Rupert Grint
Birthdate: Aug 24, 1988
Birthplace: Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England, UK
Rupert Alexander Lloyd Grint was born in Harlow, Essex, England, the elder son of Joanne (Parsons) and Nigel Grint, who dealt in memorabilia. The first of 5 children, Rupert has one brother and three sisters.
Rupert grew up in Hertfordshire, the English county directly to the north of London, conveniently placed for commuting to Leavesden Film Studios. Before successfully auditioning for the Harry Potter films, Rupert attended Richard Hale Secondary School in Hertford: here he took an active interest in school plays, being cast as Rumplestilskin in the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. He was also a regular attendee at weekend drama classes at Top Hat Stage School, also in Hertford.
Time at school was limited, as Rupert was needed on set for the Harry Potter films, where all of the child actors were tutored for four hours a day on set, to keep up with legal requirements. During the summer of 2004, he took his GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) exams and completed his formal education.
Personal life
Born in the Essex town of Harlow, Rupert Grint grew up in the north London community of Hertfordshire and was raised by parents Nigel and Joanne Grint. He has four younger siblings, Charlotte, Samantha, Georgina, and James. Although he was interested in performing on stage and playing in school plays, Grint was cast in the first Harry Potter movie with no previous professional acting experience. He left school at age sixteen. Grint has been in a relationship with actor Georgia Groome since 2011; the couple has one daughter, born in 2020. Grint’s height is 5’ 8 1/4”. Grint’s estimated net worth is $50 million.
