Position:Home>Theater & Acting> I have heard arguments that Juliet was pregnant in Romeo and Juliet?Question:Can anyone tell me the references in the play that support or debunk this argument? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Can anyone tell me the references in the play that support or debunk this argument? I had never heard this but it might not have been uncommon in that day for such a thing to happen the entire thing happened in like 5 days... if she was pregnant by romeo, she wouldn't have known within 5 days.. Since they were married and died quite soon after making love, there would really have been no way to know. No. It is not even apparent that they make love- its always assumed. And one of the other answers is right- it does take place within a week. Then they die. Juliet wasn't even 14 yet in the play- we don't even know if she's able to be pregnant. |
