Harry Potter & The Cursed Child: 18 Biggest WTF Moments

9. Hermione The Stone Cold Bitch

Cursed Child WTF

Apparently, not getting together with Ron transformed Hermione into prickly know-it-all into total cold hard bitch.

Presumably his insufferable foolishness and constant japes were the tonic to her inner darkness, because when Ron married Padma Patil instead, Hermione followed in the illustrious footsteps of pretty much every villain in Harry Potter and became the Defence Against The Dark Arts teacher.

And not only that, but she's nasty. Like, a proper mean, nasty bitch whose dialogue basically channels the spirit of Snape at his most bitchiest. She openly mocks children, is snide... It's not exactly a great development for fans of book Hermione. Or for anyone who doesn't think someone showing romantic interest in a woman turns her into a bitter, twisted old maid with a burning hatred of children...
