Red's Secret Identity Revealed: Not Lady Rohanne Webber!
23 Feb
Summary
- Red secretly married Ser Raymun Fossoway after a tournament.
- The quick marriage occurred because Raymun believed Red was pregnant.
- Showrunner confirms Red is not Lady Rohanne Webber but is iconic.
The identity of the character known as Red in "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" has been definitively revealed. Contrary to speculation, Red is not Lady Rohanne Webber, but rather Lady Rowan Fossoway.
This significant revelation came to light in the Season 1 finale, detailing events that transpired off-screen. Red married Ser Raymun Fossoway shortly after a tournament. The expediency of their marriage was due to Ser Raymun mistakenly believing Red was pregnant after a single night together.
Showrunner Ira Parker elaborated on the narrative choices, explaining that the backstory was created to flesh out character motivations. Ser Raymun, feeling triumphant after a Trial of Seven, met Red. Their subsequent encounter led to Red informing Raymun of a supposed pregnancy, prompting his sincere proposal.
Parker further noted that this origin story, where the Fossoway lineage began with a squire and a prostitute, adds depth to the characters, even if only glimpsed through Dunk's perspective. This narrative element, approved by George R.R. Martin, was considered fun and hopeful, establishing Lady Rowan Fossoway as a new, iconic figure.
