to cheer on the transitioning of minors can save their apologies for traumatised detransitioners and vulnerable women reliant on single sex spaces.”
