HBO Reveals Jon Snow’s Father with this Infographic of Game of Thrones Characters

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones Season 6 (and beyond).

Well, cat’s out of the bag.

After Game of Thrones Season 6 wrapped up last weekend, the buzz about the show—and the endless theories surrounding it—has all but died down. One of the show’s biggest theories?

Jon Snow’s parentage. But of course with the season 6 finale, we finally get half an answer to that question.

Lyanna Stark, Ned Stark’s sister, is Jon Snow’s real parent. But who is the father?

Fans are saying that it’s Rhaegar Targaryen (Daenerys’ older brother) as Lyanna was abducted by him. And this infographic just released by HBO showing the connections between the shows characters certainly confirms that theory.

Look at the rest of the graphic here:
