But did the Tower of Joy scene in “Game of Thrones” Season 6 Episode 3 offer a hint about Jon Snow’s parentage?

Although many fans were likely happy to see Thorne go, what they may not realize is he was one of a dwindling number of characters who have been on the show from the first episode.
The “Game of Thrones” scene revealed how they managed to defeat the Sword of the Morning.
However, one particular fan theory has got us more than a little excited and hopeful – what if Rickon, Osha, Shaggydog and the Umber house are laying a trap for Ramsey, and Shaggydog isn’t really dead? Unfortunately, the Three-Eyed Raven didn’t allow Bran to stick around and find out what happens afterwards. Because this is Thrones – where there’s a fan theory for almost every plot line – there were those who believed that the decapitated dog head Smalljon Umber plopped down in front of Ramsay Bolton belonged to a different beast.
Jon Snow is back, and besides being a little bit emo, he seems normal as hell.
Kit’s character Jon Snow in the hit fantasy TV show was stabbed multiple times and left for dead in the finale of its fifth season.
The actress, who was convinced that his character Jon Snow had been killed off, chose to pen a farewell note to her co-star on what she thought was his last day on set. He writes, “From S6E3, Bran realises that others can hear him during the visions from the past, but doesn’t understand that they cannot fully understand him”.
Turns out, like the rest of us, Sophie Turner had no idea that Jon Snow was coming back for season six.

Game of Thrones season 6 continues this Sunday, May 15. He saw Ned Stark facing off with the King’s guards when he goes there to rescue his sister Lyanna Stark. Rhaegar publicly showed interest in Lyanna when he won the tournament at Harrenhall and crowned not his wife Elia Martel, but Lyanna Stark “the queen of love and beauty”. We now know that Meera’s father was witness to this event and she may have been told the truth of what happens next perhaps if Bran reveals this vision to her. His new friendship with Olenna Tyrell and his “no nonsense” attitude toward his niece is probably bad news for Cersei but good for the Tyrell siblings and potentially the kingdom.
