Robert Pattinson and Emma Watson news: Golden Globes 2018 appearance sparks dating rumors

Robert Pattinson and Emma Watson were recently seen together at the 2018 Golden Globes, and fans are freaking out. Rumors started swirling that the two "Harry Potter" stars are dating.

According to In Touch Weekly, Watson just broke up with tech entrepreneur William "Mack" Knight, but she already moved on with Pattinson. The report adds that the two have been texting each other and spending secret dinners together in London and L.A. The outlet continues that the two have the same sense of humor and they always had chemistry. It also points out that the timing was just not right, which is why they never got together before.

The pair presented the Best TV Movie or Limited Series award, and this immediately sparked rumors that they went out as a couple. Fans were happy to see the two stars together on stage. Watson, 27, and Pattinson,31 have been friends since 2005 when they filmed "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." Watson played Hermione Granger, while Pattinson portrayed the role of Cedric Diggory in the "Harry Potter" franchise.

However, Gossip Cop debunks the rumor saying that Watson and Pattinson are not a new couple and they did not go public with their relationship. The website adds that the two are not dating and they are not in a relationship. Despite the report of an alleged source, those who are close to the stars reveal that they are only friends and nothing has changed between them.

It was clarified that presenting an award together is not a confirmation of a relationship. Gossip Cop also says that the celebrity presenters do not choose who they are paired up with. This indicates that Watson and Pattinson's pairing was not their choice.

But whether they are dating or not, fans are just delighted that they saw their two beloved "Harry Potter" stars on stage. Many fans of the movie series expressed their joy on social media after seeing their mini-reunion.
