“I felt really uncomfortable, even before my relationship ended,” Watson said. “I went on a silent retreat, because I really wanted to figure out how to be at home with myself.”

“The boyfriends or partners I’ve had have generally made me feel really cherished,” the 25-year-old explained. “They’ve built me up. I certainly haven’t found that with doing all that I do or being all that I am, that I’ve struggled in my love life.”

Watson, who stars in the upcoming American live-action romantic musical fantasy film Beauty and the Beast, also shared on her experiences as a child actor adn how she began her successful career.

“It’s something I’ve really wrestled with. I’ve gone back and I’ve quizzed my parents,” Watson recalled. “When I was younger, I just did it. I just acted. It was just there. So now when I receive recognition for my acting, I feel incredibly uncomfortable. I tend to turn in on myself. I feel like an imposter… It was just something I did.”
