Harry Potter: What If Merope Never Released Tom Riddle?

In Half-Blood Prince, we learn that Merope Gaunt used a love potion to force Tom Riddle Sr. into a relationship — but once she released him, he abandoned her, and she eventually died giving birth to Voldemort. But what if she never released him? Would Voldemort have had a “normal” childhood? Could love — even fake love — have changed the outcome? Or was Voldemort always destined for darkness?

Today we explore how this alternate timeline could have unfolded, from Merope’s choices to Voldemort’s obsession with power, the Deathly Hallows, and even how it might erase Harry Potter from existence entirely.

Would the Dark Lord have still risen… or might all have been saved?
