Emma Watson’s New Romance: All About Rumored Boyfriend Gonzalo Hevia Baillères
Emma Watson, the beloved actress and activist, may have found love with someone new. As of February 2026, several Spanish outlets and a tip from DeuxMoi suggest a connection between Watson and Mexican businessman Gonzalo Hevia Baillères. Photos obtained by Quien show the pair looking cozy at the airport, and DeuxMoi’s sources claim they attended a wedding together in Mexico.
Who is Gonzalo Hevia Baillères?
Gonzalo isn’t just anyone; he hails from a multi-billion dollar dynasty and is a significant figure in the Latin American business world. He’s the founder and CEO of Lok, a technology company specializing in artificial intelligence. He also holds positions with Chazki, a tech-driven delivery company, and Coca-Cola Femsa, the company behind the iconic Mexican Coke bottles.
A Family Fortune
Gonzalo’s family wealth stems from his grandparents, Teresa Gual and Alberto Baillères, who amassed a fortune through their mining company, Industrias Penoles. The Baillères family also owns Grupo Bal and El Palacio de Hierro department stores – often described as the Mexican equivalent of Saks Fifth Avenue. This lineage makes the Baillèreses the fourth-richest family in Mexico and the tenth-richest in Latin America, with a net worth estimated between $6.65 billion and $19.7 billion according to Forbes.
A Private Life
Gonzalo maintains a remarkably low profile. Finding a publicly available photo of him is a challenge! He has a private Instagram account with just over 1,000 followers, featuring a profile picture of Takashi Murakami’s animated bear from Kanye West’s Graduation album cover.
Past Relationships & Diss Tracks
Prior to Emma Watson, Gonzalo reportedly dated Spanish-Mexican singer and actress Belinda Peregrín from late 2022 to early 2024. Interestingly, fans speculate that Belinda’s 2025 diss track, “Hereocromía,” may be about Gonzalo, referencing a wealthy “old money” ex. The lyrics, “Tú eres old money, te dicen ‘Bunny’ / Y tu palacio me lo paso por el booty,” are thought to allude to El Palacio de Hierro.
What’s the Status?
A DeuxMoi tipster reported seeing the couple at a wedding in Mexico, but also alleged that Gonzalo “doesn’t have the best reputation when it comes to how he’s treated his ex-girlfriends.” While these claims remain unconfirmed, photos surfaced on March 4th from Quien showing Emma and Gonzalo together at the airport. Neither party has officially confirmed the relationship, but fans are eagerly awaiting updates on this low-key pairing.
