Severus Snape's Family Life
Severus Snape, a Half-Blood wizard, was the son of Muggle Tobias Snape and pure-blood witch Eileen Prince. Throughout his complex life as a Hogwarts Potions Master, Head of Slytherin House, and a double agent during the Second Wizarding War, Snape was never known to have any children. His deep personal history and unwavering, though hidden, loyalty to Albus Dumbledore and his unrequited love for Lily Potter defined his existence, leaving no room for a known family of his own.
The Connection Between Snape and the Malfoys
While there is no biological connection, Severus Snape shared a significant relationship with the Malfoy family due to their shared allegiance to Lord Voldemort as Death Eaters. Snape also held a protective, albeit complicated, role concerning Draco, particularly during Draco's sixth year at Hogwarts. Under Albus Dumbledore's orders, Snape swore to protect Draco, a promise he upheld even at great personal cost. This protective stance, combined with Snape's general favoritism towards Slytherin students, might have led some to speculate about a deeper bond, but it was purely a matter of duty and alliance, not kinship.
