All depends on your POV  (and shipping preferences)  My sister is actually an 
R/Hr and her impression is that JKR was leading Katie on.    My thought was 
no way is she going to refuse to rule out any shipping possiblity to the BBC 
and then confirm another to NBC.  Especially after admitting that she had 
foreshadowing "certain feelings between the 3 of them that belong to a slightly more 
mature person" in an April interview.  

Nope both H/Hr adn R/Hr ships are still firmly tied to the dock, IMO. I saw 
hints for both couples and things that could be explained in either direction.  
I also saw hints for N/G, R/Luna, H/Luna and even a small possibity of H/G 
being revisited since she's dropped the hero worship.  I think that the only 
ship that is dead- is D/Her.
