We ’re only two episodes into the final time of year ofGame of Thrones , and already we ’ve seen Jon Snow learn about his dependable parentage — and then bring out that game - changing choice morsel to Daenerys Targaryen ( who seemed oddlyunbotheredby the news ) . But what if we ’re about to take something about the true identity of yet another major character ?

Over the age , many fans have suppose that Tyrion Lannister is also a confidential Targaryen — and while some dismissed the idea once it was confirmed that Jon Snow is actually Aegon Targaryen , a couple of key moments in season 8 might be hinting that Tryion could indeed still have Targaryen rip .

Reddit usernisensegarbelieves Tyrion has discovered he ’s a Targaryen , which would explain why he has been acting a little strangely this season . The evidence to back up this theory come from three specific moments : When Tyrion was able set Daenerys ’s firedrake free without getting burned ; when he watched the door to the way in which Dany and Jon were make dear , as if he knew what was going on ; and his father , Tywin Lannister ’s , last words before Tyrion killed him being : “ You ’re no boy of mine . ” These pieces of potential evidence have been cited before in fan theory , but this Reddit exploiter conceive Tyrion ’s late behavior back the title as well .

All of these thing have seemingly been leading up to the most recent instalment when Bran Stark talk to Tyrion , which might have been him confirming his true identity . This would make sense , considering we did n’t actually witness their conversation — we just sleep together they had one .

“ A lot was note about Tyrion ’s intelligence and his challenged dedication , " the Redditor write " There is also an baleful , secretive shot of him in next calendar week ’s teaser give a side coup d’oeil , half - hold in . Very presentiment . ”

The Redditor also reference the final prospect in " A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms , " the most recent installment , which shows Jon and Daenerys , and then Tyrion . “ It ’s a very strange and wild family unit dynamic but as Sansa magnificently read : ‘ Families are complicated , ' " the post reason out .

give how popular the theory has become over the years , we ’re in question of its veracity . ( Showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss hate to be predictable . ) However , we ca n’t deny these clue . We ’ll hopefully witness out what Bran and Tyrion discourse , as well as why the latter has been acting so differently , in the get episodes .
