By Kevin Johnson 03/07/2026

It looks like there is some serious magic back in the air for Emma Watson and Chord Overstreet!

Just three weeks after PEOPLE confirmed the pair had gone their separate ways, the Harry Potter alum and the former Glee star were spotted packing on the PDA during a sunny outing in Los Angeles this Tuesday.

The sighting has sent fans into a tailspin on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, as the duo appeared more “on” than ever. Watson, , was seen leaning in for several passionate kisses while Overstreet, , kept her close with his arm wrapped around her.

Overstreet kept it casual for the reunion in a sleeveless black tank top and matching sunglasses, while the couple enjoyed their afternoon in the California sun.

The reconciliation comes as a major surprise to followers of the couple. In May, a source told PEOPLE that while the two had been dating for several months, the relationship “was never going to be a long-term thing.” Clearly, these two had other plans!

The pair first sparked romance rumors back in March when they were photographed walking hand-in-hand during a cozy afternoon stroll.

“They met through friends,” an insider previously told PEOPLE. “They might seem like an odd match, but they actually have very similar personalities.”

This romance marks Watson’s first public relationship since her split from tech manager William “Mack” Knight last November. Despite the public nature of these new photos, Watson has long been vocal about her desire to keep her private life exactly that—private.

Speaking to Vanity Fair in , the actress explained her “no-boyfriend” talk policy.

“I can’t talk about my boyfriend in an interview and then expect people not to take paparazzi pictures of me walking around outside my home,” she said at the time. “I would hate anyone that I were with to feel like they were in any way part of a show or an act.”

While Watson prefers to avoid the “circus” of Hollywood dating, her fans are certainly cheering for this encore performance with Overstreet.

Overstreet, who was previously linked to Emma Roberts in , seems to be the perfect match for Watson’s low-key but intellectual vibe.

Whether this reunion is a fleeting summer fling or something more permanent remains to be seen, but for now, it’s clear these two aren’t ready to say goodbye just yet.

Would you like me to keep an eye out for any more sightings of the happy couple this week?
