Re: Sherlock Holmes canon vs fanon

It's a grey area. There's a LOT of little hints, but that's of course somewhat subjective. As far as explicit expressions go, Holmes was openly upset and disapproving about Watson's decision to marry (at the end of The Sign of Four he groans at the announcement, said that marrying destroys the ability to reason impartially, explicitly tells Watson that he will not congratulate him, and then caps it off by saying that at least he still has his cocaine to console him, with his phrasing implying that cocaine is all that is left for him now that the case is finished and Watson is leaving). Also, he describes Watson's second marriage with the phrase "Watson had at that time abandoned me for a wife, the only selfish action of his I can recall" (paraphrased).

Mary Morstan was a central figure in The Sign of Four (and she was pretty awesome too, IMO), but only appeared with dialogue in a couple of other stories. No one knows anything about Watson's second wife except that he married her at around the turn of the century.
