The author has rebuffed conciliatory remarks made by the Harry Potter actor, saying Watson has ‘enthusiastically participated’ in the ‘trashing of women’s rights’
Harry Potter author JK Rowling has responded to Emma Watson’s recent remarks about their rift over transgender rights, saying the actor is “ignorant of how ignorant she is”.
Rowling’s post comes after a podcast interview with Watson, in which the latter said: “I really don’t believe that … holding the love and support and views that I have, mean[s] that I can’t and don’t treasure Jo and the person that I had personal experiences with.”
