Emma Watson has been spotted with an American businessman following her split from boyfriend Brandon Green.
The Harry Potter star, 33, dated the son of one-time King of the High Street Sir Philip Green for 18 months before going their separate ways over the Christmas period.
The actress has now been enjoying a trip to Italy with Ryan Walsh as they visited Venice - a city she once spent time in with her ex-beau.
Emma is said to love someone who can "match her intelligence" and has always had "brainy" boyfriends.
“As well as Brandon, who is an executive at his dad Philip Green's company, she has been linked to tech CEOs William “Mack” Knight, Brendan Iribe and Brendan Wallace.

“They have known each other for some time and now she is single she is making sure she enjoys herself.”
Ryan is believed to work in tech and founded a consultancy firm in Los Angeles three years ago.
Since getting her degree from Brown's University after finishing the Harry Potter franchise, Emma has since set up two film production companies and directed herself in a Prada commercial.
Emma and Brandon's split reportedly happened after Christmas - following a 'serious' romance which lasted well over a year.
They had met one other's parents and also enjoyed a romantic holiday in Venice together with their loved ones.
But Emma hinted that she was single again after 'realising' things in her life were not the way they were supposed to be.
Posting on Instagram last month, Emma spoke about her love of astrology and how love and life fits into that.
"This is 33. Holy moly. Before 29 I hadn't even heard of a Saturn Return as a concept. Let's just say that now I am well acquainted," she penned.
Emma went on to explain how she had re-evaluated her life and had done 'a lot of therapy' and 'said goodbye to my Grandma and Grandpa'.

"I felt really sad and really p*ssed off about a lot of things. I learnt more about love and being a woman... It took me three years but I have finally figured out a daily practice and can actually keep it for more than a few days in a row."
According to Mail Online, Emma and Brandon ended things at the beginning of the year, and the British actress has been living her single life since.
Brandon, 30, is the son of the controversial British businessman Sir Philip Green, the man behind the retail company Arcadia Group.
