The Life of Bill Weasley Explained (+Bill & Fleur Relationship): Harry Potter

bill

or william

weasley

is the eldest of the seven

weasley

children, he is an incredible character, but unfortunately the movie left out much of his character development, we only saw him in Deathly Hall as part 1 and 2 and even then most of his story wasn't So there's a lot more to his character arc in this video. I'm going to fill in the gaps that the movie left out and correct what happened in the books versus the movies, so keep in mind that I'm going by the novels, not. All 8 movies too, despite the fact that Bill played such a big role in many of the games, I'm not including any video games like Hogwarts Mystery or Wizard Unite because most Harry Potter fans don't consider the games to be canon.

I thought this. It was the perfect time to make this video because Bill's birthday was November 29th, which was actually last Sunday, and as a fun fact, he was born in 1970, so today in 2020 he would be 50 years old, which is a madness, so let's celebrate the oldest weasley of his birthday week by looking back at his entire timeline,

bill

was the firstborn of arthur and molly weasley and grew up in their house which was nicknamed the burrow after his mother and father, he had the bright red hair, something his family would become known for when Bill was born.

At birth, the family had an average amount of money and managed quite well in Bill's early

life

. The family was not constantly worried about their finances. This began to change; However, as Bill had more and more siblings because there just wasn't enough money. for everyone and over time they became a rather poor family who unfortunately, like the red hair they would become known for, at the age of two, Bill got his first brother named Charlie and at the age of six years he got his second brother named Percy. The point where they were okay with money but in the future is when they would start to have financial difficulties when Bill was eight years old he had two more twin brothers named Fred and George, at the age of 10 Bill had another brother named Ron and finally at the age of 11.

Bill had a sister named Jenny during Bill's childhood he witnessed the height of the first wizarding war when Voldemort first came to power Bill's two uncles on his mother's side Fabian and Gideon Pruitt joined Albus Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix alliance to fight Voldemort and his Death Eaters. Tragically, the two were killed in the heat of battle by a group of Death Eaters and Bill had to deal with their loss at an age that was too Young Bill was a very good kid growing up and never got into trouble which made Molly and Arthur's

life

very easy, something that can't be said for some of those younger siblings.

Jenny always admired Bill more than any of her other siblings, as she saw him as the coolest guy she knew and the two had a special bond. As the oldest and youngest in the family, Jenny always took her side if there was an argument and valued what he said so much that if Bill said something then that settled it for her, her opinion was the only thing that mattered. it mattered. The year Ginny was born. It was the year Bill went to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and, like his mother and father, he was sorted into Gryffindor house because Bill was the firstborn, he received new robe books and anything else he needed. for school, but the rest of his siblings were forced to use used objects that were once theirs because the family did not have enough money.

Well, at Hogwarts, Bill had a pen pal who was a student at the magical school in Brazil and the two became very close. Bill really wanted to. visit him but unfortunately his parents said no because they couldn't afford it when he told his pen pal he couldn't go, he got angry and sent Bill a cursed hat that made his ears wrinkle in his fifth year at Hogwarts. . owls from him and took a whopping 12 of them, a pretty impressive number and he scored very well on all of them in his seventh year. He also got very high scores on his new teas, which set him up for a successful future on top of that bill.

He was also named prefect in his fifth year and headmaster in his last year at Hogwarts, something that made his parents very proud with all these academic achievements. Many would imagine that Bill was more like his younger brother, Percy, who would later have many of the same academic achievements, but Bill was actually the opposite of this, he was actually really cool, he had grown bright red hair and He had tied it in a ponytail and when he wasn't wearing his Hogwarts robes he wore clothes that wouldn't look out of place at a rock concert. Bill finished his seventh year at Hogwarts in 1989 and not long after, Bill got a job working for Gringotts. , which had been his number one desired career path, as he was a perfect boss and a model student.

It was no surprise to anyone that he got this great job and his parents were very proud of him. Gringotts was located in London, but Bill's work took him to Egypt, where he was permanently stationed. Bill's job at Gringotts was to work as a curse breaker, meaning that he would remove counter-curses or break curses that were placed on specific objects or even a specific place or location. He would use these skills to venture through tombs, caves, mountains, deserts and forests in search of old treasures in search of things that would make the bank a profit because these places contained treasures, it was essential for a curse breaker like Bill to break the security that the witch wizard put up to protect his loot, otherwise those curses could seriously injure or even kill those who got too close.

He had a tough job. but he loved it because Gringotts was run by goblins. Bill got to know his kind very well and one of the biggest takeaways he gained from working with them was that he couldn't trust them or lie to them because they hated wizards for reasons that dated back to the past. thousands of years ago, if you're interested, I actually made a video on goblin history that explains all of this and I'll link it below, but fast forward about three years into his work in Egypt, Bill was visited by his mother and his father for the first time. first time since he left for his job and this was the first time he had seen anyone from his family since he moved to Egypt.

A few months later, Bill's father, Arthur, won a big prize and they spent the money to take the whole family to Egypt to visit. Bill and he was delighted to have them. Bill took his family through some tombs that he and his team had broken into and showed them some old muggle skeletons that had been mutated by growing extra hands and legs and this was a direct result of the cursing Bill was hired to do. to break, showing how important a curse breaker is if he hadn't broken the curses correctly they too could have been mutated the following summer Bill returned to his town so we could go to the quidditch world cup with his family and this was the For the first time in several years that the seven Weasley children were back home in the district, this meant that there was limited space, however, especially as they were hosting Ron's friends, Harry and Hermione, on top of the nine Weasleys that Bill had added. to her coldness with a new fang earring dangling from one of her ears, something Jenny found really impressive when Harry, Ron's friend, arrived at the township.

Bill stood up smiling and shook Harry's hand introducing himself when Mrs. Weasley asked Bill and Charlie to come. They set up the tables for dinner, the two decided to have fun and used their wands to make the two tables fight each other in the air just as Bill's table lost a leg, Percy stuck his head out the window and told them to keep it. low. because he was working and bill apologized and made fun of his brother sarcastically asking him how his nonsensical report was going and percy responded by closing the window chuckling and charlie put the tables back and magically arranged them so they could dine during dinner Mrs.

Weasley She was arguing with Bill about her new earring and she asked him what people at work thought, but Bill responded by saying that no one at the bank gave a damn how she dressed as long as she brought them lots of treasures. Mrs. Weasley then said that Bill's hair looked good. It was silly and she wished he would let her cut it, but then Jenny intervened and said she liked it and she jokingly added that it wasn't as long as Professor Dumbledore's. The next morning, everyone except Mrs. Weasley went to the Quidditch World Cup and luckily for Bill, along with Charlie and Percy, they didn't have to get up super early like everyone else because they could legally operate there later that day. day when it was time for the game everyone was able to enjoy it in the best seats in the house and magix box minister bill really enjoyed the game and was very grateful to be able to have such good seats because it was not often that his family got the best Because of how poor they were after the game, when everyone was asleep, chaos broke out.

The Death Eaters attacked the camp and Bill along with Charlie and Percy came out of their tents with their wands raised. The three of them along with Mr. Weasley ran to help the ministry and in the fight, Bill suffered a deep cut on his arm that was bleeding. Fortunately, although everyone was safe and the Death Eaters fled the next morning, everyone returned to the office and to distract themselves from the whole bad bill together with Charlie, Fred George and Ron played quidditch three on three in the orchard when the time came for them. everyone will return to Hogwarts for the start of the semester.

Bill along with Charlie and Mrs. Weasley watched the younger ones get off platform nine and three quarters before they boarded. Bill hinted to them that something special was going to happen that year, adding that he wanted to be back at Hogwarts for something special and then said that he might even have to take time off work to come watch for a while, but Bill gave them no further clues. even though they begged for more information about what Bill was implying. It was the triwizard tournament and Harry was unexpectedly chosen to participate in the final task. Each champion had his family come to see him, but since Harry had no family besides the Dursleys, who of course would never come, Bill and Mrs.

Weasley came to support Harry. Her family while greeting Harry, another champion named Fleur de la Cour began to look at Bill with great interest. Ella Fleur was the champion of the French magical school and was actually a quarter candle Avila, a semi-human magical species who was incredibly beautiful and hypnotically seductive. and irresistible to men because

fleur

was only a quarter candle, the effects were not as strong, but she was still quite hypnotic, as Ron, Bill's younger brother, discovered while getting extremely embarrassed asking her to give you a ball while Bill he looked around. He was delighted to be back and asked Harry if the photo of the mad knight called Duggan circa was still around and Harry laughed saying that he was.

Harry then gave Bill and Mrs. Weasley a tour and the two spent the rest of the day with Harry leading them to the final task. Bill encouraged Harry as he entered the maze, but the task ended in disaster. Harry returned with a dead Cedric Diggory and claimed that Voldemort had returned. Harry was taken from the scene and Bill along with Mrs. Weasley, Ron and Hermione were frantic. trying to find him to make sure he was okay, Dumbledore finally took them to the hospital wing where Harry was resting and Dumbledore told Bill and the others not to ask Harry questions about what had happened and they all agreed.

Bill then looked at Cornelius Fudge and Dumbledore. he got into an argument and witnessed the two decide to separate after Mrs. Weasley told Dumbledore that she and Arthur were with him. Bill told Dumbledore that he would go find his father and tell her what had happened, explaining how Fudge refused. believing that Voldemort had returned and how he turned against Dumbledore. Dumbledore told Bill to be discreet and Bill told Dumbledore to leave it to him. He patted Harry on the shoulder, kissed his mother on the cheek, said goodbye to everyone and quickly left the room to carry out Dumbledore's orders Dumbledore restarted the order of the phoenix when the second wizarding war was starting and this Once Bill along with his parents and Charlie joined together ready to fight just like uncles Fabian and Gideon who lost their lives in the last war.

He joined his parents along with Fred George, Ron and Ginny, and moved into the Order's headquarters that summer at 12 Grimmeld Place. However, Bill was left very disappointed when Percy refused to join and turned against him and the rest of the family, even saying the most horrible things he could think of about his father and slamming the door in his mother's face when she tried. to talk to him to help with the phoenix bill order he decided not to return to egypt and in hisInstead he took a desk job at Gringotts in London, something that was much less exciting than what he did in Egypt, but something good came out of this flower of the stream: Quarter Vela, who was watching Bill at Hogwarts, took a job at Gringotts and Bill was giving him a lot of private information. lessons, I'll let you figure out what that means that Bill being home made a big difference to the order, as they could use all the help they could get.

One of the jobs Dumbledore gave Bill was to persuade the goblins to side with him on this. war, as Bill had worked closely with the goblins for many years during his time at Gringotts, but was having little luck because, as I said before, they hated wizards and ended up not taking sides despite all the work Bill did. trying to persuade them while he was at an ordering business mr weasley was attacked by the snake voldemort nagini and when he was admitted to saint mongo hospital bill took the morning off from work and sat with his father bill was very worried but fortunately Arthur fully recovered to the delight of the entire Weasley family and the entire order, it finally came to light that Voldemort really returned and Fudge was forced to resign as minister after this bill was passed.

Waiting for Percy to get back on his feet on his side, but Percy still refused to talk to his family, which really hurt Bill and the rest of the Weasleys. The war only got worse after this, as Voldemort was no longer in hiding, meaning he did everything he could to cause it. As much chaos as possible Bill continued to spend a lot of time with Fleur Delacour giving her more and more lessons and eventually the two fell in love. Bill cared about her a lot and decided that he wanted to spend the rest of her life with her.

The summer before Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts, Bill proposed a flower and she enthusiastically accepted. She then asked her brother Charlie if he would be her godfather and Charlie said it would be an honor for him. Bill wanted Fleur to get to know his family better, so he invited Fleur to stay in the district that summer while he was busy working at Gringotts, however, Mrs. Weasley, along with Ginny and even Hermione, didn't like her. Both Fleur, especially Mrs. Weasley, felt that Bill would be quick to agree to this engagement. Mrs. Weasley then argued that they had nothing in common. common since Bill was a hard-working and down-to-earth person, but Jenny noticed her and told her mother that Bill was not down-to-earth because he was a curse breaker.

She said she liked a little adventure and a little glamor like the treasures she worked to find and that's why she went after someone like Quarter Vela Fleur while at the Burrow Bill and Fleur began planning their wedding and Mrs. Weasley many times. Sometimes he was busy with the menial task but he was really listening. Bill and Fleur stayed in the neighborhood over Christmas and continued to be affectionate, something that annoyed Mrs. Weasley and Ginny, but made Ron watch so he could choose. he collected tips as he himself was in his first

relationship

with lavender brown while everyone was home for the holidays, to everyone's surprise the new minister of magic showed up in the district with percy and this ended with percy receiving food that fred george and He and Jenny stormed out even though they were angry.

Bill and the entire Weasley family were sad because Percy was lost and everyone missed him that spring. Dumbledore commissioned some members of the order to patrol Hogwarts during his absence and Bill was one of the chosen members. That night, the Death Eaters entered the school with the help of Draco Malfoy and an all-out battle began during the fight. Bill ended up seriously injured when he was mauled by a werewolf named Fenrir Greyback. Bill lay on the ground for the rest of the battle. He was so injured that he could not move and when the battle finally ended he was rushed to the infirmary.

Greybeck had mutilated Bill so much that his handsome face was no longer recognizable, he was badly cut and torn and Harry thought to himself that he looked grotesque. Madam Pomfrey tried everything she could, but she told everyone that there was no cure for werewolf bites, luckily because Greyback didn't transform into his werewolf form, Bill didn't turn into a werewolf, but as Lupine

explained

, The wounds on his face were cursed wounds, meaning he would never heal, he then

explained

that Bill might have some wolfish characteristics from now on, when Mr. and Mrs. Weasley arrived and saw their son, Mrs.

Weasley screamed in devastation as As she spread ointment on her son's wounds, she began to cry and her tears fell on Bill's mutilated body. Mrs. Weasley began to say that appearances didn't matter, but she added that he was always a very handsome boy. She then cried saying that he was getting married and Fleur intervened asking her what she meant by going to Fleur and she approached Mrs. Weasley saying that. he would still love her even after the accident and the shocked mrs weasley said she thought

fleur

wouldn't want to marry him anymore fleur said they were still going to get married she said she didn't care how she looked and said these scars just showed that her husband was brave this made mrs weasley finally accept her son's fiancé and the two hugged each other crying something that made bill very happy to hear when he woke up bill had to stay in the infirmary for a while after that and his las His scars didn't heal, in fact, they were as bad as ever, thankfully, although his personality seemed the same and the only side effect of the bites was that he now really liked rare steaks, something that made Fleur happy, as she said. , the British always.

She overcooked his meat anyway, Bill wasn't the only one who was injured in that battle. Dumbledore was killed by Snape and days later Bill attended his funeral because he had not yet turned 100, however, Fleur supported him as they walked to his seat despite the terrible injury Bill had. He maintained that he and Fleur did not postpone their wedding and decided to have it in the district that previous summer. However, they were given the mission to get Harry out of his uncles' house themselves and many other members of the order were part of a plan. where half of them would take a polyjuice potion to look like

harry

and the other half would escort the doubles fleur took a potion of paulo juice and flew on ethestro with bill since flair didn't really like brooms, however, when They all took off, they realized that they were betrayed and had fallen into a trap, a lot of Death Eaters were waiting for them, and Bill saw how a flying Voldemort was going after Madai and Montungas, Mondungus, became depressed and Voldemort's curse hit Mad Eye.

Bill sadly saw how Madai's lifeless body fell to the ground there he was. However, he couldn't have done anything, as they had half a dozen Death Eaters behind them, they escaped and were the last, besides Madiya Mundungus, to return. Everyone was very relieved to see them, but Bill ignored them all, looked directly into his father's eyes and said. he told him that maddai was dead when they came in bill took out a bottle of firewhiskey and some glasses and when everyone had a glass bill picked us up and said crazy eye and the rest did the same toasting their fallen friend bill and lupine then They agreed where they had to go get Maddie's body and when Mrs.

Weasley asked if she could wait, Bill said he wasn't going to let the Death Eaters get to her body first after saying this, no one else protested, unfortunately Bill and Lupine didn't. They found Maddie's body. because just as Bill had feared that the bad guys had arrived first to distract everyone, everyone threw themselves into preparing Bill and Fleur's wedding, they made Fleur's family stay in the district and Bill joined his future father-in-law and his future family, including Fleur's. little sister when the ceremony took place, Bill was with his godfather, Charlie, waiting for the love of his life to come and join him when Fleur entered.

Harry noted that normally his radiance dimmed everyone else in comparison, but today he beautified everyone who fell upon him to make Bill. It seemed as if he had never been attacked by Greyback after they both said "Yes, yes", Bill and Fleur immediately disappeared into a crowd of well-wishers so happy that they were now married that the newlyweds were the first to leave. onto the dance floor and were greeted with loud applause not long after that, though they learned that the ministry had fallen and a bunch of Death Eaters crashed the party. Bill Fleur and the rest of his family were forced to stay behind while everyone else escaped and were held for a moment.

They were interrogated, but in the end they were let go, since they were married. Bill and Fleur moved out of the township and got a house of their own in a shell hut. It was a very quiet place as their house was alone on a cliff overlooking the sea. Bill went back to work. and one day while he was at the bank, he heard the news that Ginny and some other students tried to steal the Gryffindor sword from Snape's office at Hogwarts and Bill was worried about the consequences his younger sister would face, but fortunately the punishment It was just her.

In the woods with Hagrid, Bill listened to the radio station called Potterwatch, which was the radio station that updated Harry's supporters on what was going on and Bill had a real knack for guessing the passwords you needed to hear. Bill was surprised when Ron showed up. at his door at Shell Cottage, since Bill knew that he was supposed to be on a mission with Harry and Hermione, Ron explained that they had gotten into a fight, so he left and told Bill that he had no the guts to face them. parents or other siblings and tell them that he abandoned his friends.

Bill was not impressed when he heard what Ron had done, but he did not pursue the topic because he realized that Ron really regretted what he had done and kept this a secret. secret from the rest of the family and at Christmas he told Mrs. Weasley that he and Fleur were not coming because they wanted to spend their first holiday as a married couple alone, although in reality it was so that Ron would not be alone, but eventually Ron returned. to join his friends, which made bill very happy shortly after, although ron appeared again, but this time with

harry

hermione luna alevander dean griphook and dobby and when bill ran out to meet him he saw that dobby had lost his life, bill let harry bury him.

Dobby outside his house and then Harry told Bill that Alexander and Grippo couldn't leave. Bill got a little irritated because he was being told what to do in his own house and asked Harry what the hell was going on when he showed up with a dead man. house elf, a half-conscious elf, and Hermione who looked like she had been tortured, which of course was hours before Harry told him, however, that he couldn't tell him and said that Bill knew that Dumbledore had left him a mission, an annoying style stormed away. but bill ignored his wife and stared at harry and finally agreed to let harry do whatever he wanted. bill greeted everyone as they improved and watched as harry ron and hermione only went out at mealtime and spent all day talking to griphook when they did.

Come out, Bill looked at them thoughtfully but also worried. One day, Lupine arrived at Shellcottage and Bill was delighted to see him and meet his and Tonks's newborn baby girl, named Teddy, after Harry was named godfather to him. Bill congratulated him on this saying it was a real honor, but then Bill got serious and asked what Harry wanted from Gripbook and asked what Harry had promised the goblin when Harry said he couldn't tell him. Bill warned Harry that if he made any kind of deal with the goblin, he must be exceptionally careful since goblins were a different species and viewed property differently than humans.

Harry noted that Bill was very intelligent and clearly knew more than he let on when he warned Harry specifically about the goblin-made items, which was precisely what Harry had. he used to close his deal with griphook harry ron hermione and griphook left a few days later to break into gringotts bill and fleur continued to house luna and dean and when they found out that harry was at Hogwarts the four of them arrived ready to fight In the battle, the The rest of the Weasley family also arrived and to everyone's surprise this included Percy, Percy apologized to his family and then went up to the flower and while shaking her hand he said that he was happy to have her as a sister.

The law, this and the apology cleared the air and the Weasley family was united again, however this did not last, the final battle was brutal and the Weasley family suffered a serious loss during a lull in the battle. Bill discovered that his brother Fred had been murdered and he and the rest of the Weasleys along with Fleur mourn their fallen brother. Despite this loss, they fought harder than ever and Bill and everyone else avenged Fred's death by defeating the death eaters and voldemort once and for all after the war that bill and fleur had three childrenVictoire Dominique and Louis Weasley Victoire was born on the anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts, hence her name, which means victory in French.

She would eventually have a

relationship

with Lupine and Tonk's son, Teddy, the baby Lupine had introduced to Bill when he came to Shell Cottage to work at Gringotts, but instead of returning to her desk job, she returned to Egypt and began dating. working to break curses again in 2014, bill and the rest of his family, both his family and fleur's, and all of his siblings and their spouses attended the quidditch world cup final. Bill lived out the rest of his days. a happy man, madly in love with the girl of his dreams and delighted to have such an incredible family. bill was a great, kind and adventurous person who cared deeply for those he loved over the years, he was an amazing son, an amazing brother and a great role model to his younger siblings and of course he became an incredible husband and an incredible father.
