Fans wonder if Tom Felton is single or spoken for.

While Daniel Radcliffe, Rubert Grint and Emma Watson benefited from the success of Harry Potter far more than any other actors involved in bringing J. K. Rowling's beloved story to life on the big screen, some of the supporting cast also managed to take advantage of the franchise's success with great finesse. Even though Tom Felton's portrayal of Draco Malfoy didn't have the same amount of screen time as Harry, Ron, and Hermione, the young actor still became an integral part of the franchise, as his turn as the white-haired evil wizard made him a true heartthrob.

Although Felton came across as a totally self-centred jerk in the movies, in reality, the actor was always known to be extremely polite and private, making it difficult for fans to keep track of his personal life. However, it was widely known that Felton met his girlfriend, Jade Olivia Gordon, when she was an extra in one of the Harry Potter movies.

The two became so close that Gordon even played Draco's wife in the franchise's final instalment, leading fans to believe that Felton and Gordon were not far from tying the knot themselves. Indeed, the two remained together long after Harry Potter ended, continuing to hit the red carpet and even moving in together. But are they still an item?

Sadly, after eight years of dating, Felton and Gordon called it quits in 2018. While Felton did not reveal the reasons behind the split, his recent comments about how his most famous role changed how people perceived him and denied him the chance to live a normal life may hint at the real reason why he is still alone.

'Some people really struggle with the idea that I wasn't this special, popular kid. But I was walking around with dyed hair and played an evil wizard. It wasn't cool. It did me no favours with the girls,' Felton said.

But even though Felton is living on his own for the moment, he still has a great friend in Emma Watson who he has had a unique and very special relationship with for over a decade now.
