The Weasley twins were always important to us as fans of the series but what is it about Fred and George Weasley that keep us talking about their relationship?

Fred and George Weasley are two characters that fans just seemed to gravitate towards. They were funny, carefree, and they loved each other most of all. So what is it about their relationship that kept us coming back? It was their willingness to do anything for their sibling.

Think about it, when push came to shove, Fred and George were always there for each other. Sure, they also were there for the other Weasley children but they were each other’s best friend. Fred’s death in the series is one that stays with fans for so long for a reason.

It isn’t just because he’s a great character but it is because we have seen him as a duo with his brother throughout most of the series. So knowing that George no longer has his best friend and the one person he can count on just hit us all a bit differently. That being said, there is something beautiful and fun about their relationship.

Sibling are, in a lot of ways, shown as hating each other most of the time. But with Fred and George, they’re best friends who do everything together and were never really separated until the very end. That kind of bond and relationship is important for fans to see and getting to see it through the twins made us lucky to have them in the Harry Potter series.
