Who were Caesarion's parents? Caesarion was the child of Cleopatra and Caesar, although a few Classical authors, perhaps for political reasons, expressed doubts about his paternity. After Cleopatra's arrival in Rome in 46, Caesar himself, officially recognized the child as his son.

Yes, Cleopatra VII and Julius Caesar had one biological son, known as Ptolemy XV Caesar, commonly nicknamed Caesarion ("Little Caesar"). Born in 47 BC, Caesarion was the last pharaoh of Egypt, reigning alongside his mother from 44 BC until their deaths in 30 BC. Cleopatra hoped that Caesarion would eventually serve as the bridge between the Roman and Egyptian empires, effectively becoming the heir to his father's Roman legacy. However, after Caesar's assassination, his grand-nephew Octavian (the future Emperor Augustus) viewed Caesarion as a direct threat to his claim as Caesar's heir. Following the Battle of Actium and the fall of Alexandria, Octavian famously declared that "two Caesars are one too many" and ordered the execution of the 17-year-old Caesarion, effectively ending the Ptolemaic dynasty and the direct bloodline of Julius Caesar.
