15. Will Cersei Have Her Child?

Cersei dropped a bombshell in Season 7, revealing that she is pregnant - something seemingly confirmed by the script for The Dragon and the Wolf. Assuming this is true, then, there's the question of whether or not Cersei is actually going to have the child.

It's an awful thought but, well, Westeros is an awful world, and the Season 8 trailer hinted at something being rather amiss with Cersei as she took a sip of wine (something she refused to do in Season 7 because of being pregnant). Maybe that's misdirection, maybe she realises the end is near and time is too short to not drink wine, or maybe it hints at tragedy for another of her children.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
