Star Wars · Question
What is the name of Anakin’s wife?
Answer
Padmé Amidala
The story behind the answer
Anakin secretly marries Naboo’s former queen and later senator at the end of Attack of the Clones, defying the Jedi Code against attachment. Shmi Skywalker is his mother, Leia Organa is his daughter, and Ahsoka Tano is his Padawan—none are his spouse.
Their clandestine marriage shapes the saga: during the Clone Wars, his fear of losing her drives his descent to the dark side and transformation into Darth Vader. She dies after giving birth to twins, whose separation and later reunion become central to the original trilogy.
