It's more a meme than truth. The "black mold" picture is of wallpaper and like much online gumshoeing it's sourced by people piling on an allegation without any bearing in fact.
JK Rowling's bigotry has nothing to do with her McMansion's state of repair. It's the standard English brain worms that every rich person in her social club develops.
I believe the headline but what an awful article. They just link to the post about the mold and do no research on what wallpaper it could be. These articles are turning into ChatGPT summaries of conversations on Twitter.
Some redditor said to find this video:

where they believe they see a tree wallpaper.
So whatever broke JK was arguably not mold. Cold black heart…
It was like this before ChatGPT. I'm sure that ChatGPT makes it a lot easier, though.
I mean, that article doesnt provide any proof that its wallpaper, and that would be some ugly-ass wallpaper if it is. Who would ever put that in a house? Also theres no discernable repeating pattern to it, though maybe we just cant see enough.
It also doesn’t provide any proof that it’s black mold either, so we should go with the more reasonable explanation, which is that we have a less than stellar quality image of what is most likely just wallpaper or whatever.
For instance, I’m assuming this is zoom because it looks like she has “touchup my appearance“ on. That filter could easily have messed with the wall behind her as well.
Lots of possible answers here.
Never even knew about the mold. Just thought the idea was funny. 😅
