Has Professor Storm put a bun in the oven in the lead up to Christmas? Is a baby brain the cause of all of St Mungo’s problems?

Christmas is the time for family, drinking and shotgun marriages apparently, or at least one couple seem to think so. Coming back from a sudden and unplanned trip to Norway of all places, grumpy Hogwarts Deputy Headmaster seems to have made ice queen Miranda Elliot - Head Healer of St Mungo’s Hospital - his wife. 

Voted by his students Most Likely to Stay Single, it would appear that Professor Storm has found himself a much more attractive and younger wife than he may have previously dreamed of. But he may also have received a lot more than he wished for!


So, dear readers, I hear you wondering what may have been the draw for these two to come together? Why the sudden urgency in eloping and marrying in secret? What have the pair to hide?

Let me tell you the story of Miranda Elliot’s tragic past: once a promising healer, a doting mother and a happy wife, everything fell apart when her husband was ripped from her clutches by a vicious dragon only a few years ago.  A husband whom she had adored and planned a future with had been cruelly taken as she had clung to him, dying in the hospital bed; a healer unable to save her own husband from injuries far beyond her abilities. 

And let me tell you of a young Ignan Storm, tormented by the suicide of a mother that couldn’t bring herself to love him, soon turned to his own brand of cruelty as he started upon his life of tormenting students.

These two are all too similar, their anguished souls brought together by the Tetrawizard Tournament last year.

But why, readers; why an elopement for two persons so well known for being unemotional and heartless?

Some may say it was through fear of losing her after the coma in early December. But Witch Weekly has been digging the dirt for you:

We caught the newest Mrs Storm shortly after waking from her coma in December. But look closely - is that a bump covered by her coat? She is certainly looking decidedly haggard and those files are rather perfectly placed!

We all know why people rush to get married, dearest readers. Why should the Storms be any different?  Who says it will last past the newest arrival? Take note that Madam Elliot has not yet changed her name - will she ever, or is she ashamed of her new husband and the situation she has found herself in? She is already a grandmother, and now, a mother to be again?


What do you think: Has Miranda Elliot been suffering from the baby brain or is she simply too old? Is this hasty marriage doomed?
