"Ron is married to Hermione Granger and they’re now the Granger-Weasleys. Our magnificent daughter Rose Granger-Weasley is about to start at Hogwarts, which is obviously a big day for everyone."

"She was born to wizards and knows her place in the world. Cherrelle plays her perfectly: bossy but deeply loveable," she said.
