Harry Potter star Emma Watson has been stalked at school by an obsessed fan, it has been reported.

The Sun says police were called after a man approached the 16-year-old, who plays the boy wizard’s pal Hermione Granger.

A source told the paper: “The man actually gatecrashed her school. She was very alarmed and worried.”

The fan, in his 20s, was questioned and then warned off by detectives. He is said to be “an admirer who was over-zealous.”

He had managed to get into some of the open lectures she attends and reportedly began talking to her about the Potter films.

While police investigated, the school and Emma’s parents took action to make sure she was protected and a minder was hired to look after her.

The actress is in her first year of A-Levels after a string of GCSE passes.
