The pair bonded over their mutual love for acting and have shared they are both “incredibly supportive of the other person’s career.”
They’ve since kept their relationship relatively private, but Harry Potter star Daniel, 33, has discussed his love for girlfriend Erin in the past.
Evidently smitten, Daniel opened up in an interview about the first time they met and called Erin his “best friend.”
He said: “It’ll be a hell of a story to tell our kids one day because of what our characters do with each other.
“Our characters are meeting and flirting with each other, so there is this kind of sweet record of us just meeting for the first time and flirting.”
In the film, they have a few romantic scenes together, including a sex scene.
In another interview, Radcliffe confessed he was immediately attracted to Erin, saying he didn’t need to act in their scenes.
“There’s a moment when she makes me laugh, and I’m laughing as me and not as my character.
“She was incredibly funny and smart. I knew I was in trouble.”

Throughout their long-term relationship, there have been numerous rumours that they were engaged or even married, which the couple have denied.
But Daniel has made it clear that Erin is the “love of his life” and continued to say: “I think that’s the kind of relationship I always aspire to have with someone I’m in a relationship with.
“You want that person to be your best friend. In the case of Erin, we definitely are.”
Before his relationship with partner Erin began, Daniel had a string of short-lived romances.
They included Irish actress Laura O’Toole, Alana Dawes, British socialite Olive Uniacke, and production assistant Rosie Coker, who he dated from 2010 to October 2012.
While Daniel roared to fame on Harry Potter, Erin has also appeared in numerous successful TV shows and movies.
She played the part of Crystal Leblanc in the 2021 series Moonshine, and she’s perhaps best known for her role as Cindy in the TV series Good Girls Revolt, as well as her recurring role as Mary in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
She has also appeared in the the Beach Boys biopic film Love & Mercy (2014), the American rom-com Beside Still Waters (2013), and Oscar-nominated Still Alice (2014).
Aside from acting, one of Darke’s biggest passions is sports, with boyfriend Daniel Radcliffe mentioning in an interview that she’s a Detroit Lions fan.
And the pair are excited about becoming parents, with a source telling The Sun: “Daniel is so excited to be a dad. His relationship with Erin is really special and everyone thinks they will be amazing parents.
“They have kept it pretty quite up until now but she can’t hide her bump anymore.”
After their exciting news was revealed, the pair were seen strolling along in New York City engaged in conversation.
