I came across an article written by JKR in InsideMS magazine.  
www.nationalmssociety.org/IMSSu02-MyMother.asp In the article, she 
writes, "A year later my mother gave birth to a fat, blonde baby 
girl, and two years after that had a skinny, black-haired baby girl-
my sister, Di."

This is definitely a sign that Dudley will be redeemed in the end.  
This also explains why JKR said she loved Dudley as a character in 
one of the interviews.  We also have the hint that the Dursleys will 
play an unexpected role in the future.  What if Dudley has been a 
wizard all along?  Maybe Uncle Vernon tore up his letter from 
Hogwarts, and Dudley was just too dim to care.  

This also explains one reason why Di encouraged JKR to publish the 
books.  I'm sure she enjoyed the humorous reconstructions of their 
own sibling rivalry.  Since her sister Di is a lawyer, maybe that 
supports theories that Harry will become an Auror.  A lawyer would be 
the closest you could get to an Auror in the muggle world.
