Legendary Harry Potter author JK Rowling regrets matchmaking Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. (What’s that sound? It’s millions of Harry Potter fans changing the plots of their erotic fan fiction).
The 46-year-old revealed that she made a mistake pairing them up, and wishes she’d done something drastically different.
Wait for it. Wait for it.
JK wishes Hermione had ended up with Harry, not Ron.
“I wrote the Hermione/Ron relationship as a form of wish fulfillment,” she said. “That’s how it was conceived, really. For reasons that have very little to do with literature and far more to do with me clinging to the plot as I first imagined it, Hermione ended up with Ron.”
She knows how her fans will be effected by the change in plan more than six years after the final book was released: “I’m sorry, I can hear the rage and fury it might cause some fans, but if I’m absolutely honest, distance has given me perspective on that. It was a choice I made for very personal reasons, not for reasons of credibility.”

Come on Mamamia, employ a proof-reader!
I always liked the fact that the heroine (Hermione) got with the side-kick rather than the hero. Made for something a bit different. I'm disappointed that she is now regretting that, as I though it was a clever bit of writing.
It was also great how Harry ended up with the little sister of his best mate. Ginny'd had a crush on him since she was a little girl.
Same here,
'cause everyone would expect Hermione and Harry to end up together so the bit that says that Harry and Ginny ended up together sort of makes the last chapter of the book exiting rather then "oh i guessed that!"
