As Emma Watson celebrated her 33rd birthday, she didn’t miss the chance to reflect on the past few years of her life.

In an Instagram spree that saw the Harry Potter star release six stunning photos, one post included a candid admission that Watson had “stepped away from [her] life”.

“This is 33. Holy moly. Before 29 I hadn’t even heard of a Saturn Return as a concept. Let’s just say that now I am well acquainted,” the star, who has been largely out of the spotlight, began.

“I stepped away from my life – I learned to surf (badly), I rode some horses (that went better), I did a lot of therapy (YESS therapy!).”

Watson made sure not to leave out the downfalls of the past few years.

“I cut my thumb nail off on both hands trying to cook for myself and then was only able to do things one handed for months,” she wrote.

“I felt really sad and really pissed off about a lot of things. I learnt more about love and being a woman.”

She explained the silver lining that appeared for her after years of attempting to master a consistent lifestyle.

“It took me three years but I have finally figured out a daily practice and can actually keep it for more than a few days in a row,” she wrote.

“These pictures were actually taken on my birthday last year, but I wasn’t ready to come out of my Covid Cocoon.”

Many celebrities flooded the comments with well wishes for the actress.

Vanessa Hudgens wrote “What a goddess”, while Nicola Adams added: “Life is a journey.”

Clementine Ford also chimed in to wish the star a happy birthday: “I love this for you! Happy birthday. May the years continue to bring wisdom and peace to you.”

Social media posts are rare coming from Watson. Only two years ago, the actress’ social media absence sparked rumours she had quit acting.

A report claimed Watson was retiring, with an unnamed source saying she was focusing on settling down with her boyfriend at the time, businessman Leo Robinton.

“Emma Watson has gone ‘dormant’ according to her agent. That appears to be movie-speak for she’s ‘given up acting,'” the article read, with the source quoted as saying, “Emma has gone underground, she is settling down with Leo. They’re laying low. Maybe she wants a family.”

Watson’s manager, Jason Weinberg, spoke out against the bogus claims at the time. 

“Emma’s social media accounts are dormant but her career isn’t,” he told Entertainment Weekly.

Hugh Grant’s lawsuit alleging illegal snooping by British tabloid can go to trial, court says

Published

on

A London court on Friday rejected an attempt by the publisher of The Sun tabloid to throw out a lawsuit by actor Hugh Grant alleging that journalists and investigators it hired illegally snooped on him.

Justice Timothy Fancourt said a trial in January will have to determine whether The Sun had carried out unlawful information gathering that included tapping his landline and bugging his car and breaking into his home.

News Group Newspapers (NGN), which owns The Sun, had argued that Grant didn’t bring his claims within a six-year time limit.

Hugh Grant arrives at the 23rd annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles, Sunday Jan. 29, 2023.

The judge dismissed Grant’s phone hacking claims on time limitation grounds, but said the case could proceed on the other allegations.

“It was only on seeing invoices disclosed … in 2021 that Mr. Grant believed that private investigators (PIs) had been instructed by The Sun to target him in various ways, particularly in 2011,” Fancourt wrote.

The case was argued during a hearing last month that also included phone hacking allegations by Prince Harry against News Group, Rupert Murdoch’s British newspapers.

Fancourt’s ruling didn’t address the Duke of Sussex’s case because he wants to hear more about Harry’s allegations that he was prevented from bringing his claims much sooner because of a “secret agreement” between Buckingham Palace and Murdoch’s papers.

Hugh Grant arrives at the Rolls Buildings in central London for the conclusion of News Group Newspapers (NGN) phone hacking hearing Thursday April 27, 2023.

Harry alleged that the royal family had agreed to settle their cases with NGN, publisher of the defunct News of the World, out of court after related litigation died down.

He said the deal called for an apology from the newspapers. In court papers, Harry said that he only brought his lawsuit when efforts to expedite that settlement failed.

He said his brother, Prince William, heir to the throne, subsequently received a “huge” settlement over phone hacking allegations against News Group.

Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, right and his brother Prince Harry take part in a trade on the BGC Partners trading floor, during the BGC Charity Day 2013, in Canary Wharf, London, Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013.

NGN has denied there was a “secret agreement.” The palace hasn’t responded to messages seeking comment on that or William’s alleged settlement.

A spokesperson for News Group issued a statement on Friday saying that it was pleased that the court threw out Grant’s phone hacking allegations.

“NGN strongly denies the various historical allegations of unlawful information-gathering contained in what remains of Mr. Grant’s claim,” the statement said.
