Biography
According to her daughter, Mrs. Lovegood was an extraordinary witch who liked to experiment with spells. One day in 1990, one of her spell experiments went wrong, killing her in front of Luna, who was subsequently able to see Thestrals. Her death was apparently very gory

Luna told Harry Potter that she continued to feel sad about her mother's death for time to time, and believed that she would see her again after death.

Luna has a picture of her and her mother hugging in her room at home. In the picture, she is described as looking very much like her daughter. Many years after her death, Mrs. Lovegood would gain grandchildren in Lorcan and Lysander Scamander, the sons of Luna and Rolf Scamander.
