The sixth season of "Game of Thrones" finally confirmed one of the oldest theories from "A Song of Ice and Fire". In the season finale, it was revealed that Jon Snow is actually the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen, making him a possible heir to the Iron Throne. But will "Game of Thrones" Season 7 debunk the truth behind Lyanna and Rhaegar's relationship?
It has long been believed -- seasons ahead of "Game of Thrones" Season 7 -- that Lyanna Stark was kidnapped by Rhaegar Targaryen. However, most fans argue that the two actually eloped and hid away in the Tower of Joy.
But whose idea was it run away in the first place? A new "Game of Thrones" theory suggests that Lyanna may have convinced Rhaegar to abandon his family when she became pregnant with Jon Snow.
'Game Of Thrones' Season 7 Theory: Lyanna Stark Made Rhaegar Targaryen Elope Over Jon Snow Pregnancy?
Lyanna Stark is hardly a shrinking violet, especially when her brother Ned Stark describes her as having the "wolf's blood". Because of her impulsiveness, some believe that Lyanna may have convince Rhaegar to run away with her when she became pregnant with Jon Snow. There are speculations that more details about their decision to elope will be revealed in "Game of Thrones" Season 7.
It is possible that Lyanna Stark acted impulsively after falling in love with Rhaegar Targaryen and becoming pregnant with the baby Jon Snow. The wolf maiden may have elected that the couple should run away together since Rhaegar is already married to Princess Elia Martell and Lyanna is bethrothed to Robert Baratheon. "Game of Thrones" Season 7 could reveal the truth about Lyanna and Rhaegar, especially since the character is expected to finally debut on the HBO series.

Although GamenGuide reported on the possibility that the "I See Stars" vocalist could portray Aegon Targaryen, it looks like Oliver could be the perfect Rhaegar Targaryen. Hopefully, the new season will reveal more about Jon Snow's parents.
