Emma Watson - The 'Harry Potter' actress Emma Watson who is celebrating her 21st birthday today, has spoken about the forthcoming Royal Wedding, saying she feels sorry for Kate Middleton. Watson claims she understands the amount of 'pressure' that Prince William's bride-to-be is under.
The actress took a break from attending Browns University in Long Island after struggling to juggle studying with her acting career. Speaking to the Associated Press, Watson says she sympathises with Middleton's hectic build up to the wedding, saying, "Poor girl. That must be an incredible amount of pressure. I hope she's enjoying it. Must be intense". Middleton is set to marry Prince William at London's historic Westminster Abbey on 29th April 2011. Reports suggest that up to 2 billion people are likely to tune in for the event, which will be broadcast live on television. The couple began their relationship while studying at St Andrew's University. Watson says she hopes to return to her own degree course this summer, noting, "I just knew I was going to be beating myself up because I wasn't going to be able to be doing the best that I knew that I could at school or in my job. If I'd been getting B's or C's I would've been really upset".
Emma Watson is currently on promotional duties for the final two Harry Potter movies. 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1' is released on Dvd in the U.S. on 15th April 2011.
