Hermione and Ron, and Harry and Ginny, had been through so much together by the time they reached the age of 17, and nobody else would really be able to understand all the traumas they had experienced.
Having faced the possibility of losing each other, I think these couples became even more aware of how lucky they were to still be together. I expect that the next generation of wizards will probably wait a bit longer before deciding to tie the knot. On a daily basis I like to channel my inner Luna Lovegood by reading Harry Potter analysis books upside down, of course while wearing my large collection of miniature food earrings.
Bill - husband of Fleur Delacour. Check out my other, less good, instructional how to deal with bullies like Harry Potter. Or my improving: what can we learn from the life of Albus Dumbledore?
How to love like Fleur Delacour. Fleur Delacour teaches us 5 ways to triumph in love Contains spoilers, please avoid until you've completed the books. The Third Task, the Goblet of fire. An excess of phlegm, the Half Blood Prince. And she's perhaps one of the most overlooked characters in the series. It doesn't help that the Triwizard Tournament didn't do a great job of showing off her best traits. Like many characters in the world of Harry Potter , there is a lot for us to learn about Fleur Delacour.
As it turns out, she's a surprisingly loyal and complex character, earning her right to become a fan favorite, and proving her worth in the Battle of Hogwarts. To help everyone learn a bit more about her, we've compiled a list of ten things everyone should know about Fleur.
Some of these facts will be known to the fans that read the novels, as a lot of her story didn't make it into the movies. And that's a shame. One of the many things that the movies failed to mention about Fleur Delacour is that she is not wholly human. While three-quarters of her blood can make that claim, she is also one-quarter something else. You see, she's part Veela. Veela are a beautiful species, known for their ability to enchant men. Being only part Veela, Fleur's abilities are significantly watered down Every character in the world of Harry Potter seems to have a wand that is unique to them.
So it's no surprise that Fleur had a wand special to her. In her case, her wand also had a direct, familial tie. As it turns out, Veela hair can be used as a core within wands, and her grandmother gave her the hair that was placed into Fleur's wand.
Veela hair makes it slightly harder to control, according to Ollivander. But it seems to do well by Fleur. We also know that Fleur's wand is considered to be of the 'inflexible' variety, again according to Ollivander. But this fits Fleur's character well when you think about it. Fleur and her fellow classmates ended up spending their final year at Hogwarts, thanks to the Triwizard Tournament.
Gabrielle also developed a crush on Harry. At her wedding, Fleur made Gabrielle one of her bridesmaids, along with Ginny Weasley Much to Ginny's dislike, as at the time she did not much like Fleur and had taken to calling her phlegm behind her back. Bill Weasley , her husband and father of her children. She was attracted to him from the start, eyeing him with visible interest from across the room while in the company of her parents. Bill had taken a desk job at the bank so that he could assist the Order of the Phoenix , and the two meet and began dating immediately.
They had been dating for a year when Bill asked Fleur to marry him, and she accepted. Although his family — at least, his mother and sister — took an initial disliking of her because of her seemingly snobbish personality, they accepted her when she showed how much she really loved Bill following his scarring at the hands of Fenrir Greyback in They were married on 1 August , , the same day that the Ministry of Magic fell to Lord Voldemort.
Although their wedding was disrupted by Death Eaters, Fleur and Bill were allowed to go free and set up home in Shell Cottage. After the events of the Second Wizarding War , Fleur bore three children; Victoire, who was named after the victory of the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore's Army during the Battle of Hogwarts , because she was born on the anniversary of the battle; Dominique and Louis.
In , it was implied that Victoire was in a relationship with Teddy Lupin. Since Fleur began to emulate her mother-in-law, it is likely she was very warm and caring towards her children and loved them dearly.
Harry Potter , her friend and future brother-in-law. Fleur treated Harry Potter patronisingly at first, partly because she felt he was too young to participate in the Triwizard Tournament, and also because she believed that he must have cheated his way in for personal glory. At one point she even referred to him as a " little boy ". However, after he rescued her sister from the Black Lake in the Second Task of the tournament, her attitude and treatment towards him grew considerably warmer and she came to respect him very much.
While Fleur stayed at The Burrow in the summer of , Harry seemed to be the only male who was unaffected by Fleur's beauty. This was possibly due to the platonic relationship that developed between them over the course of the tournament.
She once brought him a breakfast tray while he was in bed and would often kiss him on both cheeks twice as a form of greeting and farewell. Eventually, Fleur joined the Order of the Phoenix and in she put herself in great danger during the Battle of the Seven Potters , acting as one of Harry's decoys. She was also very loyal to Harry. When her wedding was gatecrashed by Death Eaters , she did not tell them that Harry had been present.
After Harry and several others came to her home at Shell Cottage the same year, Fleur tended to their wounds and generally took care of all of them. Having so many people at her home tested her patience, but she was still kind to Harry, of whom she still had a high opinion because of his efforts to save her sister. Through his marriage to Ginny Weasley, Harry became Fleur's brother-in-law and uncle to her three children. It's quite possible that Harry became close to Fleur's children and in return she became close to his.
Due to their common ground as surviving Triwizard Champions, Harry and Fleur share a unique sense of camaraderie. This camaraderie reinforced their familial bond. Harry, as a frequent guest lecturer on Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, likely gave Fleur's children a chance to learn from their esteemed uncle in a non-familial perspective.
The Weasleys ' reaction to Fleur, with the exceptions of Ron and Arthur , was initially lukewarm. They became more annoyed with Fleur when she and Bill became engaged, but tolerated her presence for his sake.
Ron always had a soft side for Fleur, he always stuck up for her. Once he asked her to go to the Yule Ball but ran away before she had a chance to answer him. However, she became his sister-in-law in and they started having a friendly relationship.
While Ron, Harry, and Hermione stayed at her house, Fleur cared about them in a mother-like way. Molly and Ginny Weasley in particular did not like Fleur, considering her snooty and snobbish. Molly was irked by Fleur's criticism of her household and her favourite singer, Celestina Warbeck , and Ginny called her " Phlegm ", due to her throaty, French accent, and made fun of her behind her back.
However, when Fleur did not break off their engagement following Bill's injuries, the Weasleys saw how deeply she loved Bill, and became much more accepting of her. Molly convinced her Aunt Muriel to lend Fleur her tiara for the wedding, and Ginny served as one of Fleur's bridesmaids. Hermione Granger , her future sister-in-law. Hermione Granger met Fleur during the Triwizard Tournament.
She almost immediately grew to dislike her, as the beautiful French witch had a tendency to complain frequently and loudly about most aspects of Hogwarts. Fleur often compared Hogwarts unfavourably with her own school. When Hermione met Fleur again at The Burrow, she found the latter to be arrogant and self-obsessed. This opinion shared by Ginny and Molly Weasley. The fact that Ron had a very obvious crush on Fleur also didn't do much to improve her standing in Hermione's eyes. However, Hermione saw Fleur in a much different light after Bill was attacked by Fenrir Greyback , and Fleur made it clear that Bill's now heavily scarred appearance didn't change her feelings for him in the slightest.
Fleur later risked her life along with Hermione to act as one of Harry's decoys in She also tended the injuries sustained by the others who had been detained there, and generally fussed over all of them in a motherly fashion. The two finally fought alongside one another during the Battle of Hogwarts , and became sisters-in-law through Fleur's marriage to Bill, and Hermione's marriage to Ron. Fleur also had many nieces and nephews, through the Weasley family.
It is likely that Fleur was close with all of them. It's unknown if she eventually had any nieces or nephews through her sister Gabrielle. Olympe Maxime was the headmistress of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic during Fleur's time at the school.
Madam Maxime was indignant at the inclusion of Harry Potter in the Triwizard Tournament, and supported Fleur's efforts to win completely; when Harry saw Maxime when Hagrid showed him the First Task's dragons , he had no doubts that Maxime would have told Fleur all about them.
Fleur presumably remained in close contact with her headmistress, as she invited her to the wedding.
