Not in A Scandal in Bohemia.

In SCAN, Irene falls in love with a lawyer she had hired named Godfrey Norton. He's an impetuous, excitable but well-mannered guy described as a "remarkably handsome man, dark, aquiline, and moustached". The two of them get married, with Holmes being a witness to the ceremony.

Any romantic relationship between Holmes and the former Prima Donna comes from other people's imaginations (and maybe the recent movies directed by Guy Ritchie).

It is made to appear as though she died, however it is not directly confirmed. After all, if she did, there certainly wasn't much fuss over the death of a major character. It said she exhibited signs of a rare form of tuberculosis from the poisoning, not that it killed her.

Sherlock Holmes quickly tosses the ashes from his pipe into Professer James Moriarty's face, grabs him, then jumps off his brother's castle taking Moriarty with him.

However Holmes survives and puts on one of his funny looking disguises and waits for Watson to take the "bait" and types a question mark after the end. No he didn't die, but, for Moriarty, it remains a mystery to me.

Why did Sherlock Holmes admire Irene Adler?

'To Sherlock Holmes she is always THE woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his cold, precise, but admirably balanced mind.' -- John Watson, 'A Scandal in Bohemia' "I only caught a glimpse of her at the moment, but she was a lovely woman, with a face that a man might die for." -- Sherlock Holmes, 'A Scandal in Bohemia' 'He used to make merry over the cleverness of women, but I have not heard him do it of late. And when he speaks of Irene Adler, or when he refers to her photograph, it is always under the honourable title of THE woman.' -- John Watson, 'A Scandal in Bohemia' "I have been beaten four times - three times by men and once by a woman." -- Sherlock Holmes, 'The Five Orange Pips'


Who was the protagonist in Sherlock Holmes?

What was Sherlock's lady friend's name?

Sherlock Holmes said ". . . the motives of women are so inscrutable." There's only one woman he truly respected. Her name was Irene Adler and she outsmarted him. Also, he always stated he would never let emotions compromise his work, and certainly not love. He never married or even felt something for a girl.


Did Sherlock Holmes have a wife or girlfriend?

Sherlock Holmes never married. But he was certainly respectful of Irene Adler's abilities and admired her. Holmes "never spoke of the softer passions, save with a gibe and a sneer." Holmes preferred a life of pure intellect, devoid of emotion. As to Irene Adler -- the only woman to beat Holmes -- he would never use her name and referred to her only as "The woman". She married Godfrey Norton with Holmes in disguise as a witness.in the second movie "the game of shadows" she dies as professor James kills her when he thinks that she can be of no use to him


Does Sherlock love molly?

While he showed great affection for Dr. Watson, he had only one love. Irene Adler earned his respect and admiration. He always referred to her as 'the woman.' "It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his cold, precise, but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen: but, as a lover, he would have placed himself in a false position." -- John Watson, 'A Scandal In Bohemia'

Several official sources and books say Holmes fell in love with Irene Adler. Was he in love with her?

Some people like to believe he was, but the answer is no. Even if you disregard Watson's denial of it, Holmes says in a later story that he has never loved. Beyond that, the two barely knew each other, and Holmes is not someone to fall in love or form an emotional connection so quickly. He respected her because she outsmarted him but felt nothing more, and she was in love with (and did marry) someone else.

Holmes's birthday is generally accepted as January 6th 1854, this date is not actually recorded in Sir Arthur's documents and he is believed to be British. There is no mention of Sherlock Holmes' birthplace in any of Conan Doyle's writings. We only know that Holmes came "up to London," which means he moved to London from elsewhere.
