However, George Lucas has offered some clarification on this saying, "Jedi Knights aren't celibate - the thing that is forbidden is attachments - and possessive relationships." It's a game-changing revelation.
Lucas said the Jedi are not celibates, they are forbidden from attachments and possessive relationships (the two are identical, don't confuse love with attachment). So they can have romantic love and all what comes with that, but they can't let themselves to be influenced by their personal feelings.
The director has, on several occasions, confirmed that Jedi were not expected to be celibate, but were expected to abstain from forming strong personal attachments to other beings. In Lucas's words, it's "possessive relationships" that cloud the judgment of a Jedi -- as was the case with Anakin and Padme.
Although the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones established that the Jedi Order members couldn't marry or have children, Star Wars creator George Lucas explained that despite their monastic culture, the Jedi were permitted to have sexual intercourse as long they didn't form attachments or possessive ...
George Lucas explained, the Jedi are trained, allowed, and expected to love people, even their enemies, the Sith, but they are not supposed to form attachments. Attachment connoted possession and the inability to let go, thus, it wasn't love, and led to the dark side of the Force.
In the Jedi Order, emotional attachment and possession were forbidden because it was believed they could lead to jealousy and fear of loss, and ultimately the dark side of the Force; for that reason, Jedi were not allowed to marry.
During one of these missions she would break the Jedi Code's rule of attachment by falling in love with Darman, RC-1136, a clone commando in Omega Squad, and becoming pregnant with his child, Venku Skirata. The two would later marry in the traditional Mandalorian way shortly before her death in 19 BBY.

Andur and Nomi Sunrider married when he was a Knight and she a senior apprentice. She stopped her training when she became pregnant, but resumed after giving birth to their daughter Vima, who also eventually became a Jedi.
However, the Jedi Order made an exception to this rule and allowed one Jedi Master to marry for practical reasons, not love. This character was Ki-Adi-Mundi, and he didn't merely break the Jedi code — he fully smashed it by having five wives and seven children.
During the High Republic Era, the Jedi maintained the ideals of avoiding attachment but made sure to show great acts of compassion towards those who were suffering, such as offering hugs to those who were grieving.
Under the original order, Jedi were forbidden to marry because they believed attachment could lead an individual to the dark side, as was the case with Shaela Nuur.
This is the most well-known of the Jedi rules. Love leads to attachment and attachment leads to strong emotions, which are the path to the Dark Side of the Force. Because of this, Jedi are forbidden to fall in love. This, of course, doesn't stop Anakin Skywalker from falling in love with Padmé.
They consider attachment that came with marriage to be dangerous, despite the most pure and genuine intentions. Attachment and possession were forbidden by the Jedi Order because they could lead to jealousy and fear of loss, which would eventually lead to the dark side of the Force.
Like all Cereans, Mundi practiced polygamy due to the 1-to-20 male-to-female ratio among his species. Mundi first married Shea, his bond-wife, and later married four honor-wives, including Mawin.
Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi was the most famous member of the family. Due to the low Cerean birthrate, he was allowed by the other Jedi to follow the Cerean custom of polygamous marriage—he had four honor wives and seven daughters.
Venku Skirata was born on the planet Mandalore, the son of the Jedi Etain Tur-Mukan and clone commando Darman Skirata. The child's father, Darman, did not know that Etain was pregnant, and was unaware he had a son until a year after the child's birth.
After Qiilura, Etain became a full Jedi Knight. She spent some time serving with both Omega Squad and Delta Squad, both on Coruscant and elsewhere. She also married Darman, RC-1136, a Clone Commando in Omega Squad, with whom she had a son, Venku Skirata.
Cut Lawquane was a clone trooper who fought for the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. Shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis, Lawquane's transport was attacked by Separatist gunships, leaving his fellow soldiers either dead or injured. Lawquane fled, deserting the army, and later married Suu Lawquane.
Nevertheless, there were those who continued to harbor anti-Jedi views. One such person was Sconto, the son of a clone trooper who died in the Clone Wars. Holding the Jedi responsible for his father's death, he regarded them as power-hungry renegades and violent traitors who the clones were right to eliminate.
Both Ahsoka and Anakin were highly respected by the clones assigned to them. Both became close friends with Captain Rex in particular. Plo Koon and the Wolffe Pack were also close, as shown in this exchange of dialogue: ““We're just clones, sir.
These episodes prove that Anakin's feelings for Padmé were overly possessive, jealous, and self-absorbed, especially when Anakin came face to face with Rush Clovis, an ex-senator and banker who harbored romantic feelings for Padmé.
