BERU LARS

If this is in fact the case, and Natalie Portman's characters (say Queen Zariel) younger sister is in fact Beru Lars, this would mean Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru are actually Luke's REAL Aunt and Uncle.  Obi-Wan Kenobi can still be Owen's brother, yet the pair can STILL be Luke's real aunt and uncle.  This makes perfect sense.  Beru Lars was probably formerly known as Princess Ellie or Princess Padme, younger sister of Queen Zariel who married Anakin Skywalker.  It would also make sense as to why Owen and Beru are looking after Luke. One of them (Beru) is related to Luke by blood, while the other one (Owen) even though he is not blood related, he is Ben Kenobi's brother.  Appropriate foster parents I think. Any comments?"
