I'm not worried about book 5! On the contrary, her marriage was the 
best that could happen for it: she met her boyfriend a little over a 
year ago. That, IMHO, is the main reason for OoP being delayed in the 
firstplace!! 
A new love, dating, keeping it secret first, then discussing it with 
her daughter etc. must have occupied her mind and her time. So, we can 
all hope things get back to normal, once the honeymoon is over.
( Anyone on the list who is still taken out by her husband/his wife 
every second day when they're married longer then 2 weeks is either 
extremly lucky or an extreme liar(g) ).
 What is going to happen now is this: Her husband has to go to work 
(he's a doctor, I don't think he'll just sit down and rest with her 
money), Jessica is at school and JK can certainly afford someone to do 
the housework for her (Hey, she can send someone over to my place 
too), so JK has plenty of time again to write and complete OoP.
( the cosey, talk all night, evenings will go over to him falling 
asleep watching T.V after a couple of months, with Jessica sleeping in 
her bed, additional hours for the computer!)

So, I'm not afraid for OoP, what I really am scared about is Book 6 
and 7!! I mean, JK is still young enough to get pregnant. And, every 
Mum and Dad on this list knows how much time you have to yourself with 
a baby on your lap-none at all.
So let's all hope JK thinks Jessica is too old to have a little 
sibbling.Another Rowling would delay all future books by at least 3-4 
years!
