Emma Watson has spoken out and clarified what it means to be "self-partnered".
In a British Vogue cover story, the 34-year-old opened up about her personal life and spoke candidly about some remarks she made in an interview back in 2019.
Speaking to Vogue back in 2019, Watson said that she was happy being single despite dating around.
She said at the time: “I never believed the whole ‘I’m happy single’ spiel. I was like: ‘This is totally spiel.’ It took me a long time, but I’m very happy [being single]. I call it being self-partnered."
Speaking with the magazine following a handful of different relationships, Watson clarified what she meant by the term "self-partnered" in 2023.
She said that being “self-partnered” isn’t “necessarily about me celebrating being single”.
Watson added: "Getting to the point when I was 30, I was realising: ‘Oh, maybe I’ve figured out some things about how to care for myself better – maybe quite well, actually.’ And taking pride in that."
Watson said that while she enjoys her single or "self-partnered" life, it's also important to have a good group around you. She claims that those around her motivate her and inspire her more.
