Who is Mattheo Riddle and Is He In Harry Potter?

Despite not being part of J.K. Rowling’s original Harry Potter series, Mattheo Riddle has found a niche within the fandom, brought to life through fan fiction and TikTok clips. Also known as Matthew Thomas Riddle, this character has been fancast as the son of Tom Marvolo Riddle Jr., famously known as Lord Voldemort, and Bellatrix Lestrange, one of Voldemort’s most loyal followers.

Matthew Riddle’s history is primarily showcased through clips on TikTok and other social media platforms, featuring actor Marcus Lopez Arguello from the movie “Deadly Class.” According to the Harry Potter Fandom page, he was born on December 29, 1991, making him the second eldest of the three siblings. His twin sister, Aliana, is ten seconds younger than him, and his half-sister Mandy Lestrange, who shares the same mother but not the same father, is the eldest.

Matthew’s years at Hogwarts (2002-2008) were packed with a multitude of experiences, from confronting bullies and studying hexes to navigating complex relationships and personal dilemmas. Notably, his school years were marked by his struggle to live up to his father’s name, all while dealing with emotional upheaval and navigating complex relationships. In the third year, Matthew began to harness his power, studying hexes and jinxes to combat bullies. Simultaneously, he fostered a secret crush on a young Ravenclaw girl, whom he publicly bullied. By the fourth year, he found himself embroiled in a serious fight and learned about his classmates’ fears through a lesson on Boggarts in Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Matthew’s fifth year marked a significant change in his character as his disdain for Muggle-borns began to wane. This change of heart, however, was concealed to preserve his reputation. His hatred for Corwin Crouch, a classmate, began in his sixth year, fueling tensions that would later escalate into a war. By his seventh year, Matthew had developed a variety of skills, including Parseltongue, Legilimency, wandless magic, non-verbal magic, and Occlumency, which significantly influenced his journey.

A critical part of Matthew’s life at Hogwarts was his evolving relationship with Ava Granger. Initially rivals, they started secret tutoring sessions in his fourth year, which led to a blossoming romantic relationship. Their love story took a positive turn as they got engaged and married four years after graduation, even conceiving a son, Thomas Smith Riddle. Tragically, Ava was later murdered, leaving Matthew a widower.

Matthew Riddle’s intriguing life, from his Hogwarts years to his personal relationships, demonstrates the extensive creative liberties that fans take to expand the Harry Potter universe. Although he’s not part of the canonical Harry Potter world, the exploration of his story shows the depth of engagement within the Harry Potter fandom and the endless possibilities for creating new, captivating narratives.
