19 Things You Didn’t Know About Emma Watson
8. She’s French Actually!
Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson was born 15 April 1990, in Paris, France. Her parents are English lawyers Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson and she lived in Paris until she was five years old. Perhaps this is why we love her so much, because she combines the French passion, English culture and American vibe…
Emma lived in Paris until she was five. When she turned five, she had to move to England with her mother and brother after her parents got a divorce. The 24-year-old still feels a strong connection with France. She said she would love to be fluent in French and get to know the language and the country of her birth.
“I always have the same New Year’s resolution: to speak French fluently,” she explained in an interview for the UK edition of Marie Claire. “I get a huge wave of nostalgia when I come into the Gare du Nord. There’s such an emphasis on culture, art and music… And I’ll do anything for a warm baguette.”
Her English parents were living in Paris, France, at the time when they welcomed their first child, Charlotte Duerre Watson. If you really want to know her roots, Emma’s paternal family are English, Scottish, French and German. Duerre is a Bavarian last name. She springs from the family of lawyers and academics. That’s why she’s so smart.
Emma continued her life in Oxford, England, but she was always keen on learning French. She does know some, but the smart girl like her will easily learn it. We she came back to England, she was in time to go an English school and to attend the prestigious Dragon School, where she was an excellent student, who took up theater classes.
