Darth Vader didn't learn he had a daughter until Return of the Jedi, when he stood before Emperor Palpatine. The Emperor's power probed Luke's mind, attempting to goad him to fall to the dark side, and he discovered Leia's existence. "Sister," the Emperor taunted.
Vader discovers Leia is his daughter because of Luke.
It's not until Return of the Jedi, when Luke confronts Vader and the Emperor in the third act of the film, that the Sith Lord realizes his son is there to protect his twin sister.
Alderaan's princess knew she had been adopted by Bail and Breha Organa after the Clone Wars, but she had no idea who her parents were. That was until Luke Skywalker told her the truth - that he was the son of Darth Vader, and that she was his sister.
Does the third sister know Leia is Anakin's daughter?
She does not. Reva explicitly states that the reason she targeted Leia is because she knew Bail Organa and Obi Wan were friends during the Clone Wars, and correctly wagered that circumstances this extreme would prod Organa to contact Kenobi.
Yes, they did. Eventually, Leia contact her good friend Pooja Naberrie to discuss her mother so they definitely knew about Padmé Amidala and the fact she was their biological mother.

How did Anakin not know Leia was his daughter?
Leia's Force abilities and her lack of awareness of her true identity also contributed to Vader's inability to sense their familial connection. Vader's denial of Anakin Skywalker's legacy and his fear of getting hurt again prevented him from realizing the truth about his children until later in the original trilogy.
Leia was not using the Force or was currently Force-sensitive during her confrontation with Vader. She began training as a Jedi years later. All these reasons prove my point: Vader didn't know Leia was his daughter, and felt no presence of the Force in her, as she was not currently strong with the Force.
In Star Wars Legends Leia was visited by the force ghost of her father Anakin Skywalker, the man who used to be Darth Vader. It wasn't a pleasant meeting as Leia was unable to forgive him for the things he'd done no matter how hard he begged, and it was the only time she saw him.
Yes. In the book 'Tatooine Ghost', Leia learns of Anakin's life prior to his evolution into the Darth Vader personae. This revelation leads her to forgive him. She even named her third child in memory of her father.
Anakin Skywalker never knew Padmé was pregnant with twins, and he believed his child had died with his wife. He had no idea Padmé had given birth before she died, still less that the Jedi had spirited the children away and hidden them.
He eventually became so desperate to find a way to prevent Padmé from dying that his fear was ultimately the main reason that led to his fall to the dark side. Vader screaming for the loss of Padmé. Even as a Sith Lord, Anakin still loved Padmé very much, but felt great guilt for his actions against her.
Luke and Leia never sensed that they were twins until Return of the Jedi despite both being sensitive to the Force. Anakin Skywalker's twin children are the original Star Wars trilogy's driving force, having been separated after Padme's death.
Luke and Leia weren't Clones either, which is the other means of reproducing in SW. They were non-identical twins, they weren't grown in a vat like the Clone Troopers but born as a result of a normal pregnancy. So yeah, Anakin and Padme obviously had sex at least once, but since SW is for kids we don't need to see it.
Anakin's Force Choke begins the series of injuries that ultimately leads to Padme's death, and convinces Obi-Wan to fight him. Despite this, when Anakin learns of Padme's death, his immediate reaction of grief and regret shatters everything in the lab with a powerful force shockwave.
He terrorized the galaxy at his masters side for over twenty years. Luke however did forgive his father, Anakin Skywalker. He knew he was manipulated by Sidious. That his father was a good person.
No. Neither Luke nor Leia found out they were siblings until the third film, Return of the Jedi. Indeed, it wasn't decided that they were siblings until the making of that film (because Lucas no longer wanted to make further sequels about a search for Luke's sister, and decided to wrap everything up with Jedi).
Bail Organa and Obi-Wan fabricated Padme's death and the twins' story to keep Luke and Leia hidden after the events of Revenge of the Sith. By maintaining the secret, the twins remained safe, eventually allowing them to orchestrate the Emperor's downfall and the Rebellion's victory.
While in the Ewok village, Luke revealed his true lineage to Leia. She was shocked to discover they were brother and sister, though deep down, she always knew this to be true.
In canon, Vader found out because Luke told Boba Fett that he was “Luke Skywalker.” This was explained in the canon comic Star Wars (2015) 5. Vader only sensed Leia was Luke's sister because Luke was thinking about her on the Death Star II. When Vader tortu…
Here, Vader employs mind-altering drugs and subliminal suggestion in his sessions with the princess, which make Leia believe that her skin is on fire and her flesh being torn apart, causing the same reaction the real thing would. An altered version was presented in the current Star Wars canon.
