DUMBLEDORE IS GAY?!? These are the words shocked fans have been repeating all over the world, since J.K Rowling dropped the latest Potter bomb, at Carnegie Hall in New York on October 20th. Apparently, Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was in love with Gellert Grindelwald, his childhood friend, and was heartbroken when it turned out that Grindelwald was deeply interested in the Dark Arts. Feedback so far has been mostly positive, fans have been very supportive of J.K Rowlings decision, since there are not many popular gay characters in books. There is however, negative feedback from fans who believe revealing his sexuality was completely unnecessary. I for one, am one of those fans. This revealing information was totally uncalled for. I still don't undersatnd why she would divulge this after all seven books were out. Why didn't she tell us before? Rowling states that apparently, the topic never came up. Alright readers, thats all for now from potterpassion. I will be back soon, with all fresh news for fans.
