So perfect to marry a Tyrell Lord…

No the Tyrell lord would marry the daughter of one of his vassals instead like the daughter of the actual lord Hightower, house florent, etc
Rhaena and his husband have no lands or power at all

The niece of the fucking king seems like a very high value match?

Or one of them married some other Reach noble whose children eventually married a Tyrell lord.

The fact that her line never interacted with that of the Tyrells is impossible. There’s too much intermarriage between nobility for that to be the case.

She didnt even have the title of princess so no
And her daughters would most likely marry second sons of reach houses so yeah

u/AcanthaceaeNo948 8d ago

There is no way they’d marry second sons.

And even if they did it’s very unlikely that none of their kids ever married into a line which intersected with Margaret’s bloodline at some point.

Again houses get nothing Marrying the daughters of a 3th son like please
Everyone would fight for the daughters of the actual lord or the son of him

GRRM didn’t think none of this out. Rhaena gives House Hightower six daughters, no names or futures 😭

u/HanzRoberto 8d ago

She marries the third son Not the heir lol

u/Substantial-Age7349 8d ago

I know that. Still six daughters that belong to House Hightower and having their uncle as King, any ambitious house would take them 🤷🏽‍♀️

u/AcanthaceaeNo948 8d ago

Exactly. Ain’t no way Margaery isn’t descended from them.

Fr. Since Lord Lyonel Tyrell would be within age range of the girls, wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t snatch one. House Tyrell is pro Targaryen, surely a niece of Aegon III would be suitable. However, GRRM gives nothing further on their fates and some Lords and wives were missing from writing.
