"Dumbledore is gay." | quote of a quote:

In front of a full house of hardcore Potter fans at Carnegie Hall in New York, Rowling, sitting on the stage on a red velvet and carved wood throne, read from her seventh and final book, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," then took questions. One fan asked whether Albus Dumbledore, the head of the famed Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, had ever loved anyone. Rowling smiled. "Dumbledore is gay, actually," replied Rowling as the audience errupted in surprise. She added that, in her mind, Dumbledore had an unrequited love affair with Gellert Grindelwald, Voldemort's predecessor who appears in the seventh book. After several minutes of prolonged shouting and clapping from astonished fans, Rowling added. "I would have told you earlier if I knew it would make you so happy."
marvelous.

can't wait to see what happens next!

It's totally implied in the last book. Obvious enough to anyone old enough to recognize it, and oblique enough that the kiddies wouldn't.

I don't think the British will care, and anyone over here who would care would probably have already have dismissed the books 'cause of Teh Witches! So, *shrug*

Yeah, but those people don't count. I don't see it as being that much of a bruhaha. I mean, wingnuts, sure...but I don't think you'll see sputtering on CNN.
