One of the biggest questions of Game of Thrones lore is who Jon Snow\'s mother is, but if you\'re really into it, you know that it\'s not just a question of who his mother is, it\'s his father too. Any self-respecting fan will tell you that there\'s no way Ned Stark is Jon\'s dad, though that\'s how he was raised — and what we have been led to believe. While the truth of his parentage has not been revealed in George R. R. Martin\'s books yet, there is one prevailing fan theory of who Jon Snow\'s parents are. Previous seasons of the show haven\'t given up much to confirm it, but season five has actually had a host of little hints that this major theory is true. While none of this counts as spoilers because it hasn\'t happened in the books or on the show, this is where you should stop reading if you want to remain in the dark. For everyone else, let\'s get into the theory and how this season has all but confirmed it . . . even though he may or may not be gone.
