I think in the book she actually had an abortion - they just said she gave birth on the show.

I think so.

Maybe I am thinking of the wrong TV show, but didn't someone find the Baratheon heir living in a village making swords? No idea what happened to him other than being found. Really, it could be the wrong show, not sure I am smart enough to keep up with the 100 characters in GoT.


That's Gendry, who is not Cersei's child.

Cersei had a child by Baratheon who died young -- chldhood infancy.

The question is whether Maergary has given up on her brother still perhaps rotting in the dungeon. Interesting how sisters in GoT remain strong under oppression. In the cases of Lancil and Theon, who are both broken, their sisters are the ones who remain strong and attempt to rescue them.


Hasn't Cersei lost 3 children already? She told Catelyn Stark that she had a brown haired baby that died at birth. That would be 3 already, no?


The witch (in the show) told her that her three kids would wear a golden crown and a golden shroud. Sounds like Tommen will die.

Died at birth? Or she didn't want to raise a Baratheon?

Why must 90% of the fathers on this show be pure evil?


I wouldn't call him pure evil any more than Cersei. I think that the male and female characters have different ways of exerting their power and control over their children.

When it comes to pure evil I think Ramsey and Joffrey even more than I think of the White Walkers.


Well, I was thinking specifically of the fathers. Tywin, Pops Tarwell, Walder Frey, Pops Greyjoy -- they are all awful.
