Rupert Grint Ordered to Pay £1.8 Million Tax

News summary

Rupert Grint, famed for his role as Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter series, has been ordered to pay an additional £1.8 million in taxes after losing a legal battle with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) regarding his 2011-12 tax return. The dispute centers on a £4.5 million payment he received, which he claimed should be taxed as a capital asset, while HMRC argued it should be considered income. Tribunal Judge Harriet Morgan ruled that the amount was indeed taxable as income, dismissing Grint's appeals. This follows a prior ruling in 2019 where he was also mandated to pay taxes after an investigation into the same tax year. Additionally, Grint recently won a two-year fight to develop his Hertfordshire estate into an eco-village, despite local objections. Overall, the actor has earned an estimated £24 million from his role in the franchise, underscoring the financial complexities he faces.
