Was Emma Watson really bullied out of Brown University?
Last month, the actress announced she’d be taking a break from her studies to have time for professional commitments.
But outlets like the New York Daily News are spreading a rumor that harassment from other students may have forced Watson from school; specifically, that the Harry Potter star’s “brainy ways may have led to her classmates’ heckling.”
According to a so-called “insider” for the paper, Watson would be mocked with incessant, snide Potter references when she participated in class.
There were also reports of Watson being heckled while attending a Brown-Harvard football game and otherwise being harassed about her fame.
So did her peers’ comments actually chase Watson from college?
Not at all.
A rep for Watson tells Gossip Cop the story is completely false.
“There isn’t a grain of truth in it,” we’re told.
Watson “absolutely loved her time at Brown and made lots of great friends,” only leaving because she’s decided “to pursue a different course which sadly Brown does not offer.”
She will transfer to a new school for the fall.
