Nikolaj Coster-Waldau who plays Jaime Lannister gave his two cents on the twincestuous bun in the oven in a recent interview with IGN.

Coster-Waldau is on the fence about Cersei's pregnancy revelation, but thinks that Jaime whole-heartedly believes his sister's claim.

"I think Jaime believes her. He's shocked, of course, but he believes her because I think, when you look at Cersei, she actually seems surprisingly happy," said Coster-Waldau. "She hasn't been like this for as long as he can remember. There's actually a real glow in her eyes. She seems very believable."

Jaime experiences a moment of joy when Cersei reveals that she's pregnant. When he asks her who she'll say the father is, Cersei replies that she'll tell everyone that it's his.

"She gives him something that he's been wanting his whole life: there's been this enormous secret that he's carried with these children, and he's had to keep it locked up because it was too dangerous. And now she's saying this one is going to be different. You're going to be able to actually be a father, and not just for a second while you hold your dying girl in your arms, but this is going to be real."

With his first three children, Jaime was forced to stand by and watch as his children were brought up as Baratheon's. Myrcella was the only child to acknowledge Jaime as her father. It's a shame the revelation happened just moments before the Long Farewell poison took affect, killing her before Jaime got the chance to call her daughter.

It would be a very cruel thing for Cersei to dangle a baby in front of Jaime only to be lying about it, but this is Cersei we're talking about. Her capacity for ruthlessness shouldn't be underestimated.
