Headline: J.K. Rowling hits back at 'ignorant' Emma Watson amid trans rights row
Caption: The Harry Potter actress and her co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint publicly pledged their support for the transgender community in 2020 after the Harry Potter author expressed anti-trans views. Watson reflected on the situation on Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast last week and admitted that she still loves and treasures the writer even though she disagrees with her opinions. Rowling responded in a lengthy statement on X on Monday, claiming that Watson is participating in the "trashing of women's rights” because she "has so little experience of real life" due to her fame and fortune that she is "ignorant of how ignorant she is”.
