To be fair, in the Sunday times, they give the headline "JK admits Hermione should have wed Harry" and there's this quote from the article: "Hermione's relationship with Harry was more like brother and sister in the books, but the actress [Emma Watson] agrees [presumably with JKR during the interview] that they would have made a better match."

Not that the assumption that Hermione had to end up with either one of them (or anyone at all), isn't annoying.
Regarding the relationship counseling thing, I think JKR might saying that it was unrealistic since she didn't have them go through relationship counseling on the page or in her headcanon. I hope that's what she's saying.
Or maybe she *is* saying it's unrealistic for a relationship to work out in the end if it needs counseling, *which I think is whack* (I think it's more challenging, and there's a greater risk of it not working out if counseling is needed because the couple is on the rocks, if one or both won't do the work, but it doesn't spell doom, and if the couple is willing to get counseling and both work it, then they've got a good chance, IMO). In other words, I'd say it's not ideal to need relationship counseling (unless we are talking, like pre-wedding counseling or something like that, to make sure everyone's on the same page, that seems sensible to have regardless of how well the relationship seems to be going, IMO), because usually what brings a couple to the office is that something is going wrong in their relationship, and better to not have something be going that wrong, IMO, but if it all works out in the end, then that's a good thing rather than a bad thing. A challenge was overcome and hopefully the couple is stronger for it.
