Breha Organa/Legends

Breha Antilles Organa (c. 49 BBY – 0 ABY) was the wife of Bail Organa and both Queen and Minister of Education of Alderaan.

Biography
She was a member of the influential Alderaanian House of Antilles. Her father was former Senator Bail Antilles, and her brother was Raymus Antilles.

In 19 BBY, she and her husband adopted Leia Skywalker, the newborn daughter of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala. Through adoption, Leia became Princess Leia Organa.

In 4 ABY, Princess Leia said that her mother died when she was very young. Though she may have been referring to her birth mother (and it seems to be heavily implied by Luke's emphasis of "your real mother"), it is also possible that she was referring to her adoptive mother. This would mean that Queen Breha died well before the Destruction of Alderaan in 0 BBY.
