JK Rowling has revealed Emma Watson sent her a one-line note saying 'I'm sorry for what you're going through' while the author was being hounded by death threats over her stance on trans rights.
Ms Rowling then focused her fire on Ms Watson by suggesting her views on trans rights were due to her lack of experience of 'real life'.
Ms Rowling insisted she did not expect Ms Watson, Mr Radcliffe or Mr Grint to agree with her on everything and they 'have every right to embrace gender identity ideology'.
In by far her most personal criticism yet, Ms Rowling suggested the actress had been blinded by wealth and privilege.
Over the weekend, Ms Rowling shared a parody video where a woman posing as Ms Watson shared a 'satirical take on her words towards Rowling'.
