Actor Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter, says he learned that Emma Watson had a crush on him through grapevine and found it very "flattering".
The 23-year-old actor is dating another Harry Potter star Jade Gordon (Astoria Malfoy), who plays his onscreen wife in the last part.
"I heard it through the grapevine. We can laugh about it now, but as testament to how long we've been doing this for, I'm pretty sure she was about 9, possibly 10... but yeah, very flattering," Felton said.
While Watson had her eyes on him, Felton says he had a crush on Helena Bonham Carter.
"Coincidentally, that was my childhood crush." The actor says he wrote the older actress a sweet note in a card "after the third or fourth film."

Helena Bonham Carter felt like she had "come home" when she met Tim Burton.
The British actress - who raises children Billy, seven and Nell, three, with the US director - has the same "moral values" as her long-term partner and she enjoys being with him because of how creative he is.
She said: "There are a lot of things we've got in common; we've got the same moral values and the same humour which can be quite playful and childish. I also like how creative Tim is. We feel so comfortable with each other. It's as if I've finally come home."
However, when they first met on the set of 2001 movie 'Planet of the Apes' - which he directed and she starred in - the pair did not hit it off immediately.
She told German website Tele 5: "Me and Tim weren't really close during shooting; we hardly talked to each other. Only a few months later we met again and hit it off straight away."
Despite the pair's closeness, 44-year-old Helena has previously revealed she would like to work with directors other than him.
She joked: "I am available for work other than with the boyfriend. And I will certainly make it a calmer, easier, happier set to work on."
