Kept secret was the fact that Leia was born to Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi who succumbed to the dark side and became Darth Vader. She was one of a set of twins, born in secrecy and protected from Vader and the Emperor.
Anakin Skywalker is the son of Shmi Skywalker, born without a father through the Force. He is the secret husband of Padmé Amidala, the father of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, the father-in-law of Han Solo, and the maternal grandfather of Ben Solo.
Darth Vader may have never known Princess Leia was his daughter in Star Wars and never cultivated a relationship with her, even when he was a Force ghost. Anakin Skywalker never knew Padmé was pregnant with twins, and he believed his child had died with his wife.
This is not because the Third Sister knows that Leia is Anakin Skywalker's child; it is because the Third Sister found a link between Obi-Wan and Bail Organa and she believed Obi-Wan would do anything to save Bail's daughter.
In Return of the Jedi (1983), Leia helps in the operation to rescue Han from the crime lord Jabba the Hutt and is revealed to be Vader's daughter and the twin sister of Luke Skywalker.
However, Leia's strong-mindedness during Vader's probe denied him the opportunity to discover she was his daughter. That serves to justify Vader's lack of awareness of his connection to Leia, although, perhaps, not as satisfyingly as if Lucas had planned for the relationship from the beginning.
It was common knowledge that Leia was adopted into the Royal Family of Alderaan, raised by Senator Bail Organa and the Queen of Alderaan. Kept secret was the fact that Leia was born to Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi who succumbed to the dark side and became Darth Vader.
The Third Sister was at the Jedi Temple during Order 66. She either saw Anakin kill her fellow Jedi or saw the recording of his crimes. That's why she has such hatred for Obi-Wan. She was a Padawan who escaped Order 66.
Seething with ambition, Reva hunts down Jedi survivors of Order 66 as an Inquisitor. She wears the sleek armor of the secret order, and brandishes a unique lightsaber that can split in two to maximize her lethality.
Vader learned that Leia was his daughter by sensing it from Luke in Return of the Jedi.
The reason Darth Vader could sense Obi-Wan and Luke was because of how they actively used the Force several times throughout the Original Trilogy. Vader never sensed Leia because she didn't the Force; Leia did not even know she had Force powers to begin with.
She figured out her mother's identity after Return of the Jedi, when she learned she was the daughter of Anakin Skywalker; it didn't take Leia long to connect the dots between Anakin and the senator of Naboo he had spent so much time with during the Clone Wars, who died under mysterious circumstances on the day Leia ...
The Chosen One was revealed to be Anakin Skywalker, who conceived by the Force itself via the mystical one-celled organisms called midi-chlorians completely without outside influence.
Leia and Han had three children, and they named their youngest son Anakin after Anakin Skywalker, Leia's biological father. Since Luke was the twin to spend more time with Obi-Wan in the old canon, it made sense that he, not Leia, was the one to honor Obi-Wan when naming his child.
Luke, meanwhile, married a woman named Mara Jade, an assassin who previously served Emperor Palpatine. The couple had one son, a Jedi named Ben Skywalker, whose descendants would go own to have Jedi adventures in their own times.
In the Star Wars film franchise, Obi-Wan does not have a known brother. However, he almost did. In the original Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi screenplay, Obi-Wan did have a brother, and it was none other than Owen Lars (Joel Edgerton)—Luke Skywalker's step-uncle and Anakin's step-brother.
You'll be surprised to hear that in the original screenplay for "Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi," Obi-Wan does have a brother, and it's none other than Luke Skywalker's uncle, Owen Lars. This detail never made it to the film's final cut, but it was still included in the movie's novelization.
The short story was published on the official Star Wars website in 2015 and revealed that Obi-Wan's brother “Owen” is actually just a vision from the future. The short story gives Obi-Wan an origin by confirming he was born on the planet Stewjon, and then taken to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant for his training.
Reva knows that Anakin Skywalker is Darth Vader because she was one of his targets—a child—during the Order 66 killings that took place during the events of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
Reva Sevander, better known as the Third Sister, is the secondary antagonist of the 2022 Disney+ Star Wars miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi. She was a Jedi youngling who survived Order 66 and fell to the dark side of the Force, joining the Galactic Empire by becoming part of the Inquisitorius.
Prior to the rise of Emperor Palpatine, Sevander held the rank of Jedi Initiate during her time in the Jedi Order. Ambitious and reckless, the Third Sister quickly rose through the ranks of the Inquisitorius despite being ostracized and distrusted by the other Inquisitors.
Padme and Anakin's love story is a central point of the prequel Star Wars trilogy and Padme certainly proved her love many times. The relationship and marriage between Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala makes up a key component of the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy and Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
