The person to blame for Romeo and Juliet’s is Friar Laurence. He is the one to blame for three reasons. The three reasons are he married them, he planned for Juliet to fake her own death, and he didn’t tell Romeo that Juliet’s death was fake. To begin with, Friar Laurence is to blame for Romeo and Juliet’s death because he married them knowing that their families were rivals. In the text, it states that Friar Laurence says “To turn your households’ rancor to pure love”, he is thinking that marrying the two would bring peace to both families because two of the children were married.
