Harry Potter fans were shocked to discover franchise star Rupert Grint is in a relationship with the star of another iconic film. 

The actor, 36, who plays Ron Weasley in the films, has been in a longterm relationship with Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging star Georgia Groome since 2011. 

The couple are parents to daughters Wednesday, born May 2020, and Goldie, born April 2025. 

But despite their 14-year romance, many fans were unaware they were together.

On a recent social media post from a publication announcing the birth of their second daughter, several fans left comments expressing surprise.

They wrote: ‘Why did I not know Ron Weasley was with Georgia from Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging?!’… ‘Was just thinking the same thing, where have I been?’

‘I had no idea either, I love it!’… ‘I didn’t know this either, they go well together.’

‘Wait. He married THE Georgia’… ‘I neve knew this is who his partner is! I love Georgia, Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging?! Iconic.’ 

In late April, Rupert took to Instagram to introduce the tot, revealing the baby’s name to be Goldie G. Grint.

In a nod to the couple surprising fans with the new arrival, Rupert cheekily wrote ‘Secret Child Slightly Revealed’ in the caption, while also giving a shoutout to the doctor who delivered the baby.

Captioning his sweet post, Rupert penned: ‘Secret Child Slightly Revealed’ Introducing Goldie G. Grint. ⭐️ A 10/10 baby (so far) ‘Shout out to @alex.digesu for always delivering.’

Rupert’s remark to the medic suggests that he also delivered Rupert and Georgia’s eldest child, daughter Wednesday, whom they welcomed five years ago.

The actor’s post was met with a plethora of congratulatory messages from fans, many of whom referred to his famous character as they applauded ‘another Weasley’ being born.

Rupert spoke about Georgia briefly in a 2021 interview with Glamour, saying: ‘It’s a very natural thing — we’re just best friends. We’re kind of the same person; we think the same way.

‘That’s always made it work — that’s why it’s lasted. It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but it works and it’s great.’
