Emma Watson's Barbados Bikini Photos Deemed 'Really Intrusive'

Emma Watson had fans on her side as photos of her luxurious Caribbean getaway went viral in 2021. Escaping winter that December, the Harry Potter actress jetted out to Barbados for some fun in the sun, with photos showing her stunning in a dark red bikini on the island's beaches. Letting loose as she topped up her tan, Emma sizzled as she highlighted her slender figure in her stylish two-piece, but not everyone was a fan of the photos. Amid various other remarks, users seeing The Daily Mail-published shots were angered by the paparazzi presence, with more than one user calling the whole thing "intrusive."

Scroll for the photo. Strolling confidently across golden sands and getting her ankles wet in shallow waters, Emma turned heads in a chic bikini with a strapless bandeau top and back knot detail. Highlighting her slim arms and shoulders while flashing her abs, the 34-year-old matched the bow detailing from her top to one on her full briefs, giving the camera a view of her peachy rear and toned legs.

Shot relatively far out as she wore shades and her hair in an unfussy bob, Emma was even photographed getting her heart rate up, with some images showing her breaking into a shorefront jog. The Prada Beauty ambassador, then aged 31, was out on the island with friends. She mingled with her pals during a luxurious boat outing, although with a no-makeup finish and her hair unstyled, she wasn't sending out diva vibes. Following a dip in the ocean, the actress was seen clutching a large towel and checking her phone as she returned to land.

When a user seeing the photos replied: "Really intrusive," over 2,000 fans agreed. "Regardless of what you feel about her or her politics this is so intrusive. This is a long-distance lens. Something out of you on Netflix," another replied.

By August 2020, Emma Watson was vacationing in swanky Positano, Italy, a destination adored by stars including Jennifer Lopez and Kourtney Kardashian. Injecting major Barbiecore vibes into her look, the star went skintight in a tube top bikini in hot pink, rocking neon shades as she stunned in the sun. Here, she enjoyed a rocky lido setting while once again vacationing with friends.

Emma Watson celebrated her birthday this year with the above Instagram photo.
