Game Of Thrones: 10 Theories On Who Will Kill Cersei Lannister

1. Jaime Lannister

Cersei is very much aware of the valonqar prophecy, and believes it to be her own little brother. Yet while she is convinced it's Tyrion, she totally overlooks the fact that technically she has two 'little' brothers, as Jaime may be her twin, but was actually born after her. Mention has been made before of how the two will leave the world together, just like they came into it. It may be that the end of Jaime comes with the end of Cersei. Furthermore, there's the fact that all of those children Cersei has lost, Jaime has lost too. If he blames her for the death of his children, then he may well want to kill her. Indeed, the two have already drifted apart considerably compared to how close they were earlier in the series. Jaime returns to King's Landing, finding all of his children are dead, Cersei's lies and actions have poisoned everything, and he chokes the life out of her, using a combination of his good hand and his gold one (although it'd be much more poetic to just use the gold one, I don't think it's actually capable of being made to choke someone on its own). It may well depend on what happens with his storyline a bit further North, and indeed Brienne and certain other characters could feature prominently in this arc, but it'd be a fitting end to their story (although I'm still rooting for CleganeBowl, because hype!). Who do you think will be the one to wrap their hands around Cersei's throat? Share your thoughts and theories down in the comments.
