No, his mom is a love interest for Picard, and he has a lot of affection for Wesley, but they are not related.

Iirc Picard knew Wesley's father, and the time he met Beverly was when he went to inform her of Wesley's father's death.

No. But let's just say Wesley's dad isn't who you think, and that his true biological father ghosted Beverly.

I stopped to say I fucking love this theory but yeah that'd be an insane thing to twist
