Although we would like to believe that the couples we see in the movies are real, offscreen, most of the stars have entirely different partners.

1. Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley

Despite his busy agenda fighting Voldemort and his lack of experience in romances, the star of the films managed to win the talented witch's heart to the point that she eventually became his wife.

In real life, Daniel Redcliffe is not that different from his character. The actor has dated some colleagues such as Laura O'Toole and Rosanne Coker.

However, the actress who truly enchanted his heart was Erin Darke. The pair met while shooting "Kill Your Darlings" in 2012.

The sweet couple has been together for almost eight years. On the other hand, Harry and Genny's magic wedding might have inspired actress Bonnie Wright's boyfriend to propose in real life.

In February 2010, the British girl confirmed a relationship with actor Jamie Campbell who had a part in "The Deathly Hallows."

However, the pair called off the wedding in June 2012. Bonnie soon started seeing Simon Hammerstein, the 12-year-older owner of the nightclub The Box. Reports indicate they were still dating in 2015, but the current status is unknown.

2. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger

Everyone was waiting for the kiss between these two characters, so it was pleasing to witness it in the saga's last installment.

However, many other fans expected the smart girl to end up with Harry. Surprisingly enough, both Daniel and Rupert confessed having had a crush on Emma, but those days are in the past.

Rupert keeps his romances low-key, so his current status is unknown. He used to date Georgia Groome, but his current status is unknown. The actor admitted that he enjoys being single and doesn't like chasing girls.

Emma Watson is also very private with her life. However, she's dating businessman Leo Robinton for more than a year. Their relationship became public when the lovebirds were pictured together in the fall of 2019.

3. Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange

Even villains like these two have a heart, and perhaps that is why they ended up in love and with a child, but offscreen, the actors are not an item. Ralph Fiennes wed his college sweetheart, Alex Kingston, in 1993.

Four years later, Ralph left Alex for another woman. Ralph had cheated on her with a woman 18 years senior: Francesca Annis. Annis and Fiennes started a relationship, but they separated in 2006.

Helena Bonham Carter is the face of Bellatrix, who had an affair with actor Kenneth Branagh while he was still married to Emma Thompson.

The pair met in 1994 while filming "Frankenstein" and began a romance. But five years later, Helena and Kenneth called it quits.

Perhaps, Helena's most notable relationship has been her marriage to director Tim Burton. The two were together for 13 years and raised two children, but in 2014, they announced their amicable breakup.

The 52-year-old actress started dating the writer Rye Dag Holmboe in 2019 when she grew tired of "grieving" her failed romance with Burton.

5. Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood

Evanna Lynch, the Irish actress who portrayed the only child of Xenophilius and Pandora Lovegood, once dated actor Robbie Jarvis who represented a young James Potter.

The actors were together for over a year until their split-up two years ago. Evanna now has a new love to show off on her Instagram account: singer and songwriter AnDel.

On the other hand, actor Matthew Lewis had a fairytale story. The actor met event planner and blogger Angela Jones during a "Wizarding World of Harry Potter" event, and it was love at first sight.

Lewis proposed to her in November 2016 Paris, and the couple tied the knot with a destination wedding in Italy in 2018.

6. Draco Malfoy and Astoria Greengrass

The enemy of Harry, Ron, and Hermoine was single until the last movie whenTom Felton fell for his onstage wife, Jade Olivia Gordon. After an almost 8-year romance, the sweet couple parted ways two years ago.

As for Jade, little is known about her love life, so she has not had any other relationships that we know of after the one with his colleague.
