Social Media Roundup: All the Emotions

by Sarah Wylde · April 18, 2021

Welcome back to all you wonderful Muggles, witches, and wizards. It is once again time to see what some of the Wizarding World stars have been up to in the latest edition of MuggleNet’s Social Media Roundup! During the past two weeks, there have been many emotional events that have affected the Wizarding World stars, such as a pregnancy announcement, birthday wishes, joyful pictures of their pets, and the heartbreaking tributes to Helen McCrory.

Helen McCrory (Narcissa Malfoy in the Harry Potter series) passed away at the age of 52 from cancer, which she had been privately battling. Her husband, Damian Lewis, announced her passing on April 16, saying, “She died as she lived. Fearlessly.” She will be missed. You can read the Wizarding World cast and crew members remembering Helen McCrory here.

On an episode of their podcast, Normal Not Normal, James (Fred Weasley) and Oliver Phelps (George Weasley) answered questions from the listeners and interviewed each other.

 

This week on #NormalNotNormal @OliverPhelps and I answer your questions. Not everyday I explain why its best not to wear novelty underwear at an airport… Audio Podcast out now and YouTube out Sunday 6pm BST. pic.twitter.com/jJqYcq7CY3

Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) also shared some facts fans may not know about her, including that she has a book coming out next year!

Also seeing double was Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), who took a photo of someone watching one of his movies during a flight.

 

Strange to look over and see this during the flight. Might be stranger if he sees me back when we get off the plane. pic.twitter.com/A1vRLEsJzL

Sharing a throwback photo, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) wished his Harry Potter costar Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) a happy birthday! We hope it was a great one!
