Philosopher's Stone

The very first meeting and the beginning of the friendship between our two lovely sidekicks. An obvious perfect match from the very first time she told him to wipe the smudge dirt off of his nose.

Ron initially considers Hermione arrogant, teasing her, mocking her, and continuously making fun of her at school. (In love much?) His behavior towards her changes however, when she lies to protect them from punishment after they save her life from a troll, and thus the trio is born. The arguing and bickering ensues, however things seem much more friendlier between the two.



Chamber of Secrets

During a confrontation between the Gryffindor and Slytherin Quidditch teams, a brawl nearly ensues after Draco Malfoy has the audacity to call Hermione a "mudblood", and an angry Ron attempts to hex Draco into oblivion. Unfortunately, the condition of his wand after crashing in to the Whomping Willow, leaves him throwing up slugs for the next few months. But the point was taken, insult his girl, and Ron will kick your ass.




Prisoner of Azkaban

Throughout the school year, Ron immediately notices that something is up with Hermione. He constantly wonders why Hermione seems to disappear from classes with the drop of a hat, and is concerned about her insane class schedule, and the affect it is seeming to have on her. Not only that, but now, Crookshanks is thrown in to the mix, Hermione's new cat who Ron vehemently disapproves of because of his behavior towards Scabbers, his old pet rat. More bickering follows.



Goblet of Fire

A huge turning point between the two lovebirds! Ron finally seems to realize that our Hermine is in fact a girl. A revelation made too late it seems, as a certain international quidditch star has already invited Hermione to the Yule Ball. This turns out to be a good thing however, as it served as a wake-up call for our dear friend, Ron, who seethes with anger. The sexual tension and flirty bickering is as obvious as ever now.



Order of the Phoenix

This is only the beginning of the blossoming relationship between the two. Ron actually manages to control his temper, whilst Hermione grows more frustrated with the fact that Ron is still clueless about his feelings. Of course, there's no denying the sweetheart he is, his Christmas present to Hermione? Perfume! ♥ And there are even more kicky moments, now that Ron and Hermione are both school prefects, and Harry seems to spending a lot more of his time in detention.

Half-Blood Prince

Ron and Hermione's relationship progresses even further as both of them are seemingly more open to the idea of a relationship with each other. But just when they reach their breaking point, the secret that Hermione kissed Viktor Krum in their fourth year, reaches Ron's ears, so he decides to get revenge, and kisses Lavender Brown. Again, and again, and again, until Hermione sends a flock of yellow canaries after him in outrage. Though, by the end of the book -with a terrified Hermione finding out Ron has been poisoned on his birthday and Ron uttering her name in his sleep, it seems everything is alright again, hence Ron's breaking up with Lavender, and Hermione crying into Ron's shoulder at Dumbledore’s funeral, flinging the door wide open for the anticipated relationship to begin in the seventh and final book.

Deathly Hallows

The final book! And luckily for us, by this point, both Ron and Hermione have finally accepted the fact that they have feelings for one another. Which is why this book is such a sidekicker‘s dream!.

Both are now fully aware of how the other feels., and at this point, it is just a matter of who decides to make the first move and when. Right from the beginning of the book you can notice the changes in Ron, at the end of his rope, Ron does something truly worthy of the name Mr. Hermione Jean Granger, he reads!! Thanks to the godsend "Twelve Fail-safe Ways To Charm Witches", Ron begins to put the moves on Hermione! Dancing with her at Bill and Fleur’s wedding, holding her hand while she was sleeping , giving her comfort when she was upset, and complementing her incessantly throughout the book, -Ron is for lack of a better term, effin’ hot! Not only Ron but Hermione’s feelings are clearer then ever as well. Her broken heart after he abandons the horcrux quest, and her being alternately overjoyed and furious when he finally returns to her-Ron’s anguished sobs as Hermione is tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange, and his fear of her not loving him but Harry instead. Heart-wrenching angst that is truly Kleenex worthy all of which eventually leads up to that long-awaited and epic snog: Hermione flinging herself into Ron’s arms and kissing the daylights out of him right in the middle of the final battle! Reaction? About friggin’ time!

Sp. after years of bickering, teasing, jealousy, and disappointment, we are overjoyed to say the two sidekicks are finally together, happily married with two beautiful young children Rose and Hugo.

Meant to be is right. ♥ Credit to Leo_For_Life

Why Ron & Hermione are THE Harry Potter Ship

JK Rowling Quotes

Q: Is it just me, or was something going on between Ron and Hermione during the last half of Goblet of Fire?
A: Yes, something's 'going on,' but Ron doesn't realize it yet. Typical boy.
- BarnesandNoble.com Fan Chat, October 2000

Katie Couric: Any snogging with Hermione?
J.K. Rowling: Hermione and Harry? Do you think so?
KC: No, I'm kidding!
JKR: Ron and Hermione, I would say, there's more tension there.
- Datelines NBC Interview with Katie Couric, June 21, 2003

Q: What happened between Hermione and Viktor Krum during the summer?
A: Ron would like to know that, too.
- World Book Day Chat, March 4, 2004

Emerson Spartz: We thought it was clearer than ever that Harry and Ginny are an item and Ron and Hermione — although we think you made it painfully obvious in the first five books —
J.K. Rowling: [points to herself and whispers] So do I!
ES: What was that?
JKR: [more loudly] Well so do I! So do I!

I will say, that yes, I personally feel - well it's going to be clear once people have read book six. I mean, that’s it. It’s done, isn’t it? We know. Yes, we do now know that it's Ron and Hermione. I do feel that I have dropped heavy ints. ANVIL-sized, actually, hints, prior to this point.

JKR: Well I think anyone who is still shipping Harry/Hermione after this book -
ES: [whispered] Delusional!
JKR: Uh, no! But they need to go back and reread, I think.
- Mugglenet/Leaky Cauldron interview with J.K. Rowling

Q: What did you feel when you finally wrote the kiss, awaited so much by the fans, of ron and hermione
A: I loved writing it, and I loved the fact that Hermione took the initiative! Ron had finally got SPEW and earned himself a snog!

Q: What was the third smell that hermione smelt in the amortentia potion in hbp (ie the particular essence of ron)
A: I think it was his hair. Every individual has very distinctive-smelling hair, don't you find?
- Bloomsbury Deathly Hallows Fan Chat

Cast/Filmmaker Quotes

The following are quotes from the actors, producers and directors about the Ron and Hermione relationship.

Caroline Rhea: Is there any romance coming for Harry Potter? I'm talking purely fictional now. Anything?
Daniel Radcliffe: I think Ron and Hermione are going to get together. That's what I think.
- The Caroline Rhea Show, Chamber of Secrets Promotion

Emma Watson: It's kind of one of those classic love-hate romance going on between Hermione and Ron. But I think deep down they have a bit of a soft spot for each other.

Rupert Grint: There's a few also awkward hand-holding moments, a little bit. It was fun to do.
- EXTRA Interview, Prisoner of Azkaban Promotion

Al Roker: Now, were you surprised that it would be Ron instead of Harry that Hermione'd be interested in?
Emma Watson: Well, Harry's the hero, I suppose, but obviously not for Hermione.
- Today Show Interview, 2004

Emma Watson: I'm going to make Rupert really uncomfortable now. For goodness sake! Hermione and Ron just need to get it together! This has been SO long now! They're so wrong, but they're so right. It just needs to happen and they just need to get on with it. Yeah, if that doesn't happen I am going to be really frustrated. Oh God! It's still ongoing. So, hopefully they will end up together.
- Conference call for Goblet of Fire

Newsround: The other big thing in this film is all the romance going on. Do we see any hints about Ron and Hermione and are you trying to hurry this process along?
Rupert Grint: That was quite a major part for Ron, because the whole Yule Ball thing, because him and Dan (Harry) have to get partners for the dance and they find it quite hard. And Ron's really jealous of Hermione as well, so there's still that sort of thing happening.
NR: With the whole Ron and Hermione thing, we've seen in the books how that's going, how do you personally feel about that. Is that something you're looking forward to, or is that something you with JK hadn't done?
RG: It's quite fun at the moment, at the moment it's just sort of subtle. But I don't what'll happen in the future, who knows?
- Newsround, November 2005

Q: When's Ron going to have some luck with the ladies?
Rupert Grint: I don't know! I think Ron's always been after Hermione. Throughout all four films, it's always been pretty plain that he's got a thing for her, and there's always been a feeling that things could happen between them. I mean, it almost happened in the last film, and there's a bit more of that in this one because of the school ball, but I guess Ron will just take it as it happens.
- Movie Magic Interview

Q: Having read the new books, is there anything you're particularly looking forward to in the next couple of films?
Rupert Grint: Dunno, I haven't read the sixth book yet.
Emma Watson: Well, of course, Hermione and Ron get closer...
Rupert Grint: Urgh. We don't have to kiss, do we?
- Goblet of Fire Promotion, 2005

Clearly today, though, Watson hankers to be a little provocative so I ask her about the prospect of kissing Grint, her suitor in the sixth film, Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, which starts filming in September. Director David Yates describes it as being about sex, drugs and rock'n'roll.

"Kissing Rupert's going to be sooo awkward," Watson says, screwing up her cute rosy-cheeked face. "I'm trying not to think about it ... it's all part of the job I guess. Don't tell him I said that. Rupert's lovely. Girls would probably give their left arm to be in my position, so I'm certainly not complaining."
- Sydney Morning Herald Interview, 2007

Emma Watson: This interviewer sat down and she was like, "Well, this hacker is claiming what's going to happen and she's not going to make it and she's the one." I was just like, "No, no, no. You don't understand. She's meant to be with Ron and she's meant to just..."
MovieWeb Interview

Rupert Grint: It's sort of been suggested through all of them that Ron and Hermione will get together. Everyone keeps saying something will happen in the seventh between them. I wouldn't be surprised. It's bound to happen, really.
MTV 2007, Deathly Hallows speculation

Emma Watson: I hope Ron and Hermione get together in the end. They'd be a good couple.
