But it wouldn't make sense or be well written. There's writing a twist, and there's rewriting half a character's story. There has been endless groundwork laid for R+L=J and throwing that away would be... pointless. Also, we barely know anything about Ashara; why would she suddenly be of such great importance to the narrative, much less the mother of the main protagonist? And what impact would that have on Jon's story?
The show is so far removed from the books at this point that GRRM could be speaking about anyone. I've always kinda thought it might be about Stannis.
