Newt Scamander remained his caring attitude towards Leta many years after their parting, and eventually fell in love with her. He kept a framed photograph of her in the work shed inside his magically-expanded suitcase during his travels.
Leta actress Zoë Kravitz was quoted as saying she played Bellatrix's great-great-aunt. However, there's little evidence for that. Born as Bellatrix Black, Bellatrix married into the Lestrange family, meaning she and Leta aren't related by blood.
In the first film, a framed picture of Leta Lestrange is found in Newt's suitcase. Leta is revealed as an old love of Newt's, and he's still hung up on her.
They were close friends in the wake of not having anyone else. Through it all, even thru her engagement to his brother, Leta still loves Newt. When she's about to attack Grindelwald, she turns and ambiguously says "I love you" at such an angle that it could be to Newt or Theseus.

Does Newt love Tina or Leta?
First, Newt met Tina Goldstein - who is missing from Fantastic Beasts 3 - in New York, and the two had a mutual, yet awkward, attraction towards each other. However, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald introduced Leta Lestrange, Newt's childhood best friend, and first love.
Leta Lestrange was bullied by several students in her school years due to gossip and the awareness of her half brother's death. She was an outcast, and she responded with a dark charm once. She became the one to blame because she lashed out to defend herself. Points were taken from her house.
Throughout the film, Leta hints that she has a horrible, dark past involving her dead brother. Eventually, it's revealed that when she was a child living in London, her father sent her and her brother away to America. The ship they were on sank and her infant brother perished – and that ship, was the Titanic.
Bellatrix is a Lestrange by marriage to Rodolphus Lestrange, a fellow Death Eater who has a Death Eater brother, Rabastan. All three of them were confined to Azkaban for the torture of Neville Longbottom's parents.
Newt Scamander was only mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone as the author of the book Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, which was used as a textbook for Care of Magical Creatures by Harry Potter and his classmates.
Mason Riddle is the Son of Tom Marvalo Riddle, otherwise known as Lord Voldemort, and the only American student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Narcissa "Cissy" Malfoy (née Black) (b. 1955) was a British pure-blood witch and a member of the noble House of Black. She was the youngest daughter of Cygnus and Druella Black and the younger sister of Bellatrix Lestrange and Andromeda Tonks. She married Lucius Malfoy and they had a son: Draco Malfoy.
She married Rodolphus Lestrange after leaving Hogwarts "because it was expected of her" to marry a pure-blood. However, Rowling stated in an interview that Bellatrix truly loved Voldemort.
Examining Newt Scamander's social interactions, sensory sensitivities, and special interests and routines offers valuable insights into his character. While some argue that these traits align with autism, it is important to note that the character's creators have not explicitly confirmed his autism spectrum diagnosis.
Leta Lestrange was simply the last member of her own particular branch of the Lestrange line. There were other members of the family who were more distantly related to her. In book 6, Slughorn mentions a Lestrange as one of Tom Riddle's friends at Hogwarts in the 1930s-40s.
They are from different families. Though Queenie might be related to Anthony Goldstein. Yeah, there are some similarities between them like they both were half blood and what u said but they are not related in any way. Also, Queenie was a naturally born legillimen while Snape had acquired that skill.
The couple had at least one child, through whom they had a grandson, Rolf Scamander, who married Luna Lovegood, and through whom Tina and Newt had two known great-grandsons, Lorcan and Lysander.
Quentin Kowalski may be a descendant of Jacob and Queenie Goldstein, though this would breach Rappaport's Law. Queenie and Jacob would need to have left the United States of America to marry as to protect Queenie from prosecution.
She knows Newt always understood her, saw her good, even if she may not even see it in herself. Fourthly, during her death scene she turned to both Newt and Theseus. She turns to both and says, "I love you." We are left not knowing if she meant it for Theseus or Newt or both.
Leta Lestrange, a friend of Newt's from their school years, had become his fiancée. Theseus was going to marry her on 6 June, 1928, and Newt was supposed to be their best man.
As the title notes, the Credence twist was the perfect setup for Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore. It's revealed in the film that Credence is Aberforth Dumbledore's long-lost son, which worked perfectly for the Harry Potter canon and the Fantastic Beasts franchise as a whole.
Leta Lestrange sacrifices herself in order to destroy the skull-hookah, which suggests that Grindelwald may rely on the skull in order to make prophecies. It does seem in keeping with Grindelwald's personality to collect powerful magical objects, like he does with the Elder Wand.
But Leta Lestrange's boggart is her brother drowning. How is that her worst fear? Dumbledore's boggart was his sister's dead body, but that was because his worst fear was that he was the one directly responsible for her death. Leta already blamed herself for being responsible for Corvus's death.
