What Happened to Luna Lovegood's Mother? - Harry Potter Explained

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing what happened to Luna Lovegood's mother, Pandora Lovegood. As any fan of the Harry Potter series will know, Luna Lovegood was the loyal and incredibly quirky Ravenclaw student who was first introduced to Harry and his friends at the beginning of The Order of the Phoenix. Often described as having her head in the clouds, some classmates went so far as to refer to her as "Loony Lovegood"--a rather unkind nickname meant to reference her eccentric views. The more we learned about Luna throughout the series, the more we understood that she came by her outlandish beliefs all too honestly. Her father, Xenophilius Lovegood, raised her on his own from the time she was nine, and he was quite the eccentric himself. Editor of the rather niche publication The Quibbler, which marketed itself as The Wizarding World's Alternative Voice, Xenophilius would run rather odd articles about things like conspiracy theories and creatures that did not exist. In any case, Xenophilius and Luna lived just the two of them near the village of Ottery St. Catchpole in Devon.Which brings us to today's question: what happened to Luna's mother, Pandora?
