    Rupert a Confirmed Case of Swine Flu (but has now recovered!)

    Firstly our apologies for the tardyness of this post, we're experiencing (many!) technical difficulties with our news system at present.

    Rupert's publicist has announced today via the BBC that he is currently recovering from a "mild bout" of swine flu.

    While he took a few days off filming the final Harry Potter films, Rupert is doing better now and has been given clearance to attend the premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in London on Tuesday as well as continue with the rest of filming for Deathly Hallows and promotion for the sixth film.

    Quotage:
    Grint's doctor had confirmed the 20-year-old actor had recovered and was no longer contagious or at risk of infecting others.

    "Other scenes were shot in his absence which did not require his involvement and thus filming was not disrupted," she added.

    We are so glad to hear he's feeling better and continue to wish him a speedy recovery; get well soon Rupert!

      My favourite actor from the Potter films. Thank goodness it's only a mild case. Gave me a bit of a start there for a moment.
