Andrew Garfield has nothing but love and support for his former flame Emma Stone. The Hacksaw Ridge star opened up about his post-split relationship with the Golden Globe winner during an interview with Vanity Fair’s Little Gold Men podcast.

While he might no longer be the 28-year-old's boyfriend, he admitted that he is her "biggest fan as an artist."

And it’s also been wonderful to have that kind of support for each other. It’s nothing but a beautiful thing."
Andrew showed his support for the actress on Sundaynight at the 74th annual Golden Globes, where Emma took home the award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for La La Land. The Amazing Spider-Man star was seen giving his ex-love a standing ovation.

At the Golden Globe, he said, "I was overwhelmed that I had such sincere, authentic Hollywood friends. Which I don'tthink is a common occurrence. I had about seven or eight real, true anchors inthat room and in the parties following. Emma of course is one, Claire Foyis another, Laura Dern. Eddie Redmayne, Jonah Hill . . . these arepeople that I actually love in a real, sincere way, and I believe they love meback. I was just struck with this deep gratitude."
