Emma Watson may have swapped acting for studying at Oxford University – but her palatial new home screams far more Hollywood star than grungy student.
I hear that Emma, below, who rose to fame as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, has splashed out on a multi-million pound house in the affluent Oxford enclave of Jericho.
Emma, 35, who is reading for a DPhil – Oxford’s version of a PhD – has added a touch of character to her new abode, hanging a Snoopy flag, right, outside the nine-bedroomed mansion.
I imagine Emma, who recently broke up with fellow Oxford student Kieran Brown, will enjoy hosting raucous parties at the property, especially as I hear she has installed a sauna and Jacuzzi.
She was spotted last month on a date with a mystery man beside the river Isis at Port Meadow, Oxford, where they enjoyed a Bridesheadian pastime – al fresco painting.
