The Familial Bond of Clary and Jace

When it comes to the Shadowhunters, Clary and Jace have always been close. They both share a bond that is unique, and their connection as adopted siblings has made them almost inseparable. But recent revelations have revealed that these two are not related by blood.

In the 11th episode of Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments, viewers were finally given the answer to the question “Are Clary and Jace siblings?” It was revealed that while Valentine Morgenstern is Clary’s biological father, Jace was actually born to Stephen and Celine Herondale. This means that while they may still consider each oter brother and sister, they are not actually related.

Valentine had raised Jace as his own son since he was a baby and had even altered his memories so that he believed they were real siblings. However, Valentine had also done experiments on his own son Sebastian Morgenstern, who was born with demon blood due to the experiments conducted by him. This further solidified the fact that Jace is not rlated to Clary or Sebastian by blood.

Despite this revelation, it hasn’t changed the relationship between Clary and Jace in any way. Even though they are not biologically related, there is still a strong connection between them due to their shared experiences in Idris and beyond. Unlike other siblings who share only a familial bond, these two have created a friendship built on trust and loyalty which can never be broken by something as trivial as blood relation or lack thereof.

Clary’s Brother

Clary Fairchild’s actual brother is Sebastian Morgenstern. He is the son of Valentine and Jocelyn, born Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern. Due to Valentine’s experiments on him, Sebastian was born a Shadowhunter with demon blood. This gave him a range of supernatural abilities that made him particularly powerful in battle. While he was initially perceived as an enemy by Clary and her friends, his true identity as Clary’s brother was eventually revealed.
