Anakin's reaction and joy upon hearing Padme's pregnancy is beautiful and heartwarming. He and Padme truly loved their children and would've been great parents if not for Palpatine's manipulations.
He enjoys the adventure, he has many close friends in the order, and he genuinely strives to do good. As a result, he is loathed to risk it, but after he and Padme admit their feelings for one another in Attack of the Clones, Anakin marries her. He is willing to put the life he loves at risk for her.
Since Rush Clovis and Padmé used to have a relationship, long before she was secretly married to Anakin Skywalker, people assumed that he was the father because she rekindled her romance with Clovis, on the planet Scipio, around the time she became pregnant.
Why did Padme wait so long to tell Anakin she's pregnant?
However, she chose not to tell Anakin, presumably because he was about to go into a battle. Anakin was prone to letting his emotions affect him, and knowing that Padme was pregnant would've thrown him completely off the task. And Padme probably didn't think that her husband would be fighting battles for months to come.
Her and Anakin Skywalker had a 'secret' relationship; they had to keep it a secret due to the Jedi code and rules. In franchise's third film in The Skywalker Saga, Revenge of the Sith, Padmé is roughly 9 months pregnant with her and Anakin's set of twins, Luke and Leia.

What was Anakin's reaction to Padme's pregnancy?
Throughout this meeting between the two it's moody, mysterious, and foreboding. As soon as she says "I'm pregnant", this ominous violin starts as Anakin struggles to say anything positive. He stumbles over his words and seems to force a smile. Even as he's comforting Padme, the music doesn't seem very promising.
Being the low-wisdom guy that he was, he acted on his hatred immediately as Palapine encouraged him to do. He couldn't force-choke Obi-Wan (the one he really wanted to do it to), so he did it to Padme (the one he could do it to). Anakin believed Padme brought Obi Wan to kill him, and reacted instinctively.
Darth Vader awakens, and his first question is about the whereabouts of Padmé. Palpatine tells Darth Vader that in his anger he killed her, placing the blame for Padmé's death on Vader. Vader denies it, saying he sensed Padmé was still alive, which the audience knows she was as Obi-Wan escaped on the ship with her.
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.
Despite his mother being Padmé Amidala, a former queen and galactic hero, there is little mention in the Star Wars saga of Luke Skywalker learning about her life, or even being interested in finding out.
Anakin and Padmé met when Anakin was still just a young boy in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Though he was already infatuated with her then, it was a boyish crush — one that Padmé could not reciprocate at the time.
If Anakin had never fell in love with Padmé, he would've never turned to the Dark Side because it was his fear for losing Padmé and his two unborn children which caused him to be easily seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. It was his fear which made it much easier for Palpatine to manipulate Anakin.
Before Padmé's death, she still believed there was still good left in Anakin, and that one day he could be redeemed. During Anakin's time as the Emperor's enforcer, he continued to suffer from grief over Padmé's death, and guilt over his supposed hand in it.
Nonetheless, as she dies, Padme tells Obi-Wan that there is still good in Anakin. Even something as heinous as that couldn't fully break her love for Anakin.
Anakin does not have even the slightest bit of remorse. By the end, he feels nothing but anger. Although he feels regret for killing Padme, he still helps the evil Emperor. The film ends with Anakins standing side by side with the man on whose behalf he has committed all his crimes.
The whole reason for him turning to the dark side was to save Padme. So why didn't Vader almost immediately turn on Palpatine or just rejoin the light side after her death and the apparent death of his children? He had nothing to lose at this point and no reason to stay with the dark side.
The story is Anakin was manipulated to the dark side by Palpatine based on fears of losing Padme and appeals to his desire power and agency, over his life and the galaxy as a whole.
However, Kenobi did not understand the significance of her gesture, only understanding Amidala's basic feelings about it, and returned it to her. After her death, Amidala's body held the japor snippet during her funeral procession, and was buried alongside her body in a privately owned mausoleum.
Paul Duncan: It's implied that she lost heart. George Lucas: Yes. Her soul has been crushed. The thing that breaks Padme's heart in the end is that Anakin says to her: "Come and join me.
This time jump makes Padmé a very mature 24 years old, while Anakin is still a Jedi Padawan and teenager at the age of 19. This formidable time in their lives is when the romance between the two sparks, so the age difference between Padmé and Anakin doesn't hold them back.
This fell in line with various fan theories and non-canon novelizations that suggested Obi-Wan and Padmé had an affair sometime during the Clone Wars. In the Star Wars prequel movies, Obi-Wan often has a duty to protect Padmé, but there was never any sense of romantic feelings.
She was around 14 years of age. No, she did not groom him because their entire interaction basically amounted to about a couple weeks to a month, before a roughly 8 year separation. Originally Answered: When Anakin met Padme in Phantom Menace, how old was she?
