Leo Robinton Is Allegedly Emma Watson’s Former Boyfriend She Was Rumored to Be Engaged To

Leo Robinton was Emma Watson's boyfriend in 2019, to whom she was allegedly engaged. However, it is unsure if the actress and the businessman are still romantically involved.

Since starring in the "Harry Potter" film franchise, Emma Watson's personal life has become of public interest. As she grew older, the actress became the subject of relationship rumors.

Several men have been paired with the British star due to prying eyes and immediate speculation about Watson's love life.

"[Being famous is] difficult on my dating life because anyone I get photographed with is automatically my boyfriend," Watson said. "So, it just makes it look as if I've had 6,000 boyfriends."

Some of the men Watson had been with in the past include Francis Boulle, Will Adamowicz, Matthew Janney, and William Knight. She was also rumored to have dated Prince Harry in 2015, but according to an insider, they were nothing more than friends.

In 2021, Watson's agent claimed that she had gone "dormant" in the entertainment industry, which many believe was a choice to spend more time with her rumored fiance, Leo Robinton.

Who Is Leo Robinton?

Born Leo Alexander, Robinton is a Los Angeles businessman who previously held the Vice President of business development role at Agrios, a Vancouver-based company. In 2019, he left the cannabis-specializing business and made the next steps in his career.

Beyond his professional life, Robinton is one-half of twins, with his brother being Archer. He also has another older brother, Charlie, and two sisters, Lily and Daisy.

According to the Sun, Daisy shared her pride in her brother joining her in a women's march to support women's rights. Besides the few posts, his sister shared, not much is known about him.

Robinton enjoyed his privacy and made all his social media accounts private after going public with his relationship with Watson.

When Did Emma Watson and Leo Robinton Start Dating?

Watson and Robinton sparked relationship rumors in October 2019 when they were spotted locking lips in London. However, it wasn't until 2020 that he was identified. "Emma and Leo did everything in their power to keep their relationship private," an insider claimed.

In August 2022, a new love interest was speculated to be in Watson's life. While in Venice, Italy, the actress was photographed holding hands with British fashion tycoon and billionaire Philip Green's son, Brandon Green.

More eyes were on the child star, who split her time between New York and London after being seen kissing. Robinton immediately pulled himself out of social media platforms to protect their private romance. The duo reportedly met before Robinton left his job at Agrios. The source added:

"They went for a meal together back in December at The Ivy restaurant in St. John's Wood not long after Emma and Leo first met."

Their relationship was already serious at that time as the "Perks of Being a Wallflower" star had reportedly introduced Robinton to her parents, Chris and Jacqueline.

Is Emma Watson Engaged to Leo Robinton?

Watson sparked engagement rumors in 2021 when she was spotted with a silver band on her ring finger. A source claimed that she was "settling down with Leo. They're laying low. Maybe she wants a family."

The hearsay about an alleged engagement eventually reached the Hollywood actress until she shut them down through a social media statement. She wrote on Twitter:

"Dear Fans, Rumours about whether I'm engaged or not, or whether my career is 'dormant or not' are ways to create clicks each time they are revealed to be true or untrue."

She added, "If I have news - I promise I'll share it with you." Watson claimed that she was spending the pandemic the same way any other person would – with household activities such as baking, caring for her family, and staying safe.

Watson's response to the gossip did not mean her relationship with Robinton was ending. An insider revealed that she is in it for the long term but does not want to make hasty decisions and rush the engagement.

"She was a little annoyed when people started gossiping about an engagement being in the works, but that was really just a privacy thing," the source added. Nevertheless, wedding bells may be near for the couple, whose friends anticipate them to cement their relationship in the future.

Watson's manager later denied that the actress was leaving her career for Robinton. "Emma's social media accounts are dormant, but her career isn't," the "Beauty and the Beast" star's manager said.

In August 2022, a new love interest was speculated to be in Watson's life. While in Venice, Italy, the actress was photographed holding hands with British fashion tycoon and billionaire Philip Green's son, Brandon Green.

Brandon's father is a businessman who first began his venture by importing jeans from Asia. With his hard work and dedication, Philip became the Arcadia Group chairman, with subsidiaries such as Topshop, Miss Selfridge, Warehouse, Topman, Dorothy Perkins, and more.

Brandon reportedly had his education at the International School in Monaco. He also had first-hand experience in watching his father during events and gatherings. In 2014, he made it to the list of Top Ten Single Billionaires.

Brandon may not be part of the list for long if the rumors about his relationship with Watson are true. Only time will tell if the duo is ready to come forward with their truth.
