How Game of Thrones Confirmed Jon Snow's Real Parents

Ned Stark dies for his honor in season one, and it's always been a mystery how such a good man, who seems so devoted to his wife and family, could cheat — and in his first year of marriage no less. We're reminded of that fact during season five when Stannis and his wife, Selyse, are discussing Jon, and she refers to him as the son of "some tavern slut." Stannis retorts, "Perhaps. That wasn't Ned Stark's way." No. It was not.
