Leon S. Kennedy has a ‘place to go home to,’ and RE9’s director would like you to end your fanfic queries there (knowing full well that you won’t)

The mystery of Leon Kennedy's wedding ring has been circulating around Resident Evil 9 discussions since the game first came out. We see the character put a ring on at the conclusion of one of the endings, implying that he is, in fact, no longer that bachelor rookie we've come to know but a man who's, at least in some respect, settled down.

Who holds the other ring is never stated, but fans have created loads of theories about who Lady Kennedy might be. The most common argument points to Ada Wong, whom Leon comes in contact with time and again throughout the games and even shares a kiss with in Resident Evil 2. There's a lot more to it than I'm letting on, but that's the leading theory. But the game's director, Koshi Nakanishi, doesn't think the identity of the person matters as much as the fact that Leon has some place to call home.
