House Of Dragon season 2 revealed that Alicent Hightower had a physical relationship with Ser Criston Cole.
Olivia Cooke, a renowned actress who comes from a family of non-actors, plays Alicent Hightower’s role in House of Dragons.
Highlights
- Doubt was created towards Alicent’s virtue that she gave her maidenhead to Daemon.
- Rumors circulated that Daemon had taken all queen-level women’s virginity, including Alicent.
- No credible sources are available to prove that Alicent and Daemon had a relationship.
Alicent Hightower is the daughter of Ser Otto Hightower, the King’s Hand. Her eldest brother’s name is Ser Gwayne Hightower.
Hightower loved the Red Keep and was raised among the royal family early on.
She is the second wife of King Viserys I Targaryen, the fifth king of the Targaryen dynasty to rule the seven kingdoms.
However, House of Dragon season 2 premiered exclusively on June 16 at 9 p.m.
Rumors Circulated That Alicent Hightower Had A Relationship With Daemon Targaryen
There is a rumor that Alicent and Daemon Targaryen had a relationship, which makes sense to assume that it was the case since it would explain why Otto grew to dislike Daemon.
The Daemon’s relationship describes why Otto grew to hate Daemon; one assumes that he would have let them feel that he considered Alicent and her father as nothing but an ambitious point.
I'm not ready to see misogynists blaming her for what men have forced her to do, manipulating and abusing her since she was a child throughout her life, forcing her to make questionable decisions to survive. I’m with Alicent Hightower. #HouseoftheDragon #hotd pic.twitter.com/mlRj2B84Rn

Some cast have doubted Lady Alicent’s virtue, suggesting she had given her maidenhead to Prince Daemon and later welcomed King Versys into her bed even before Queen Aemma’s passing.
There is a rumor that Daemon had taken almost all the queen-level women’s virginity in his time, including Alicent, Rhaenyra, and Laena.
However, Alicent wasn’t the wrong person; she was only a tool used by her father. There is no concrete evidence that Alicent and Prince Daemon had a relationship.
Highlighting The Relationship Of Daemon Targaryen
Daemon married Lady Rhea Royce at 16 at the behest of his grandmother, Queen Alysanne.
The couple didn’t have any children together, and they remained married for around 20 years.
Rhea passed away after an apparent riding accident, and Daemon is unwelcome in Rhea’s home of the Vale afterward.

Daemon’s second marriage was with Lady Laena Velaryon without his brother’s consent, King Viserys.
They welcomed twin daughters, Baela and Rhaena. But Laena passes away in childbirth, and Daemon becomes widowed with two young children.
Six months later, Deamon ties the knot with Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen.
It was rumored that Rhaenyra and Daemon plotted to fake Laenor’s passing so they could get married.
They welcome two sons, Aegon and Viserys, and Daemon becomes Rhaenyra’s supporter.
