House of The Dragon sees the Targaryen dynasty at the peak of its culture. This means weddings between themselves in order to keep the bloodline pure so they can train the dragons. With the show inching towards its end, with the last episode airing next week, fans are curious to know who is Aemond Targaryen married to. We see that his elder brother Aegon has married their sister Haelena Targaryen. This leaves him no choice but to marry outside the family. But who did he ultimately marry in the end because right now, the man is single as hell? Let us now explore the timeline of events that we have seen him in the show.
Aemond was involved in a huge drama back in episode 7 when his eye was cut. We know that he is the only Targaryen among the kids who do not have a dragon yet. Desperate, we see him going down to the dragon pit in order to see the mighty beasts, but when they screech after looking at him, he went back. Aemond has been raised according to the Targaryen customs and norms in the Red Keep and thus, knows how to speak High Valyrian as well. This makes him worthy of becoming a dragon rider because the creatures do not understand English, but the Targaryen’s mother tongue, Valyrian.
How Did Aemond Claim Vhagar?
Back in episode 7 when Lady Laena Velaryon is dead and her family including Daemon has returned from Pentos to attend the funeral at Driftmark along with Ser Laenor and Rhaenyra from Dragon Stone and the Royal family from the Red Keep. Vhagar is unclaimed and is left for Laena’s daughter Baela or Rhaella to claim. Given the fact that they are still not over the death of their mother, the little girls do not hurry in claiming the largest dragon in Westeros. Well, someone else was in hurry and that was Aemond.
Aemond went on to claim the dragon for himself but when he came back to the castle, the black kids caught and cornered him. In the meantime, Lucerys slashed his one eye open for attacking his cousins. The maestors sewed the crack up but that did not mean Aemond will be able to see everything again from the eye. Well, there was a whole lot of chaos in the room but we got to know one thing for sure Aemond lost and eye hut gained a dragon.
Now fast forward to episode 9 where we saw him recently, it is obvious that he thinks of himself more worthy than his elder brother and fit to rule the Iron Throne and he is right. Well, it is not his birthright and thus, that does not happen. Well, there is one thing that Aemond is and that is an excellent dragon rider. He has a passion for the sport and loves his dragon more than anything in the world. Now, to understand more about his personal life apart from the kingdom and the realm, who does he eventually marry?
Who is Aemond Married To?
Aemond is married to Alys Rivers or rather rumored to be. If you can remember, the surname Rivers is given to the children who are bastards in the Riverlands just like Snow is given to the ones in Winterfell. Alys is written to be a servant of the House Strong but also is magical with witch powers. Aemond and Alys have a son together but there are no claims of him to the Iron Throne.
Although, you guys should know that this information is not official because, in the books, Aemond does not marry anyone. Given the fact that Alys is a bastard within the House Strong, it would make her the sister of Ser Larys Strong and an aunt to Rhaenyra’s children. Well, we can just hope for Alys to be introduced in the show by Larys, and then for Aemond and her to be married.
