The True Relationship of Jace and Clary

Jace and Clary have been the subject of much debate over the years. Fans of both The Mortal Instruments series and Shadowhunters television show have long pondered the relationship between these two characters. There has been much speculation about their connection, with some believing that they are related in some way, while others suspecting that this is not the case.

The truth is that Jace and Clary are not related by blood. In The Mortal Instruments series, Jace learns from Valentine (Clary’s father) that he was adopted when he was young, wich means he is not biologically related to Clary. Similarly, in the Shadowhunters television show, Hodge reveals to viewers that Valentine intended to lie and only lead Jace and Clary to believe they are siblings. This means that although Jace was raised by Valentine as if he were a son, he is in fact not related to Clary at all.

The fact that Jace and Clary were not actually siblings was kept from the readers until the third book of The Mortal Instruments series, City of Glass. With the “truth sword” still in Valentine’s hands, Jace also learned he wasn’t his son, and was thus not Clary’s brother. Although this news initially came as a shock to both characters, it allowed them to explore a romantic relationship without any fear of incestuous implications.

Ultimately then, we can say with certainty that Jace and Clary are not related in any way whatsoeer – genetically or otherwise!
