It's clear that Darth Vader wishes that Padmé joined him so that they could have remained together. But there are moments in Marvel's other Darth Vader series that suggest that, while the Sith Lord is very much still obsessed with the idea of Padmé, her betrayal may have caused him to think ill of his late wife.
In the Star Wars prequel trilogy, it is clear that Anakin Skywalker, who later becomes Darth Vader, had a strong emotional attachment to Padmé Amidala.
Though Anakin's affection for Padmé was always sullied by darkness, in the end, it led to one of the truest forms of love that Anakin had ever known and Star Wars has ever seen — that between a father and a son.
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.
Before he could enter, however, Vader was stopped by Sabé, Eirtaé, Rabé, Saché, and Dormé, former handmaidens of Amidala, who refused to let him enter into the grave so he would not desecrate it. However, Vader would not be denied. As he entered the tomb, he became flooded with memories of Amidala.
Darth Vader's Reaction to Learning of Padme's Death - Revenge of the Sith - Star Wars Explained
Why did Vader not go to Padmé's funeral?
TheLightSide Jedi Youngling
Vader is too grief-stricken about his mother to EVER step foot on Tatooine, even though the plans for the Death Star are there. Vader is too grief-stricken to EVER go to Naboo to go to his wife's grave. Typho is far, far too grief-stricken to go to Padme's funeral.
He had no idea Padmé had given birth before she died, still less that the Jedi had spirited the children away and hidden them. Darth Vader's illusions were shattered shortly after the destruction of the first Death Star.
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.
Anakin truly did care for Padme, except Anakin was not at all in his right mind when he choked her. Anakin has many issues, he has tramua both from war and childhood, he has sever fear of loss and he is extremely loyal to the ones he chooses to befriend. This all comes into play in this moment when he chokes her.
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.
What he did not see, at the time at least, was that Padmé used her last breaths to tell Obi-Wan that she was certain that in regards to her husband, "there's still good in him." Now, those words are set to be revealed to someone other than Darth Vader himself.
Thus, he never had any romantic relationships again after Padme's death. Even if he wanted to, I highly doubt he could have after all the injuries he sustained on Mustafar, anyway. If this were real life, he would have died on Mustafar after Obi-Wan chopped off his limbs and left him to burn alive.
Padmé was born in 46 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin) and Anakin's miraculous Force-created birth came in 41 BBY, so Padmé is five years older than him. They do not meet until Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, which takes place in 32 BBY.
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.
There's a scene on Naboo where Anakin and Padme discuss their feelings for each other and Padme refuses to "live a lie" with Anakin and secretly have an affair despite the rules of the jedi.
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?
However, when it comes to who Darth Vader hates more than anyone in the Star Wars galaxy, himself and Obi-Wan Kenobi don't hold a candle to the true point of Darth Vader's hatred, Emperor Palpatine.
tragically, he was not able to resurrect Padme. because she refused to go with him. due to his inability to let go, telling him she didn't know him anymore, jumping away from him to her death.
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.
Leia Organa never knew her mother Padmé - but Star Wars comics have made Padmé's memory even more heartbreaking after Rise of Skywalker. Marvel's Star Wars comics have made Leia and Padmé's relationship even more tragic. Leia Organa never knew her mother, Padmé Amidala.
Over one year after the battle of Endor, Anakin appeared as a forest ghost in front of Leia. to ask her for forgiveness. When Leia saw him, she was horrified. and could not find it in her to accept him. She remembered all the people he slaughtered, what happened to Alderon, and the thing that bothered her the most.
Her body was made to still look pregnant in order to keep Luke and Leia safe from their father, Darth Vader, the Dark Lord of the Sith formerly known as Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, who fell to the dark side of the Force in a failed attempt to save his wife from dying.
