Rey's parents are none other than Dathan and Miramir. No, that's not a typo. Her dad's name is Dathan, which is at least slightly better than Sheev Palpatine.
Powerfully Force-sensitive, Rey trains to be a Jedi under siblings Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, and faces adversaries such as Kylo Ren, Supreme Leader Snoke and the resurrected Emperor Palpatine—who is revealed to be her grandfather in The Rise of Skywalker.
Rey was born on Hyperkarn in 15 ABY during the rise of the New Republic. Her father, Dathan, was a bioengineered Strand-Cast cloned from the genetic template of Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord who ruled the Galactic Empire as Emperor Palpatine.
The Last Jedi took the stance that Rey's parents were nobody, and while this may have been true from a certain point of view, The Rise of Skywalker gave us the true answer to Rey's parentage. In the film, we learned that Rey was a Palpatine, and her father was a clone of the infamous Sith Lord.
Affiliation(s) Zayne Skywalker was a force-sensitive Jedi Knight, and the son of Ben Solo and Rey Palpatine, a dyad in the force as the grandson of the Chosen One and the son of power force wielders, who became a legendary warrior and hero for the galaxy in the decades after the Battle of Exegol.
In Star Wars: The Last Jedi, we got an answer to the question of Rey's parents: they were nobodies.
Star Wars 9 ending: 'Rey is PREGNANT by Kylo Ren' in final scenes.
In The Rise of Skywalker, more develops about that story. After his confrontation with the phantom Emperor Palpatine, the new Supreme Leader learns that she is in fact the granddaughter of the Dark Lord of the Sith himself. And in a way is also his daughter. Rey's father was a genetic clone of the Emperor himself.
Rey (portrayed by Daisy Ridley) is the granddaughter of Sheev Palpatine/Darth Sidious through Dathan. Born on the planet Hyperkarn in 15 ABY, as a child in 21 ABY, Rey was abandoned by her parents on the planet Jakku to protect her from Sidious.
Although Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker concludes with Rey choosing the name of Skywalker and completing her path to becoming a Jedi, it's possible that she was actually the reincarnation of Anakin all along.
Rey, despite learning she's the granddaughter of Sheev Palpatine, chooses to call herself a Skywalker. It's her choice. She could have called herself anything. But rather than handcuff herself to her Palpatine bloodline, she decided to take the name of the heroes who came before her.
What is the connection between Kylo Ren and Rey? As Kylo Ren himself says in The Rise of Skywalker, he and Rey are bonded not just by their familial legacies (Ren as the grandson of Darth Vader and Rey as the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine) but by their unique connection in the Force.
So, as far as the canon goes, yes, Rey is considered a Skywalker. It's just like how any adopted child would be considered a member of the family that they were brought into. Depending on which Star Wars fan you ask, the identity of Rey will vary. Some would consider her a Palpatine because of her blood.
The weapon had a kyber crystal at its heart, and emitted a yellow-colored plasma blade when ignited. The emitter matrix on Rey's weapon featured a rotating gear-like mechanism, which caused the emitter of the lightsaber to open up and allow the plasma blade through.
Instead, he wants his granddaughter Rey to do it. Yes, Rey's destiny is finally revealed in The Rise of Skywalker, her origin story finally told: she is the daughter of Palpatine's unnamed son (played by Billy Howle). Rey is a Palpatine and the heir to her grandfather's Sith throne.
Rey is not a Skywalker by blood, as she is not related to the Skywalker family. However at the end of The Rise of Skywalker Luke and Princess Leia both appear to Rey as Force ghosts, and Rey claims the name Skywalker symbolically. So, whether or not you think Rey is a Skywalker depends on your outlook.
It is subsequently revealed that Palpatine had a son (who was his clone) whom he named Dathan, who renounced him; he and his wife, Miramir took their daughter Rey to the planet Jakku, assuming lives as "nobodies" to keep her safe.
In The Phantom Menace, when Qui-Gon Jinn meets tiny Anakin Skywalker and his mother, he goes on about how the Force is like, crazy strong with Anakin or whatever, and then asks his mother about Anakin's dad. Shmi Skywalker is pretty clear in her answer: There isn't a father. She was impregnated by the Force.
Miramir was a young human female who had blonde hair, brown eyes, and light skin. Like her husband, she loved Rey and was willing to risk death by hiding her daughter from Darth Sidious.
Rey is Anakin's half sister, and Palpatines relations to Rey through the force. Rey is a genetic experiment/force experiment of immaculate conception orchestrated by palpatine. So Rey is Palpatines daughter or grand daughter, in a metaphorical sense. The same way Anakin is Palpatines son through the force.
Rey is Han Solo's daughter. But she is not Leia Organa's daughter--and therefore is not a Skywalker. Leia and Han were estranged when she began training with Luke.
Ben Solo, son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, was once a promising Jedi apprentice taught by his uncle Luke Skywalker. But under the influence of the mysterious Snoke, Ben rejected Luke's teachings and destroyed his temple, leaving with several of his uncle's students and killing the rest.
The latest Star Wars reference book confirms Rey possesses a secret Force ability called psychometry. Rey is undoubtedly one of the most powerful Force-users in the galaxy. In part this is biological, because she is the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine himself.
She reconnected and fell in love with Anakin Skywalker after he was assigned to protect her from an assassination attempt, and secretly married him shortly after the Battle of Geonosis. Three years later, she reveals to Anakin that she is pregnant and plans to raise their child on Naboo.
