![]() Our three main characters (Harry, Ron, and Hermione) go through not just the angst of trying to defeat He Who Must Not Be Named they are also trying to reign in the power of their own attraction to each other. If this were Quidditch, we’d call it a keeper.Like in any boarding school teeming with youngsters, Hogwarts is overflowing with raging hormones. Rowling doesn’t mention whether or not Harry being a Horcrux contributed to the Dursleys’ hatred however, the theory does make a lot of sense and offers a unique way of looking at the family.Įven Radcliffe thinks it’s cool. The couple also had a falling out with Harry’s parents and never made up. Rowling has written about the Dursleys’ dislike for Harry on Pottermore, calling them “reactionary, prejudiced, narrow-minded, ignorant and bigoted.” Rowling explained that Petunia’s loathing stemmed from jealousy of her sister Lily’s magical abilities, and that Vernon hated anything out of the ordinary. “Has anyone asked Jo Rowling what she thinks of that one yet? I feel like that one ― that’s definitely a good one.” “But I think that’s definitely a cool theory,” he added. “Having been there for Richard Griffiths’ (Vernon) and Fiona Shaw’s (Petunia) performances,” Radcliffe said, “I feel like it was more they just hated having this kid around.” OK, maybe “friendly family” is a stretch. Actually if you remove him from the situation, would have been quite a nice, friendly family.” It’s definitely interesting because it sort of posits a world where these people only known to be a certain way. Radcliffe continued, “Yeah, that’s definitely the first time I’ve heard that one. “Oh OK, so it affects the behavior of people around it,” he said. In an interview with Daniel Radcliffe about his new movie “ Jungle,” we brought up the theory and asked if it could explain why the Dursleys were so mean. Though Ron and Hermione spent a lot of time with Harry at Hogwarts, the Dursleys were with him constantly over a much longer period of time. Just like Slytherin’s Locket adversely affected Ron’s mood during “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” Harry may have had a similar effect on the Dursleys. ![]() Give the man a break.Īctually, the fact that Harry is somewhat of a Horcrux became the center of a popular theory a couple of years ago, and it seemed to finally explain why the Dursleys were so horrible to the wizard all this time.Īccording to the theory, the Dursleys were such turd buckets because Harry was a Horcrux and they had to live with him for years. ![]() Sure, he can be a bit moody, but he’s got a piece of the Dark Lord living inside of him. In the “ Harry Potter” universe, it’s a little befuddling why the Dursleys hate Harry so much. ![]()
