Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 was released back in 2011 and marked the conclusion of the Harry Potter series, but not all characters received their happy ending. While the main characters of the franchise — Harry, Hermione, and Ron — survived the final battle for Hogwarts and returned to normal life, many other characters met a much more tragic fate, including Fred Weasley, one of Ron's brothers. Of course, the Weasley family went through mourning and sought ways to honor Fred's memory, but the strangest of these was chosen by his twin brother George — and fans of the franchise still can't forget it.
After the events of Deathly Hallows, George married the girlfriend of his deceased brother
Fans of the Harry Potter series continue to discuss this plot twist to this day — on social media, one fan posted a message asking if he was really the only one who found George's decision more than a little strange and even awkward. Indeed, according to the books by J.K. Rowling, George not only married Angelina Johnson, who had been dating Fred before his death, but also named their child after his deceased brother. The fan who posted the message emphasized that perhaps this is what Fred would have wanted, but this plot twist still feels very ambiguous.
There were also those who stood up for George
However, the fans could not come to a unanimous decision, and a whole discussion unfolded under the post — while some were puzzled about how George could act this way towards his deceased brother, others recalled plot details that could potentially clear the hero's reputation. Some pointed out that Angelina was not officially Fred's girlfriend — they only appeared as a couple at the Yule Ball, and that doesn’t necessarily mean they had a real relationship. Others noted that in real life, those who have lost their significant other often find love again with another close person of their deceased partner, so in this situation, George and Angelina can be understood.
