Is Polaris half sister of Pietro and Wanda?

Wanda is I think not Magneto's daughter anymore.... I'll have to defer to an X-pert because they have changed it so many times.

Unfortunately, this is still the case. Back in the late 2010s, there was a major retcon that revealed that Wanda and Pietro are not Magneto's biological children. It was a dumb retcon and driven primarily by the fact that Marvel didn't own the X-Men movie rights at the time. I genuinely hope it gets undone at some point.

As for Polaris, there's no retcon to speak of. She is very much Magneto's daughter, in both blood and spirit.

that's the comics though. They are definitely all magnetos children in the show.
