She also knows
Leia didn't see Obi-Wan again, nor did she experience any sadness when she learned of his death. In pairing Obi-Wan with Leia in his Disney+ series, the show was able to explore a bond between two Star Wars icons that didn't already exist in canon.
Theory 1: Leia Doesn't Remember Ben Is Obi-Wan
Throughout her encounters with Kenobi in the series, he refers to himself as Ben. The most straightforward explanation would be that Leia knows the person who rescued her is Ben, and never connected the dots that Ben is actually Obi-Wan.
Leia at 10 years old is fearless, stubborn and wise beyond her years. It's easy to see how this child will grow into the leader “Star Wars” fans have long known. And as Obi-Wan spends time with young Leia, he can't help but note how much she reminds him of her parents.
In episode two, Leia reminds Obi-Wan of someone "fearless and stubborn" that he used to know. Not a Jedi, but "a leader." Kenobi is of course talking about Padmé Amidala, Leia's biological mother, but she doesn't realise that at this point.
A Skywalker by blood, Leia Organa is known to be Force sensitive.
Key details in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series connect to the original Star Wars movies, hinting Darth Vader knew and ignored Leia was his daughter.
For Leia to name her son Ben Solo is the greatest honor, with Obi-Wan's memory able to live on in someone she loves. It is a sweet and moving gesture, and it retroactively addresses the questions that lingered around the Ben Solo name. After all, why name your child after someone who was important to someone else?
The reason Leia likely remembers Padmé is that she could sense her mother's emotions at the time of the senator's passing. Luke didn't possess the same ability as his sister and inherited their father's Force potential. This links with Luke's desire to follow Anakin's Jedi path.
Leia doesn't get to reunite with Obi-Wan, and instead, just before escaping with Han and Luke, she sees his murder. Of course, Leia doesn't know Darth Vader is her father yet, either in A New Hope and certainly not in Obi-Wan Kenobi. But for the most part, the narrative focus of A New Hope is on Luke.
Darth Vader didn't learn he had a daughter until Return of the Jedi, when he stood before Emperor Palpatine. The Emperor's power probed Luke's mind, attempting to goad him to fall to the dark side, and he discovered Leia's existence.
Due to her powerful Force heritage, Leia, following her family's legacy, became a Jedi Knight in the New Jedi Order. She was partially trained by her brother Luke and later by Jedi Master Saba Sebatyne, who declared her a fully trained Knight at the end of the Swarm War.
"General Kenobi, years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars," Leia tells him. "Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire." She had been on her way to relay the message in person, but failed when Darth Vader intercepted her passage. Her message ends: "This is our most desperate hour.
Leia does not seem to react to tragedy. Instead, she has this wonderful ability to stay perfectly alert, reasonable, and careful of the feelings of others. She witnessed the destruction of her entire planet, and still had the mental and emotional strength to escape with Luke and Obi-Wan.
How does the Third Sister know about Luke and Leia? Reva explained that she discovered a connection between Bail and Obi-Wan in the archives. She doesn't realize that Leia is Vader's daughter. Reva does attempt to use the Force to peer into Leia's mind when she kidnaps her again.
Han Solo marries Princess Leia and they have three children: twins named Jacen and Jaina, and a younger son named Anakin. Luke reestablishes the Jedi Order, marries a non-movie (but fan favorite) redheaded Force-wielder named Mara Jade, and they have a son, Ben Skywalker (named in honor of Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi).
Overview. After her death in childbirth on Polis Massa, Amidala's body was returned to Naboo for the proper funeral rites. In order to hide the fact that Amidala's twins survived, her body was prepared to still appear pregnant.
Senator Padmé Amidala of the planet Naboo became pregnant during the Clone Wars with her husband, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, as the father. She gave birth to twins, Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa.
The mystery of Rey's parents was kept secret for years, and Star Wars actor Daisy Ridley revealed the original idea was to have Obi-Wan as her father. For several years, Rey's heritage was the biggest question within the Star Wars fandom.
Initially unknown to Ben, Rey forms a dyad in the Force with him. The dyad is an unbreakable Force-bond that makes them one in the Force, despite being born as two physically separated individuals. Thus, despite not being related by blood, Rey is Ben's other half, making her his "soulmate" or "twin of the Force".
His birth was prophesied as early as 1000 BBY by a Jedi Master. Originally, Anakin was to be named Han Solo Jr. after his father, but his mother, Leia decided to name the boy after his maternal grandfather, Anakin Skywalker.
In contrast, Vader was able to sense his personal connection to Luke Skywalker almost immediately. This raises a question as to how he could detect his relationship with one character but not the other. The short answer is that creator George Lucas had no idea Leia would end up becoming Darth Vader's daughter.
First excerpt from The Princess and the Scoundrel features Luke telling Leia about Anakin's redemption after Return of the Jedi. In Return of the Jedi, Luke Skywalker reveals to Leia Organa that they are siblings, and that Darth Vader is their father.
