These are some facts that J.K.Rowling let slip in numerous interviews. Facts that tell us what all happened nineteen years later, with our three heroes, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine and other wonderful characters,

~ Azkaban no longer uses Dementors as guardians.

~George Weasley married Angelina Johnson and had 2 children named Fred and Roxanne. 

~Harry made sure that the Wizarding world knew that Snape was a hero and on Dumbledore’s side.

~Viktor Krum fell in love with a woman back home in Bulgaria.

~ The Quibbler is back to publishing articles about the lunatic fringe & is appreciated for its unintentional humour.

~Members of the DA still have their coins, as they are like badges of honor. 

~Neville Longbottom worked as an Auror before moving on as the Herbology professor at Hogwarts.

~The remaining Death Eaters were killed or imprisoned in Azkaban for their crimes, with the exception of the Malfoys.

~Luna Lovegood married the grandson of the Newt Scamander, author of ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ 

~Firenze survived his wounds and was welcomed back into the Centaur herd.

 ~Harry will never become Headmaster of Hogwarts since an academic career just isn’t him.

~Hagrid was still working at Hogwarts by 2017, at 88 years old.

~Draco Malfoy really cares about his son, Scorpius Malfoy. He is growing him up to be a better person than he was.

~Centaurs realized that “pro-human leanings were not shameful.

~Draco and Harry never became friends, but they did come to understand and appreciate each other better.

~Hermione tells Scrimgeour that she is not planning to embark on a career in Magical Law. Ironically, that’s where she ends up.

~After his death, Voldemort is forced to exist in the stunted infant-like form that Harry sees in the King’s Cross-like Limbo.

~Harry would  take his family to visit Dudley’s when they were in the neighbourhood (occasions dreaded by James, Albus and Lily).

~Arthur Weasley fixed Sirius’ motorbike and gave it to Harry.

~Nineteen years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the school for witchcraft and wizardry is led by an entirely new headmaster (“McGonagall was really getting on a bit”) as well as a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
