(Spoiler Alert: Do not keep reading if you did not see the Season 6 Finale of “Game of Thrones”)
As Daenerys prepares to invade Westeros, she will have to choose a Lord to rule with her as King. Which of these men could actually end up on the Iron Throne?
Tyrion Lannister
Although not technically the lord of anything, Tyrion has earned Daenerys’ respect and trust. He is also a capable and fair ruler, as we have already seen. Marrying him would also help quell potential backlash by showing Dany was willing to forgive his family’s past transgressions
Jaime Lannister
With Tywin dead, Jaime is technically Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West. And with Cersei crowing herself queen, he is the de facto king already. And like with Tyrion, it would be a good political move
Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish
This blood-curdling union actually makes a lot of sense. Baelish has made himself Lord of Harrenhal and Lord Protector of The Vale, meaning he wields considerable influence in Westeros. Let’s hope instead that Dany feeds him to the dragons.
Jorah Mormont
Dany sent Jorah on a quest to cure his greyscale. If he finds one and is able to fight by her side to take the Iron Throne, his love for her, good counsel, and noble blood make him a wise choice
Jon Snow
Jon Snow is now The King in the North, and he and Dany will need to pair up anyway to fight the White Walkers. Granted, we just learned she is his aunt, but that sort of thing has never stopped anyone on this show
Theon Greyjoy
Theon is the rightful heir to the Iron Islands, although he supports his sister Yara’s claim to the throne. And given his (lack) of certain body parts, Dany would be free to continue on with Daario in order to secure an heir
Gendry
The bastard from Flea Bottom is tough and is the only remaining son of Robert Barratheon. Although he is bastard, Dany could reverse that by royal decree. And as with Tyrion and Jaime, the marriage would show people she is putting aside old grudges
Yara Greyjoy
They absolutely had some kind of chemistry when they met. You know what we mean. And Yara is poised to rule the Iron Islands, so this progressive union is possible
Robin Arryn
Although Littlefinger rules in The Vale, it is technically this longtime breastfeeder who is Lord of that particular kingdom. Something tells us Dany won’t be walking down the aisle with him just yet
The Night King
Talk about a power couple. They would take over the Seven Kingdoms with ease. But their personalities are just too fire and ice
Edmure Tully
He is technically Lord of Riverrun, which makes him Lord of The Riverlands as well. And with Walder Frey dead, it will be better for the people to rally around a Tully than another Frey
Daario Naharis
This scoundrel from across the sea may not be a lord, but he did manage to steal Dany’s heart once before. Just maybe he could do it again
Nobody
Who says she can’t just be a committed bachelorette? It would be a very “Game of Thrones” thing to do.
