How Did Draco Handle The Loss Of His Wife Astoria? Did She Really Die? 

Draco was definitely a better father than Lucius.

I hated they deleted that scene where after he saw harry lives, he shouted "Potter!" Then threw him a wand. People just remembered him and his family walking away saving themselves.

Draco reminds me a bit of James Potter; not the nicest guy when he was young but grew into a good man

"Draco met Astoria in the fifth year" Drarry,drapple or dramione fans:that not right

A bit ironic how Narcisa and Lucius didn’t want their family line to end and yet they only had one heir.

Poor Draco, after turning his whole life around, he still has karma coming for him, god just let the man finally have a happy life.

I hate how people hate Draco so much. He became what he became because of his parents. If you think it’s so easy to say no to his parents, it’s not. He was forced to do many things, like kill Dumbledore. I feel like he wasn’t given enough time in the movies to redeem himself, and perhaps that’s why people hate him so much..

I named my daughter after Draco's wife. Astoria Lilith Rose I used to read the Harry potter books when I was pregnant and every time she would sit so still in my stomach like she was listening. So the character Astoria holds a special place in my heart. 💙

This makes me wish we had actually seen more of Draco in the books. His life is a very interesting story.

When you think that Astoria chose to give Draco a child, so he wouldn't be alone and has someone to remember her by. 😦😢😭

Draco would definitely be a better dad than Lucius.

The development of Draco’s character is one of my favourites ⚡️

When James Potter married Lily he changed, when Draco Married Astoria he also changed, Surely love can really change even the darkest hearts Edit: Sorry I thought Astoria was muggle born

His wife has dark hair and his is platinum blonde how did he manage to still produce platinum blonde son? 🤔 damn that Malfoy gene is strong.

You know it's good writing when you go from hating a character to loving one, and I believe that one of the greatest examples is Draco from HP. I really couldn't help but feel so sad and sorrowful for him when Astoria died, and I really think he was such a better father to Scorpius then Lucius ever was to Draco. :)

I absolutely love Astoria...even though we haven't 'met' her yet. She helped Draco become the person he hid underneath! And how adorable and sweet Scorpius is, is what Draco would have been like if Draco was raised right!

he really didn’t get the ending he deserved in the movies.

I always felt bad for Draco, he never was a truly evil person but was just projecting what his father wanted😭

Draco will never fully get over Astoria’s death, just like George will never fully get over Fred’s. I can imagine them talking each other through them.

In Cursed Child, when Scorpius was with Snape and the dementors in the alternative time line, he said that he could hear his mother dying because of the dementors, which means that he remembered watching/hearing his mother die. Astoria is dead.

It’s kinds sad that everyone ships Draco with other characters but not with his wife

In the heart of all Potter fans the cursed child is not canon.

I honestly feel so bad for Draco

I've never seen him humanized like this. In real life Daniel Radcliff has been saying literally since day one that Tom Felton is a wonderful person but the character is like the Darth Vader of Hogwarts.

I have thought about Draco a lot when the last movie came out, and we see Draco with his wife and son. It had to be hard for Draco to grow up in a family like his. Caught in a struggle of what's right and wrong. We all have a love for our parents, when young. They can't do anything wrong in our eyes. They love us, feed us take care of us when we are sick. It is only as we grow do we start to question the actions and words they may say. I could see Draco coming to reasoning this out as he grew. Not sure where to turn to when he needed the most help. He had distance himself from his friends and teachers, including Snape. For at that time he did not know Snape's role with Dumbledore. If he was a bit older he might have had the confidence in himself to leave his family when he needed too. But as a Father and a Husband, he's going to do it right. Stronger than his own Father could ever be, and as loving as his Mother. But you never know, Lucius Malfoy could be a better Grandfather, than a Father. Without the stress, and weight of past troubles, like some parent have. They come to terms and strive to become better. I could so see Lucius taking his little Grandson to the park, holding his little hand along the way, and then push him on the swing by using his wand, all under the watchful eye of Draco, smiling, while he hears his son call out, "Higher Papa, Higher!"

The theory about Astoria not technically dying and staying in animal form with Draco and Scorpius is much sadder to me than her just dying omg

Now we just change that line to fit my standards *"Now when we think of Draco Malfoy, were reminded of that handsome, hot, blonde hunk that stole all our hearts"*

I think that deep down, Draco was never evil. In each book and movie, there was just something about him... I could tell his rudeness and bullying was all just an inflated act to cover up his insecurities inflicted upon him by his family and upbringing. Even from the first book Draco wanted to have fun, he wanted to make friends, he had a soft heart. He was just like other kids. Think of him going through the forbidden Forrest and getting scared, freaking out when buckbeak cut him, and his reaction when Nagini killed his teacher.... he definitely had a heart and human emotions. He's sensitive, and often, sensitive people are the most deeply loving of their close friends/family, showing why he followed his father, and why he had it in him to love his wife so much. Draco is noble hearted, and in the end he proves to us that he always knew what's right and wrong.

Draco is an awesome character and his life was so sad

1st ... I would think that after the fall of Voldemort and the ruin of Lucius influence in the wizarding world, Draco, who has had a change of heart about blood purity, would seek solace with his aunt Andromeda, since his mother Narcissa would still stand by Lucius, until his deatheater activities gets him sent to Askaban. Its during this time that Draco full embraces his attraction to Astoria. And it is she who pursuades Draco to rebuild his relationship with his mother, because she knows of her impending doom due to her blood curse. Yet her love for Draco compells her to agree to marry him, then bear him a son, Scorpius. When Draco learns of Astoria's condition, he spares no expense, friendships, or influence to search for a cure for her. Even begging Hermoine, Luna, and Neville for help. He even attends a Muggle University to learn medicine in his quest for a cure for Astoria. But in the last months, as Astoria's condition approaches its final stage, she begs Draco to be there for his son, as she will always be there; Even if in a beast form forever.

Draco is a better father than Lucius. He really is. Lucius used to scold him for every little thing. But Draco was very loving towards Scorpius

Astoria and Scorpius are the only parts of the Cursed Child that I like.

Why must you be so cruel? Of course mummy wasn't related to nagini, and of course daddy is a better father than lucius. :(

I never really liked Draco during the series due to his constant bullying, but there was more to him than we thought. He has a vulnerable side after all. I guess he definitely didn't want Scorpius to grow up like he did and wanted Scorpius to be better than him. Still the loss of Astoria must really hurt them both. I think it would be a touching scene if Astoria visits Scorpius in his dreams to comfort him saying "Upsetting you and your dad was the worst part of my passing away. You know what made it ok though? Knowing that you have each other. As long as you were by his side. A little piece of me always would be too"

Draco was not really a villain , but more of a nuisance, but I absolutely love how he changed.

See? Harry Potter movie and books may have ended but the it's still alive and still going on. Muggles would never understand 😏

If you look at the meaning of the name Astoria, it means like a hawk, and you know how much JK Rowling likes playing with words!

i love draco so much, he really tried being the best dad he could be

He fell in love with Hermione. The end. Oh wait that's fanfiction. Lol

im crying why does everything always happen to Draco i just want him to be happy

He had the best character development, deserved so much better.

I've thought about it. Just from her description about how frail and sickly she was.. she doesn't seem to be a maledictus. I do love the theory. But it just seems like its two different things. Like to have the greengrass curse, I imagined her like glass almost, very small, very easy to break bones, and a not so great immune system. Nagini for the most part seems to be healthy and vibrant. But turns into a snake.

I personally don't consider Cursed Child canon, no matter what Rowling may say, so I don't think Astoria died.

JK does like to tie things together over time.

Ooh new video! Dean please do 'the life of Madame Maxime' we don't know anything about her & i searched for it, no-one else has done it

The only thing wrong with the maladictus theory is that Scorpeus would've told Albus such a big thing, at least eventually.

Fun Fact : Actually the name Astoria is a different bit version of the name Asteria , Rowling even said her name was Asteria in the early times . Asteria means goddess of the stars in Greek mythology , Scorpius and Draco are constellations , that make sense . Greengrass Family may also be a Greek Origin pure-blooe family names of all known members of this family come from Greek Mythology like Daphne , Astoria/Asteria and Scorpius “Hyperion” .

The drawing of Pansy Parkinson is sooooo beautiful

Scorpius malfoy is actually my favourite character of the cursed child. Even tough the story wasted so much potential

This girl doesn’t realize how many girls are jealous of her 😔

*sigh* there's always that (in Harry potters case a many) character in a story that can never get a break. Great video dude!!!👍🏾😁

Yes, Draco would have been a better father to Scorpius than Lucius to him. I also think that. And I apologise for the unoriginal wording. Who knows, maybe you're simply my biggest role model.

Great video as always, Dean! Though it seems pretty unlikely to me that Nagini and Astoria are related. Just because they both suffer from a blood curse, doesn't mean it HAS to be the maledictus curse in either case. Draco giving up his pure-blood beliefs means that he cares for his son and is empathetic towards Scorpius, much more than Lucius was towards Draco.

James & Draco are so very similar in my eyes. Harry & Snape are similar. All have very similar events, loved & loss in their lives. I love the background stories in these books. JK really out did her self w these books. I could read them over m over. Such sadness yet so much love too

It's so sadly that no one is talking about Astoria.She could be a very good carracter in the movie but we seen her only 1 or 2 times in movies and she was just killed with no good reason

I love your videos, this one explains a lot about Draco dealing with his loss

Bless Draco, he’s a great character and could easily become my favorite Harry Potter character because of his strong development

Your vids got me back into Harry Potter theories so now at school I discuss them with my friends

I just saw cursed child again and i have to say Draco is thoroughly redeemed. His story was just heart breaking

Love this video. It tells the story with real compassion.

I feel so bad for draco, he was so misunderstood and lonely😞

Draco defiantly would be a great father, he has grown up so much and witnessed so much he wouldn't want his own son to go through what he did and Astoria helped him see that.

In the Cursed Child, Scorpius asked Albus to come to the funeral

Admirable video, didn't know about Astoria, thank you!

Your theory about Astoria feels right. I can totally see this as being true. Maybe Rowling will focus on that story in the future.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!❤

Lately, I’ve really been obsessed with Draco Malfoy! I actually met Tom Felton almost two weekends ago at a golf course near my house! He was very nice! I don’t have a photo sadly 😔 But I did shake his hand and introduced myself. Wish I could rewind back. I’ll forever carry the memory with me. ❤️

Great vid Dean. You really help me. Thank you!

Great job! Another amazing video!

Love your vids keep up the good work

Another Great video

J.K Rowling really have Draco the saddest life

I really hope they publish story about them, it will be cool to read

Good video Dean😃

Draco would of been a better father than Lucius. I don't think that Astoria was a maledictus but that she died from another blood curse. If a cure was found he would probably use his time turner to go back in time to give it to her. The maledictus curse may have originated with a female werewolf to allow her to be able to carry a child to term with the consequence of the child permanently becoming an animal without using a surrogate.

Hi love the channel keep up the good work

Love your videos!!

Draco is an amazing father I can just feel it

Great vid as always

I think it could've been just been poor heath in general in Astoria's case. As for Draco rasing Scorpious, he would be a much better father than Lucius for sure.

Those who have read hp and the cursed child we will know that Draco wasn’t a bad person as he grew older he was a nice person trying to protect his son from harm

Draco has became a better person, thanks Harry and his wife helped this transformation. At the same time, I supposed that the idea of your child is the best friend of your school bully‘s son is also hard.

great video man

Great video. I did not like Draco while I was reading the books, but I began to appreciate his redemption arc later.

I feel so bad for Draco, He deserved much better, but then he did get a good life in the end :)

Yes!!! Early again!!! ❤️❤️

This makes me happy good job

I had been waiting for this so long!

I was wondering if he would bring up the blood curse that Astoria had and wonder if it was the same kind of blood curse that the maledictus has in the crimes of Grindelwald I believe that the blood curse Astoria has and the blood curse the maledictus has is two different types of blood curses This is because both blood curses are described differently A maledictus is described as a person that is cursed to ultimately permanently take the form of an animal and is only passed from MOTHER TO DAUGHTER they wouldn't mention that for no reason A blood malediction is not specified to only be passed from mother to daughter and in astoria's case it is said that it had reappeared after being dormant for several Generations and her sister didn't get it I don't think a maledictus can birth one daughter that is a maledictus and another daughter that isn't Don't quote me on this part at all but for some reason I'm thinking that Astoria's blood malediction restrict her physical abilities like maybe she's turning to Stone or something kind of like fibroplasia (it turns damaged tissue or muscle or both to bone) I have no idea where I got this idea from I even went back and tried to reread the cursed child I wasn't able to do that so idk If someone could tell me I would greatly appreciate it

Now that we know of this blood curse how is it possible that the characters would pass it down? I don’t think Nagini would have wanted someone else to have it. I believe she was turned evil by Voldemort who saw how desperate she was. So i find it hard to believe she would have had a family. Unless it was an accident. It was the 1920s and she was in a circus. You never know what can happen.

Awesome video!

Man that’s an interesting turn from what I knew before. And quite one theory I’d be actually welcoming to see. I’m feeling investigating pull towards the whole blood curse thing. Since Nagini it’s become quite fascinating. And growing up with only what was written (and translated) in seven books wasn’t what gave me as much as when Fantastic Beasts joined. I think it could be possible for Nagini and Astoria share same bloodline and it would be nonetheless fascinating. And if Astoria is alive and just in animal form it’s not as sad as her being dead. Because then both Draco and Scorpius still have her accessible and still there I’m just binging all these videos because I love how much one can dig out from all the available media formats about particular topic. That’s what I call investigation, dedication and inspiration. Keep up the great work 👍

as much as i love drarry, the thought of draco crying at the loss of his wife makes me tear up.

Hey love the video

Great video

another great video😚

I mean, you've seen my video, so you know my thoughts on Astoria's "death." I did have the thought that maybe there's a possible relation from Nagini to Astoria, but I couldn't find enough information on the Greengrass family to make any connection. If this relationship with Credence goes anywhere, it's plausible that the Lestranges and Greengrasses could mix somewhere before Astoria's born. It's possible. I'm leaning towards that being unlikely, though.

I’ve been thinking about Draco a lot recently, the fact that he lost his wife, his son Scorpious, and other things. I’ve finally been thinking about how many things that he had been through. I don’t think Draco was too happy about his parents outrageous behaviour. I After Astoria’s death, I think Narcissa finally realised that family is more important than blood purity. I think Lucius didn’t care for a long time.... I also feel sorry for Astoria because she had to go through being a Maladictus (Maybe and I don’t know how to spell it) I think transforming into a Maladictus is just as painful as turning into a werewolf...

Just to mention, Draco was a better father even more than Harry. And Scorpious, my god, he's such innocent and adorable boy with nothing but a pure soul.

The background music make me cry from inside 😭😢
