Rupert Grint built at home Target for his daughter Wednesday because she is ‘obsessed’ with the store

Rupert Grint’s 2-year-old daughter Wednesday cannot get enough of Target.

During Grint’s recent appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” he was asked by the talk show host what his daughter likes. Grint shared some common interests his daughter has and a more unconventional “obsession” she has with Target. 

“I mean the big one is Target. She is obsessed with Target,” he explained. “She’d choose that over going to the park, or zoo. But she loves going to different Targets and seeing how the layout is kind of slightly different.”

‘HARRY POTTER’ STAR RUPERT GRINT SAYS HE ‘STOPPED WATCHING’ THE FILMS AFTER THIRD INSTALLMENT

“Sometimes she doesn’t buy anything, she just wants to kind of browse,” The “Harry Potter” actor joked. “The toy aisle is definitely a draw, but she’s more into lip balm, to be fair.”

Grint, whose home base is the United Kingdom, shared that his daughter spent a lot of time in the United States, specifically Philadelphia where he filmed his television show, “Servant.”  

“She’s struggling a little bit with adjusting to U.K. life. She spent most of her time in America, so she’s missing some cultural things,” Grint explained.

Since there are no Targets in the U.K., Grint took it upon himself to build a mini target for his daughter, which comes equipped with gift cards, a credit card reader and a small conveyor belt for scanning. 

“I think I’ve definitely captured the essence,” Grint said of his at home target display. 

“It was one of the most difficult conversations, telling her she lives in a country that doesn’t have Target,” he said. “I’ve shown her our kind of equivalent, but it doesn’t hold up.”
