We’ve all taken to Facebook for help before, with the platform being a great place to contact all of our friends at once and get the word out.

When you’re a celebrity however, it’s a whole lot more effective, as proven by Emma Watson just this week.

Emma took to her public Facebook page on Tuesday to ask her legion of fans (a whopping 35 million) for help finding a lost item.

The actress explained how she lost a sentimental ring while in a London spa, describing it as ‘[her] most meaningful and special possession’ and offering a reward for any information.

‘On Sunday afternoon I went for a treatment at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Spa in Hyde Park, London,’ the 27-year old explained. ‘Before my appointment I removed 3 silver rings from my fingers and put them in the safe inside the locker. When I left, I forgot to take my rings from the safe.’

She continued: ‘When I got home I realised the rings were not on my hands and I called the spa, but at this time the spa was closed. Security checked the safe and said there was nothing in it but that the spa would be open again in the morning and they could speak to them then and see if they had them or if anyone had handed them in.’

‘As of now they are missing. Were these just any rings I could accept this, but one of them was a gift from my Mum. She bought it the day after I was born and wore it for 18 years, never taking it off, and then gave it to me for my 18th birthday. I wear this ring everyday, it is my most meaningful and special possession.’

She concluded: ‘If anyone was at the Mandarin Oriental Spa on Sunday from 3pm onwards and saw the rings or accidentally picked them up or knows anything about them, I cannot express how much it would mean if they came back to me - no questions asked. If you have seen them or have any information please email: findthering@outlook.com.’
