Game of Thrones Season 8 preview: Cersei Lannister's unborn child could be the key to peace with the White Walkers

At the end of season 7, we see Cersei reveal her unborn child to Jaime, if the manipulative Queen is not lying, her new spawn could be key to ending the war with the White Walkers

'Game of Thrones' takes a viewer through so many twists and turns, that even the most implausible theories start to glimmer with some line of truth behind them. Most of the theories that come into light these days revolve around Cersei Lannister, the conquering Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and it's not for no reason Cersei makes her way into the spotlight.

Cersei has been one of the most controversial characters since the inception of the 'Game of Thrones' series back in April of 2011. It's not only because of her incest-loving, war-mongering or massacre-fueling tendencies that Cersei has been one of the most hated characters on 'Game of Thrones'; her sheer will to harm and completely obliterate anyone who stands in her way without so much as batting an eyelid, is downright disturbing, even in a gore-friendly show like 'Game of Thrones'.
