In case you missed it, Harry Potter fans around the world have been in mourning these past few days after news of their Hermoine aka actress Emma Watson retiring from acting surfaced. It all started when the LA based English updated her social media pages stating that they were 'not active'. 

While it is normal for any celebrity to take a break from social media, explicitly stating it came across as an announcement of some sort and her publicist added fuel to the fire by confirming that Emma has not taken up any new movies. 

As #EmmaWatson trended across social media all over the world, Jason Weinberg, Emma’s manager at Untitled Entertainment came forward and stated, “Emma’s social media accounts are dormant but her career isn’t.”

Nevertheless, it sure seems like Emma will be taking a step back from the spotlight for a while and here's how her fans have reacted to it:

What a rollercoaster of feelings I went through today-first #EmmaWatson retired and then within hours she came out of retirement-fair to say we all had a bit of a close shave there!

Whew! She's too good an actress to retire completely forever. ❤ But if she's tired and needs a break for a while I support her 100%. #EmmaWatson https://t.co/ZsPV1JrSj3
