If fans of Game Of Thrones are now impatiently waiting for season 2 of House of the Dragon, they remain a little frustrated by the fact that many theories about their favorite series have not been resolved. Tyrion Lannister, magnificently played by Peter Dinklage, is affected by several of them. The most important, and certainly also the most plausible, is that Tywin’s son (Charles Dance) is not in fact a Lannister. If the old man kept repeating that Tyrion “was not his son”, in order to remind him how much he hated him, this could also be the truth. According to a fan theory, Tyrion would actually be a member of the Targaryen family.
Is Tyrion Lannister the son of Joanna Lannister and Aerys II Targaryen?
In the original novels A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin, it is written that Joanna Lannister, Tywin’s wife, was one of Aerys II Targaryen’s favorites.

And I raised you as my son.

The laws of men give you the right to bear my name and display my colors, since I cannot prove that you “You’re not mine.”
Can Tyrion master Daenerys’ dragons?
Another clue that could suggest that Tyrion is indeed a Targayren. It’s about her dangerous encounter with two of Daenerys’ dragons. While it had locked Viserion and Rhaegal, Tyrion decides to free them from their chains. And the dragons spare his life, a feat that few people have achieved before him. If Daenerys is the queen of dragons, the only other character in the series who can boast of having tamed them is Jon Snow who is, in reality, a Targaryen too. So this could prove that this is also the case for Tyrion. However, neither the books nor the series have decided on this subject.
